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 Fiscal Year 2011 program by 3 tilapia 
producers on behalf of tilapia producers in Arkansas. The Administrator 
will determine within 40 days whether increasing imports of tilapia 
contributed importantly to a greater than 15-percent decrease in the 
average annual price of tilapia, quantity of production, value of 
production, or cash receipts, compared to the average of the three 
preceding marketing years. If a determination is affirmative, producers 
who produce and market tilapia in Arkansas will be eligible to apply to 
the Farm Service Agency for free technical assistance and cash 
benefits.
