More farm bill conference report: Managers' statement on export permissions

From the managers statement on making export access a priority. Not quite as vigorous as the House bill, but at least putting in some accountability:

(31) Regulation of exports of plants, plant products, biological control organisms, and
noxious weeds
The House bill amends the Agricultural Risk Protection Act of 2000 to require the Secretary to coordinate fruit and vegetable market analyses with the private sector and Foreign Agricultural Service. Further requires the Secretary to list on an Internet website the status of export petitions, an explanation of associated sanitary or phytosanitary issues, and information on the import requirements of foreign countries for fruits and vegetables. (Section 11307)
The Senate amendment contains no comparable provision.
The Conference substitute adopts the House provision with an amendment to strike the original language and insert a provision in the Technical Assistance for Specialty Crops program requiring the Secretary to submit an annual report on sanitary and phytosanitary trade barriers. (Section 3203)
