Industry Impact

Which industries are materially affected by specific provisions in this bill. 1 harmed.

  • Agribusinessconfidence 0.90

    Section 2(a) requires the U.S. Executive Director at international financial institutions to oppose any financial assistance for projects supporting shrimp farming, shrimp processing, or shrimp export in borrowing countries. This directly harms agribusiness entities involved in shrimp aquaculture and processing, such as large food processing conglomerates (e.g., Tyson Foods, which has seafood operations) and other agribusiness firms engaged in shrimp production or export.
