Kerr expects Cubans to
buy Vermont apples, milk
WCAX,
VT, November 9, 2004.
MONTPELIER, Vt. Vermont's agriculture secretary
has returned from a successful trade mission
to Cuba.
Steve Kerr says he hopes to work out a
contract this week to sell Cuba two-thousand
bushels of Macintosh apples valued at 40-thousand
dollars. He also says he has made progress
in a deal to sell up to six million dollars
of powdered milk to Cuba.
Last week, Cuba signed a contract to buy
100 registered cows from Vermont.
Before the cows, apples or milk are shipped,
Cuba will send officials to Vermont on an
inspection tour.
Kerr expects the visit to take place next
month.
