# Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers
**AGENCY:**
Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA.
**ACTION:**
Notice.
On March 22, 2007, the Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), denied a petition for trade adjustment assistance (TAA) for avocados that was filed on February 17, 2007, by the California Avocado Commission.
**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**
Upon investigation, the Administrator determined that imports from Mexico for the November 1, 2005, through October 31, 2006, marketing year declined by 2 percent from the same period in 2005/2006. Since imports declined during the marketing year, the petition did not meet the increasing imports requirement, a condition required for certifying a petition for TAA.
