EXPORTS, FREE TRADE HOLD KEY TO HEALTHY FARM ECONOMY

U.S. SENATOR KAY BAILEY HUTCHISON

A lthoui!h still reeijng from this. summer's drought. rna. ny Texas farm ers and rancherf have been asking me what the future holds for American agriculture .

I don't claim to have a crystal ball. But I do have deli nile ideas about what direction we should take lO fashion a fair. effective agricultural policy that benefits both American farmers and the peoples of the world who must have food.

One fact stands out above all the others. The future of farm profitability lies with expanding overseas markets. We have to do a lot more t<i get American fanners access to the overseas markets that offer a burgeoning demand for what we produce more efficiently and abundantly than any other nation in the world.

In recent years, nearly 40 percent of the food grown in the United States has been for export. Now. however. economic troubles have sharply cunailed Asia· s imports of agricultural commodities. This. combined with a growing world-wide supply of basic commodities and continued unfair trade practices in other countries. lies at the heart of the current dip in farm prices.

I am working to find ways to jump start U.S.trade policy. utilizing all of the export tools available und~r current law. The Senate recentlypassed legislation removing the sanctions on agriculture products impos.:d on 'ndia and Pakistan. and has restored U.S. Department of Agricultur.: .(USDA) export credit guar<mtees to those two countrirs

A Senate Sanctions Rdorm Task Force has been formed and .com pre­. hcnsive sanctions reform legislation is being drafted. I am working un tills

legislation. Farmers and ranl·hcrs shoulJ not bear the brunt of our fatlcd diplomatic efforts around lhc world.

Meanwhile . in July. the Senate Agriculture Commiuee urged the Secre­tary of Agriculture to utilize unspent Export Enhancement Program funds to create a food assistance and market development program. Under this program. the USDA would purchase U.S. agricultural commodities at pre­vailing market prices f{)r sales to foreign buyers. The committee's plan makes it clear that the program would give priority to countries that are experiencing a temporary need for food aid, but would be likely to resume commercial purchases in the future.

Another plank in this pro-f ann platfonn must be to insist that agriculture receive priority consideration in the next. round of World Trade Organization J;tegotiations. Agricuhur.s the most subsidized, protected industry in many foreign countries. To maintain and increase U.S. farm income, we have to improve our market share, and this depends. in tum, on successfully disman· tling our trading partners' tariff and non-tariff barriers to farm imports.

Finally. · Congress crafted the new agricultural research law to assist fanners into the 21st Century. This legislation marked the first major overhaul of agricultural research programs in more than 20 years. It modem­iz;es agricultural research. focusing on ways to help American fanners maintain their competitive edge and meet the challenges of the . global matk~Jtplace. This measure provides $600million in new funding for agri!!UI-tural research. ·

There was a fellow who called his boss "The Wrestler, • because he was always throwing his weight around.

One day, when he finished his first aid course he was aSked, "What's the first thing you'd do if you distovered you had rabies?•

"I'd bite my boss,'! he answered. But the Bible says, "Never avenge yourselves.

Leave that to God. He will repay those who deserve it. Don't let evil get the upper hand, but conquer evil by doing good.''

You can never get ahead of anyone as long as yqu're tryipgto get even With him. Forgiving him puJs you ahead of him. .

The only people you should try to get even with · are those who have ·helped you. ·

So don't lay for your enemies and .don't lie for . your riends; · ·
