Guatemala accord helps US poultry farmers

Guatemala, the sixth-largest export market for U.S. poultry, has reached an agreement that will benefit U.S. poultry producers.

Under the agreement, Guatemala will unilaterally accelerate the elimination of tariffs on U.S. exports of fresh, frozen and chilled chicken leg quarters. Without this agreement, U.S. poultry exports would have faced a tariff of 12.5 percent this year.
