USDEC, NMPF join Problem Solvers Caucus roundtable on supply chain snarls
The discussion addressed additional steps Congress could take to address the ongoing export supply chain crisis facing American exports, including dairy.
The U.S. Dairy Export Council (USDEC) and The National Milk Producers Federation (NMPF) said they joined the U.S. House of Representatives’ bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus in a roundtable on March 17 to discuss additional steps Congress could take to address the ongoing export supply chain crisis facing American exports, including dairy.
Jaime Castaneda, executive vice president for policy development and strategy for USDEC and NMPF, spoke during a panel discussion moderated by Reps. Jim Costa (D-Calif.) and Dusty Johnson (R-S.D.) to identify the challenges exporters are facing in securing container and vessel space, unprecedented congestion and record fees to ship products to international customers, the Arlington, Va.-based organizations said.
