Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers

AGENCY: Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), today denied 
a petition for trade adjustment assistance (TAA) that was filed on 
February 2, 2004, by a group of citrus producers in California.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jean-Louis Pajot, Coordinator, Trade 
Adjustment Assistance for Farmers, FAS, USDA, (202) 720-2916, e-mail: 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Upon investigation, the Administrator 
determined that increasing imports of clementines did not contribute 
importantly to the decline in domestic producer prices of navel oranges 
during the November 2002-May 2003 marketing year. The leading and prime 
factor contributing to the price decline according to an investigation 
conducted for the Administrator was increased domestic production.

    Dated: March 4, 2004.
A. Ellen Terpstra,
Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service.
