AFBF's Duvall Disappointed in ITC Ruling and Corn Acreage Climbs

From the Ag Information Network, I’m Bob Larson with your Agribusiness Update.
**American Farm Bureau Federation President Zippy Duvall is disappointed by the International Trade Commissions ruling on blueberry imports.
Duvall says the ITC failed to recognize the damage certain imports are doing.
He says these farmers face unfair competition from foreign growers and the decision demonstrates much work is still needed to address international trade imbalances.
Duvall says they’ll continue working with USDA, USTR and the Department of Commerce to find meaningful assistance for our domestic blueberry industry.
