Mary Lovely was interviewed on NPR's All Things Considered for the segment "Tariffs Are Having A Chilling Effect On More U.S. Businesses." Lovely says that after two rounds of retaliatory tariffs by China, U.S. ham and various other pork products now face massive tariffs — between 62 and 70 percent. "In recent weeks, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has reported zero weekly export sales of pork to China," she says. "So our exports to the country have pretty much collapsed." 07/25/18
