Maine’s congressional delegation is getting involved in a push to extend federal aid to members of the state’s wild blueberry industry. Wild blueberries are an important crop in Maine, but the industry has struggled with low prices in recent years. Maine’s delegation said the U.S. Department of Agriculture should include the industry in its Market Facilitation Program, which is designed to provide money to agricultural producers affected by trade disruptions. The lawmakers’ push follows up on a similar request by Amanda Beal, head of the Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry.
