Japan and China failed to break an impasse over a trade dispute stemming from curbs on three farm imports mainly from China as they resumed public and private-sector talks Wednesday, Japanese officials said.
The two sides will continue their talks today, the last of the current 200-day emergency curbs imposed by Tokyo on leeks, shiitake and tatami rushes, they said.
The talks -- involving government officials and representatives of farm producers -- resumed in line with a decision last Thursday by senior officials of both countries to continue negotiations.
