The U.S. Department of Commerce plans to withdraw from an agreement with Mexico to suspend anti-dumping investigations.
The department claims that the 2019 agreement has failed to protect U.S. growers from unfairly priced Mexican exports.
The official termination is now expected to take place in early July.
Robert Guenther with the Florida Tomato Exchange and the Florida Tomato Committee spoke with RFD-TV’s Tammi Arender on how the original agreement came to be, how it has impacted tomato producers, and what to expect moving forward.
