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.

Division, Pennsylvania Depart
ment of Agriculture, 2301 N.
