Philippines Lowers Pork Tariffs and Ag Fairs Rescue Act
Friday Apr 16th, 2021 From the Ag Information Network, I’m Bob Larson with your Agribusiness Update. With pork production in the Philippines heavily impacted by African swine fever, the President there is temporarily lowering tariff rates for imported pork muscle cuts.
The Philippines standard tariff rates are among the highest in the world, typically 30% to 40%.
U.S. Meat Export Federation Economist Erin Borror says the order lowers the in-quota tariff rate to 5% for a period of three months, and then 10% for the following nine months.
After 12 months, the rates will return to previous levels.

Agricultural Fairs Rescue Act Pt 1
Tuesday Apr 20th, 2021 I’m Bob Larson. As summer approaches, so does fair season, and a new bill will help preserve agricultural fairs across the country and offset the financial losses brought by the pandemic.
Co-Sponsor, U.S. Representative Dan Newhouse says the Agricultural Fairs Rescue Act will help keep alive a big part of so many lives around the country …
NEWHOUSE … “I’ve been involved with fairs pretty much my whole life, as an exhibitor when I was a kid in 4-H, and then in high school in FFA, and then later on I was able to serve on the Fair Board, of the Central Washington State Fair. I think for a lot of us in rural America fairs are a big part of what we look forward to every summer.”
