Requests for Export of Produce to the US

Dec 10, 2013

A note just caught my eye of China requesting to export fresh apples to the US.  They already are the major exporter of apple juice to the US, and now fresh fruit.  I went online to see what other countries are requesting to send here and was impressed that the Philippines, Ecuador, Argentina, South Africa, Australia and Columbia all want to export 'Hass' avocado here and Swaziland, Chile and Mexico all want to send more citrus here.  The link is to the USDA-APHIS website:
