Tyson Foods Urges End To US Ethanol Traiffs
04.30.08
Dick Bond, President and Chief Executive of Tyson Foods said that Congress should reduce or drop a federal tax subsidy and end import tariffs on sugar-based ethanol.
Tyson has been hit by higher feed costs for its poultry, pork and beef processing business, which Bond attributed to competition for corn from ethanol producers as well as rising global demand for protein.
The food and agribusiness sector remains divided over its response to US renewable fuel policy, which includes a $0.51 per gallon subsidy on corn-produced ethanol and a tariff on imports.
