Trade Adjustment Assistance for 

Farmers 

AGENCY: Foreign Agricultural Service, 

USDA. 

ACTION: Notice. 

On March 22, 2007, the 

Administrator, Foreign Agricultural 

Service (FAS), denied a petition for 

trade adjustment assistance (TAA) that 

was filed on February 16, 2007, by the 

Burley Tobacco Growers Cooperative 

Association and the Burley Stabilization 

Corporation, representing burley 

tobacco producers in Kentucky, 

Tennessee, Virginia, North Carolina, 

West Virginia, Indiana, Ohio, and 

Missouri. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Upon 

investigation, the Administrator 

determined the predominant reason for 

the decline in the burley tobacco price 

was the termination of the Tobacco 

Buyout Program in 2005, and that 

imports did not contribute importantly 

to the decline in price. Therefore, the 

burley tobacco petition did not meet the 

statutory requirement that imports 

contributed importantly to a decline in 

producer price.

ACTION: Notice. 

On March 22, 2007, the 

Administrator, Foreign Agricultural 

Service (FAS), denied a petition for 

trade adjustment assistance (TAA) for 

avocados that was filed on February 17, 

2007, by the California Avocado 

Commission. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Upon 

investigation, the Administrator 

determined that imports from Mexico 

for the November 1, 2005, through 

October 31, 2006, marketing year 

declined by 2 percent from the same 

period in 2005/2006. Since imports 

declined during the marketing year, the 

petition did not meet the increasing 

imports requirement, a condition 

required for certifying a petition for 

TAA.

ACTION: Notice. 

On March 22, 2007, the 

Administrator, Foreign Agricultural 

Service (FAS), denied a petition for 

trade adjustment assistance (TAA) for 

Michigan natural honey, white or 

lighter, that was filed on February 16, 

2007, by a group of apiarists. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Upon 

investigation, the Administrator 

determined that prices did not decline 

by at least 20 percent for the most recent 

marketing year compared to previous 5- 

year average. During the 2005 marketing 

year, prices were 89.6 percent of the 5- 

year base average. Since producer prices 

did not decline by at least 20 percent 

during the most recent marketing year, 

the petition did not meet the price 

decline requirement, a condition 

required for certifying a petition for 

TAA.
