Thank you again to the amazing Alexis Taylor and team at the USDA including Andrew Stephens for making this happen!
The projects will target such cross-cutting issues as:

• Addressing the implications of new and forthcoming regulations related to plastics and packaging for fresh produce and other specialty crop products;
• Helping U.S. exporters identify potential export markets and better understand the mechanics of exporting;
• Assisting U.S. exporters with navigating foreign standards, certifications, and import requirements, including maximum residue limits (MRLs) for pesticides used on specialty crops; and
• Helping importing countries adopt international standards and harmonize import regulations in order to facilitate trade.

ASCE projects are intended to benefit an entire industry or product category rather than a specific company. They are not intended to directly export products, identify specific foreign buyers, support market promotion activities, or deal with tariffs and related trade policy issues.
