China soybean imports leapt in May from the previous month as buyers scooped up purchases from Brazil’s bumper harvest, but were still in line with the same month last year, despite markets concerns over a U.S. trade war. China imported 9.69 million tonnes of the oilseed in May, up from April’s 6.9 million tonnes, but just 1 percent higher than in May last year. China jan-may soybean imports at 36.17 mln tonnes.
