Pakistan's Donkeys in High Demand in China for Ejiao Production

Why Pakistan’s donkeys are becoming valuable in China: What is driving this surprising demand

Pakistani donkeys are increasingly valuable due to rising Chinese demand for ejiao. China's own donkey population struggles to meet the demand for this traditional product. Pakistan has become a key part of this international supply chain after finalizing export protocols. The rising prices of donkeys impact local families who depend on them for livelihoods. This situation highlights the complex intersection of local needs and global trade.
