Canadian Pork Industry Applauds Canada-Honduras Free Trade Agreement

By Amanda Brodhagen, Farms.com

Canada’s pork industry welcomes the signing of the Canada-Honduras free trade agreement, which makes way for Canadian pork exports.

Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz announced that the trade agreement includes market access for Canadian hog farmers. Canada Pork International, the market development agency for the Canadian pork industry, estimates the market access to be worth between $5 and $7 million.

Canada is the world’s third largest pork producer, and relies heavily on export market access. More than 60 per cent of its production is exported outside the country. In 2012, Canada exported 1.19 million tonnes of pork to more than 100 countries, which was worth $2.8 billion.
