    The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), today 
accepted a petition filed by a group of fresh cut snapdragon producers 
for trade adjustment assistance. The Administrator will determine 
within 40 days whether or not increasing snapdragon imports contributed 
importantly to a decline in domestic producer prices of 20 percent or 
more during the marketing period beginning January 1, 2004, and ending 
December 31, 2004. If the determination is positive, all producers who 
produce and market their fresh cut snapdragons in Indiana will be 
eligible to apply to the Farm Service Agency for no cost technical 
assistance and for adjustment assistance payments.
