"No October figures are available for Australia."
I just calculated the October figures for Australia, based on the past data:
Now, of the total import of 18,600 tons in October:
6,023 tons from the
Netherlands, accounted for 32.4%,
a drop of 26.3% as compared with October last year;
2,760 tons from Ireland, accounted for 14.8%, an increase of 59.5%;
2,052 tons from
New Zealand, accounted for 11%, an increase of
85.1%;
1,864 tons from Germany, accounted for 10%, an increase of 38.3%;
1,575 tons from Denmark, accounted for 8.5%, an increase of 35.5%.
and 1.205 tons from
Australia, accounted 6.5%, an increase of
96.3%.

As we can see from these figures and the figures before, the demand for overseas IF in China is still very strong, and there is no sigh for the demand to decline in the short and medium term...
And New Zealand and Australia have been doing particularly well in China, as compared with other countries...
So, I really don't understand why people have got so worried!?
