What Our Farmers Are Saying
"Florida blueberry growers continue to experience undue hardship as a result of Mexico's unfair trading practices. My family farm is well on its way to becoming a casualty of this and eventually it will be the reason that my family business and others are forced out of commercial production."
Brittany Lee
Florida Blueberry Growers Association (FL)
"We farm in southwest Michigan, a few miles from Lake Michigan. We specialize in blueberries... This is not just a Southeast U.S. problem, this is a Midwest problem, a U.S. problem."
Fred Leitz
Leitz Farms LLC (MI)
"Our market prices have continued to fall year after year due to the direct impact of increased volume pouring into our market by the imported blueberries."
Michael Hill
H&A Farms (FL)
“We have been telling Washington about Mexico’s unfair trading practices for several years. We raised it when the USMCA negotiations began and we proposed a solution to the issue. The solution we proposed was merely intended to afford us - as U.S. businesses - genuine access to our own U.S. trade laws. That is all we proposed to do: make it possible for us to file a petition for import relief.”
