摘要

Houston, Tex.- Seriously concerned about the disruption of agricultural exports to Cuba because of new restrictions recently announced by the Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). Dennis DeLaughter, a rice farmer from Edna, Texas presented testimony jointly approved by the USRPA and the USA Rice Federation, in which the industry called upon the U.S. Congress to prevent the loss of a new 100 million dollar rice market. The testimony noted that Congress passed the Trade Sanctions Reform and Export Enhancement Act of 2000 to achieve its goal of enhancing U.S. agricultural export opportunities by explicitly exempting sales of food and medicine from any economic embargo. As a result, since December 2001, Cuba has purchased approximately 1.25 billion dollar worth of U.S. agricultural goods. In 2004 Cuba imported 64 million dollar worth of U.S. rice-making its the fastest growing U.S. rice market, arid one of the top five long grain rice destinations for the year.
