China has blocked Richardson International and Viterra's rapeseed from entering the customs, claiming that pests were detected in the rapeseed shipments of the two companies. Both companies are among the largest exporters of agricultural products in Canada. Other rapeseed shipments to be shipped to China have been cancelled, forcing exporters to resell the goods at low prices.

Canadian politicians have said that China’s fears are groundless and mentioned that after Canada’s request to arrest China’s Huawei executive Meng Xingzhou in December last year, China detained two Canadians. China used to use non-tariff barriers when foreign relations were tense. The most recent one was for Australian coal.

Traders now say that Canadian soybeans and peas face unusual obstacles. Ottawa also warned last week that China blocked Canadian pork imports through formalities.

China is the biggest buyer of most agricultural products in Canada. The growing tension between China and Canada has forced farmers to switch to other crops such as wheat. It is hoped that these products will not face barriers. China bought $2.7 billion ($2.01 billion) worth of rapeseed and $514 million in pork from Canada last year.

Indeed, the spread of African swine fever in Chinese pig farms has reduced the demand for rapeseed and soybeans in the Chinese feed industry.
