PBS News Weekend

Season 3, Episode 3 of 86

On Saturday, NewsHour Weekend examines how the acquisition of America's largest pork producer by a Chinese company fits into China's plan to modernize its food industry. Even after the Chinese government announced the largest agrarian reforms in world history in an effort to feed its citizens, consumption is still skyrocketing as more people move into the middle class. Now, in the country that consumes half of all the world's pork, the government is tasked with improving the quality and security of its food supply. That, and the weekend's news, online and on-air.
