Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers

AGENCY:

Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA.

ACTION:

Notice.

The Administrator of the Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) today accepted and began a review of a petition for trade adjustment assistance filed under the FY 2011 Program by three wool producers on behalf of wool producers in Montana. The Administrator will determine within 40 days whether increasing imports of wool contributed importantly to a greater than 15-percent decrease in the average annual price of wool, quantity or production, value of production, or cash receipts, compared to the average of the 3 preceding marketing years. If the determination is affirmative, producers who produce and market wool in Montana will be eligible to apply to the Farm Service Agency for free technical assistance and cash benefits.
