Ag export session planned HARRISBURG Interested in exporting food or an agricultural product? Then make plans to at tend the ninth Pennsylvania In ternational Trade Conference October 21-23 at the Hyatt Hotel in Pittsburgh. The Monday afternoon session features an export project initiated by the Foreign Agriculture Service (FAS) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture - AIMS. Pennsylvania is one of eight pilot states testing the Agricultural Information and Marketing Service program. FAS representative Michael J. Dwyer will lead the AIMS discussion. The 18-month pilot program involves expanded telecommunications links with overseas ag offices; international marketing profiles which include information on commodities, purchasing and marketing trends, importers and FAS export ser vices; and reverse trade leads which allow Pennsylvania firms to electronically offer a product to buyers in England and Japan. “Increasing Pennsylvania’s share of the agriculture and food export market has been a priority goal to expand economic development in the com monwealth,” state Agriculture Secretary Penrose Hallowell said. “For example, Pennsylvania’s processed foods account for more than $2OO million in exports an nually, and this figure has the potential to double. Total Penn sylvania agricultural exports exceed $6OO million. This is a good record, but we can make it better,” Hallowell said. Other sessions include developing successful export trade plans, an analysis of the world recovery, and how to use govern ment agencies to develop export markets. The conference theme is “Ex port Strategy and the World Recovery.” Keynote speaker for the meeting is Dr. Marvin Cetron, president of Forecasting In ternational. A pioneer in corporate strategic planning, Dr. Cetron has written several books. For additional information on this conference or the AIMS project, contact Ms. Gretchen A. Vreeland, Export Development Division, Pennsylvania Depart ment of Agriculture, 2301 N. Cameron Street, Harrisburg, PA 17110-9408; telephone (717) 783- 8460.
