Exports impact US pork industry
According to Jon Caspers, vice chair from the US Meat
Export Federation (USMEF), the pork industry profits from
exports.
Caspers says the US has enjoyed
15
years of record pork exports. He believes that the US is very competitive
and maintains a good system which continually adapts to meet the requirements of
foreign markets.
"In 1995, we actually became a network exporter for the first time,
which is quite a milestone and that's just continued to build and we just
continue to sell more and more pork."
Caspers continues to say that the pork industry has seen 33 months of
continuous profitability.
"A big part of that has been the growth in exports to really move that
product into markets because we're raising record numbers of pigs."
