Canada Plans Price Support and Export Permits for Potatoes
County AAA chairman says Canada will implement a price support program and export permits for the 1948 potato crop under a US Canada agreement. There will be no quotas on Canadian potatoes to the United States and certified seed potatoes will go to U.S. seed outlets only. The United States will stop charging quotas or fees on Canadian potatoes, as the two nations cooperate to address mutual concerns about imports and related effects on the U.S. port system.
