Win for UK feed industry trade group on molasses tariffs UK livestock farmers and suppliers who use molasses in feed will benefit from a UK government decision to remove the tariff on imports of such products.
Feed industry representative body in the UK, the Agricultural Industries Confederation (AIC), said it had lobbied hard for the tariff to be dropped.
It took four months of work; the trade group actively engaged with the UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) and the UK Department of International Trade (DIT) to get the duties removed. The AIC and several of its members provided submission of evidence to demonstrate the need for elimination of those duties.
