Belgium Keeps Apple Duty With U S Trade Pact
A new trade agreement between Belgium and the United States preserves the current 82 cent per barrel duty on fresh apples shipped from the United States and ensures unrestricted entry. The pact, the third under the Trade Agreement Acts of 1934, binds favorable duties for apples and prevents future increases barring major exchange-rate shifts. Virginia producers may export to Belgium at the existing rate for the term of the agreement.
