URBANA, 11. Increasing trade
protectionism in the form of
proposed European vegetable oil
taxes and Spanish import quotas
threatens to further erode soybean
profits for U.S. farmers.
“The European Community
purchases nearly two of every 10
rows of/soybeans grown in the
U. 5.,” former American Soybean
Association Chairman Allan Aves
said in remarks prepaired for a
hearing before Senator Charles
Percy (R-IL) Friday, October 16.
“Any loss of our European market
would greatly damage the
financial stability of U.S. farmers
who are already reeling from low
prices, increasing costs and high
interest charges.
"As a result of the. tremendous
impact, these two issues have not
only for farmers, but also for the
U.S, economy, we believe the

European trade concessions
during the 1982 Dillon Round ot the
multinational trade negotiations.
“With a guaranteed free market
.access,' soybean farmers—in
cooperation with USDA’s Foreign
Agricultural Service—have in
vested their checkoff dollars to
build this market,” Aves, a
Kirkland, Illinois farmer, saidr
“U.S. soybean exports to Europe
have doubled smce farmers began
soybean checkoffs in 1966. And, the
value of soybeans and soybean
product exports to the European
Community have increased from
less than $lOO million in 1962 to

soybean farmers
discussed Spanish vegetable oil
quotas. As a result Spanish quotas,
Spain is exporting more than
400,000 metric tons of soybean oil
processed in Spam from soybeans
imported mainly from the United
States.
“These discriminatory, and we
believe, illegal, quotas have
allowed Spain to export huge
amounts of soybean oil at sub
sidized rates to markets in North
Africa and elsewhere,” Aves said
in his statement. .“The Spanish
soybean oil exports have greatly
reduced U.S. soybean oil exports
which have resulted in substantial

“U.S. soybean farmers as well

enormous stake in the export of

Aves said. “We’re oleased that at
