Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers

AGENCY: Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

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

    The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), today 
accepted a petition filed by National Grape Cooperative Association 
representing New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio Concord juice grape 
producers for trade adjustment assistance. The Administrator will 
determine within 40 days whether or not increasing imports of grape 
juice, not concentrated, contributed importantly to a decline in 
domestic producer prices of 20 percent or more during the marketing 
period beginning August 1, 2005, and ending July 31, 2006. If the 
determination is positive, all Concord juice grape producers who 
produce and market their Concord juice grapes in New York, 
Pennsylvania, and Ohio will be eligible to apply to the Farm Service 
Agency for no cost technical assistance and for adjustment assistance 
payments.
