Pork Producers Praise
Busjh Initiative
WASHINGTON, D.C. The
National Pork Producers Council
called President Bush’s initiative
to expand the Export Enhance
ment Program (EEP) for pork “a
historcially significant event for
the meat industry in this country.
It sets a precedent it’s the first
time that this approach has ever
been used to fight the unfair com
petition that we face around the
world in the global market for
meat,” said Tim Rose, president of
the NPPC.
Rose said during a national tele
conference that President Bush’s
initiative “also reflects a new
commitment to value-added
exports in this country, something
that we feel has been needed for a
long time. We hope it’s the begin
ning of the process to turn around
our net importer status in this
country. This EEP is just for the
former Soviet Union ... but we
hope to look at other markets
where tools like EEPs can help us
fight unfair competition.”
President Bush directed the
Agriculture Department to use the
EEP to make available American
produced pork products to the for
mer Soviet Union. “This initiative
will enable an otherwise competi
tibe U.S. industry to fight unfair
competition and gain an important
market share in a potentially vast
market,” Bush said.
During the teleconference.
Rose cited the importance of
exporting value-added agricultur
al products. EEP benefits include
knocking down unfair trade prac
tices; opening up foreign markets

to American producers; sending a
strong signal to Europeans that the
United States won’t concede their
heavily-subsidized maikets; help
ing turn around American’s status
as a net importer of pork; and
expanding domestic jobs through
supportive industries, such as
com, feed, and soybeans.
During Congressional testi
mony recently, Rosa said that
“value-added agricultural exports
mean greatly expanded economic
activity, increased tax revenues
for the Treasury, as well as signif
icantly increasing employment
opportunities.”
