FRESNO, CA - The California Fresh Fruit Association (CFFA) congratulates Dr. Julie Callahan on her confirmation as the United States Chief Agricultural Negotiator in the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative.
“Dr. Callahan has long been a champion for America’s farmers and ranchers,” says Caroline Stringer, CFFA Director of Trade. “A strong advocate for ag is crucial as the U.S. endeavors to open new markets and expand market access around the world. Dr. Callahan’s record addressing unfair trading practices and promoting science-based trade regulations is a testament to her dedication to improving opportunities for CFFA’s members. We look forward to working with Dr. Callahan and her team in the coming months and years.”
California’s fresh fruit industry is heavily dependent on international markets, with exports playing a vital role in long-term sustainability.
The Association looks forward to engaging with Dr. Callahan and the U.S. Trade Representative’s office to support trade policies that strengthen agricultural exports for the fresh fruit industry.
