animal feed is used to make more animals which humans eat. Im not saying I know that this would affect China for sure, but you cant take a major producer out of a market or increase their price substantially and expect no effect

Mexico and Canada would be hurt much more, prices would go up, meat would be more expensive in China, but...global starvation wouldn’t occur. There are plenty of net surplus exporters out there, and what they add are mostly luxuries.
