Cuba currently imports few fruits and vegetables from the U.S., but the American Farm Bureau says the change in relations may allow for new trade opportunities. Photo: Ramon Espinosa/AP\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>And for U.S. agricultural producers, the most important part of Wednesday's announcement was Obama's call to lift restrictions on financial transactions for food products, says David Salmonsen, a trade specialist with the \u003ca href=\"http://www.fb.org/\">American Farm Bureau\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Currently, any agricultural producer who wants to sell to Cuba has to get cash upfront from the Cuban government before shipping, and the money exchange must be handled through a third-party bank, which means all kinds of extra transaction costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the Treasury Department and Commerce Department go along with Obama's order, then those producers will now be able to do business more directly with the Cuban government and its banks, says Salmonsen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Without those extra transaction costs, certain U.S. producers that don't currently sell to Cuba — like fruit and vegetables producers — may finally be able to offer the Cuban government a competitive price. Or rice from the Southeast U.S.: Cuba used to buy it, until we were out-competed by Brazil and Vietnam.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.cargill.com/news/releases/2014/NA31716068.jsp\">Cargill\u003c/a>, for one, says it's optimistic about the opportunities. So is the\u003ca href=\"http://soygrowers.com/progress-relations-cuba-creates-multiple-opportunities-american-soy/\"> American Soybean Association\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Depending on how it develops, it could put our producers back into a more normal trading relationship with Cuba, so that the whole supply chain evolves, and demand rises as barriers are reduced and eliminated,\" says Salmonsen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as Kavulich points out, food isn't necessarily Cuba's biggest priority: Investments in infrastructure may be more desperately needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, \"there are opportunities\" for food companies, he says, but what happens when the \"Cubans say, 'That's all well and good, but we need help with financing?' The risk of doing business with the Cuban government is huge.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cuba's government has considerable trade deficits with other nations, but little with the U.S. If American businesses want to sell more to Cuba, they might find themselves waiting a while to get paid, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The big trade picture aside, the outlook for Cuban cuisine is also a bit murky. As I \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/blogs/thesalt/2012/01/27/145836157/cuban-chefs-modernize-their-cuisine-despite-u-s-embargo\">reported\u003c/a> in 2012, Cuban chefs haven't been able to incorporate many modern cooking techniques, or exotic ingredients. (I don't think sous vides machines can get past the embargo.) So chefs may have to wait a while before they can import some of the American ingredients they covet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Sanchez wrote, Wednesday's announcement \"is just the beginning.\" It's tempting to get excited about the future of Cuban food, but \"keep the corks in the bottles,\" she says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2014 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\" target=\"_blank\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/91191/what-the-change-in-u-s-cuba-relations-might-mean-for-food","authors":["byline_bayareabites_91191"],"categories":["bayareabites_1962","bayareabites_10028","bayareabites_10916","bayareabites_2035"],"tags":["bayareabites_11236","bayareabites_11855","bayareabites_10921"],"featImg":"bayareabites_91193","label":"bayareabites"},"bayareabites_63648":{"type":"posts","id":"bayareabites_63648","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"bayareabites","id":"63648","score":null,"sort":[1371594767000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"obama-would-veto-houses-farm-bill-white-house-says","title":"Obama Would Veto House's Farm Bill, White House Says","publishDate":1371594767,"format":"aside","headTitle":"Bay Area Bites | KQED Food","labelTerm":{"site":"bayareabites"},"content":"\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/BILLS-113hr1947ih/pdf/BILLS-113hr1947ih.pdf\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/06/farmbill.jpg\" alt=\"farm bill\" width=\"500\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-63650\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Post by \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/people/14562108/bill-chappell\">Bill Chappell\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2013/06/17/192834899/obama-would-veto-houses-farm-bill-white-house-says\">The Two-Way\u003c/a>, at NPR (6/17/13)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Obama will be advised to veto a multi-year farm bill slated to be discussed in the House this week, the White House says.
