Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers
AGENCY: Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA
ACTION: Notice
The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service
(FAS), today accepted a petition filed by the A. Sam Farm Inc, Dunkirk, New
York, for trade adjustment assistance. The petitioner represents a group of
cabbage producers in New York. The Administrator will determine within 40 days
whether or not imports of cabbages contributed importantly to a decline in
domestic producer prices of more than 20 percent during the marketing year
period beginning January 2003 through December 2003. If the determination is
positive, all cabbage producers in New York will be eligible to apply to the
Farm Service Agency for technical assistance at no cost and for adjustment
assistance payments.
