Pork Group Supports Passage of Panama FTA

The National Pork Producers Council says a U.S. trade agreement with Panama will provide new market opportunities for a wide range of American agricultural products and it will level the playing field for U.S. pork producers and other food producers.

In testimony last week, NPPC President-Elect Sam Carney told members of the Senate Finance Committee that implementing the trade agreement will not only level the playing field but will also open to U.S. pork producers, other agricultural sectors and U.S. businesses a market of almost 3.4 million consumers.
