Department of Commerce and the Government of the Peoples's Republic of China agreed, effective August 2, to restrict the volume of Chinese honey exports to the United States. The agreement replaces punitive u.s. Anti-dumping duties on honey from China with quantitative and price limits on Chinese honey shipments to the United States. Under the 5-year agreement, China will be allowed to export about tons of honey yearly to the United States. Chinese honey must be sold at or above a reference price equivalent to 92 percent of the average quarterly per unit value of imports from all other countries. U.s. Imports of Chinese honey increased steadily from tons in 1989 to a record tons in 1993. Imports in 1994 totaled tons. In response to a petition from the Armorican Beekeeping Federation, the us. Department of Commerce instituted an anti-dumping investigation on imports of honey from China on March 20, 1995. Us. Orange juice exports are running at a record pace. Record u.s. Orange juice production will offset lower Brazilian output in keeping worldwide supplies in selected countries in close to the previous year's record level of million tons. Orange juice exports from selected countries in are forecast at million tons, 8 percent below the previous year's shipments. Brazil, the world's largest exporter, is expected to account for most of the decrease, primarily due to reduced import demand from the United States. Us. Orange juice exports in are forecast at a record tons (65 degrees brix concentration), 13 percent above last season's shipments. U.s. Orange juice exports, particularly to the European Union, have benefited from increased demand for higher quality, not from concentrate juice, the devaluation of the dollar against some EU currencies, and strong marketing efforts from us. Companies. The first meeting of officials from the US Canada, Mexico, and Chile to initiate discussions regarding Chile's accession to the nafta took place in Mexico City July 25 July 31. Market access and agriculture were discussed the last day. The discussions were generally limited to a review of the nafta provisions, although some negotiating positions were staked out. Canada noted immediately that it wanted an exception from tariff reductions for its supply managed sectors; that is, dairy and poultry. No date has been set for the next session.
