[Bad news for shrimp lovers<g>] --"Watch the price of shrimp New tariffs may send cost higher" By CHARLES HOMANS Knight Ridder Newspapers WASHINGTON — Shrimpers from Brazil, India, Thailand and Ecuador must pay tariffs if they want to keep selling in the United States, the Commerce Department ruled Monday. The duties for Ecuador, India and Thailand were similar to the preliminary duties the department announced in July, while Brazil's were about 26 percent less than expected. Nevertheless, some importers suggested that the Commerce Department's decision could increase the price Americans pay for shrimp at the grocery store. The Southern Shrimp Alliance, which represents shrimpers in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Texas, had petitioned the Commerce Department last December for an anti-dumping inquiry of foreign shrimp exporters. The inquiry was aimed at six countries: China, Vietnam, Brazil, Ecuador, India and Thailand. Dumping — selling a product below the cost of production — is illegal in the United States. kansascity.com
