Manitoba pork sale to California faces quota setback
The sale of 400000 pounds of frozen Manitoba pork to California processors may be jeopardized by new American pork export quotas. So far 160000 pounds have been shipped to San Francisco Sacramento and Oakland in four loads. Manitoba Hog Producers' Marketing Board manager Bill Munro says Canada has been a net importer of U S pork this year and hopes the quota will be eased or removed. The program aims to develop markets in Japan and Montreal while supporting domestic prices during surplus. The board can time shipments to align with strong U S market demand and favors Manitoba leaner hogs for distant markets.
