| Jiangsu: TCM
Export Decreased, Herb Export Increased (Last update: 04/24/2001) |
| According to
the statistics from customs, the total export quantity of tradition
Chinese medicines (TCM) in the first quarter 2001 in Jiangsu Province,
one of the largest TCM production bases in China, was only 224MT,
decreased 39.1% over the same period last year. While the total export
quantity of herbs in the same period was 5,037MT, increased 5.1% over
the same period last year. The main reasons are that the Chinese manufacturers
pay less attention to the certification and promotion of TCM in the
oversea market while USA and European countries begin to pay attention
to Chinese herbs in the recent years. (Source: International Economic
