Brazil for home milk
BRAZIL is getting too smart for the European Community. It has imposed import duties on EC milk products saying the enormous European subsidy to farmers makes its home products uncompetitive. The EC has petitioned the subsidies committee of the international General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) to resolve the issue. Brazil has promised to supply evidence to the committee proving the EC is subsidising the milk produce and the impact of this on domestic producers.
