The measure, published on 14 January 2025 under Regulation (EC) No. 74/2025, has raised concerns in the EU livestock and feed sector due to its potential economic and supply impact.

FEFAC President Pedro Cordero highlighted that the European Union depends on China for 60% of its lysine demand, equivalent to approximately 500,000 tons annually.

According to Cordero, the provisional tariffs, described as “extremely high,” could lead to significant market imbalances.
