Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers
AGENCY: Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA.
ACTION: Notice.
The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural
Service (FAS), today accepted a petition, and
began a review of a petition, for trade
adjustment assistance by the North Carolina
Commercial Flower Growers Association on behalf
of cut lily producers in Georgia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. The
Administrator will determine within 40 days
whether or not increasing imports of lilies
contributed importantly to a greater than 15
percent decrease in cash receipts for lilies
compared to the average of the 3 preceding
marketing years. If a determination is
affirmative, producers who produce and market
cut lilies in Georgia, North Carolina, South
Carolina, and Virginia will be
eligible to apply to the Farm Service Agency for
technical assistance at no cost and cash
benefits.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Trade
Adjustment Assistance Staff,
FAS, USDA, at (202) 720-0638, or by e-mail at:
tradeadjustment@fas.usda.gov. Additional
program information can be
obtained at the Web site for the Trade
Adjustment Assistance for
Farmers program. The URL is
