Lower Tariff for Bananas
Costa Rica looks forward to the
European Union gradually
reducing the current tariff of
176 euros per ton of bananas,
acting upon an analysis made by
Norway.
The banana growing countries of
Latin America have withstood the
impact of the tariff since
January 1st this year, when the
25 state members of the EU
established the sole tariff for
bananas.
The Norwegian recommendation is
based on the negative influence
that the tariff has had on the
trade and sales of the fruit,
according to Costa Rican
sources.
