Adjustment Assistance for Farmers
AGENCY:
Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA.
The Administrator of the
Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) today
accepted and began a review of a petition for
trade adjustment assistance filed under the
Fiscal Year 2011 program by the Wild
Blueberry Commission of Maine on behalf of
blueberry producers in Maine. The Administrator
will determine within 40 days whether increasing
imports of blueberries contributed importantly
to a greater than 15-percent decrease in the
average annual price of blueberries compared to
the average of the three preceding marketing
years. If a determination is affirmative,
producers who produce and market blueberries in
Maine will be eligible to apply to the Farm
Service Agency for free technical assistance and
cash benefits.
