「美国产品」标签再添8家肉企:累计逾30家承诺采用,覆盖全美50州

美国农业部长 Brooke L. Rollins 10月30日宣布,再有8家肉类与禽类公司采用农业部自愿性的「美国产品」(Product of USA)标签。自农业部今年早些时候发起全国推广以来,承诺采用该标签的公司已超过30家,标签现覆盖全美50个州。
「美国产品」标签意味着产品真正是在美国出生、饲养、收获与加工。Rollins 表示:「从牧场到餐桌,美国家庭理应知道他们的食物是彻头彻尾的美国产品。今天起,又有8家公司把『美国产品』标签加到他们的产品上。每一家采用这一标签的公司,都是在与我们的牧场主、加工商和农村社区站在一起。」
最新采用的8家公司为:宾夕法尼亚州的 Mesorah Farms、纽约州的 KJ Poultry、南卡罗来纳州的 Strauss Brands、印第安纳州的 Legacy Maker Farms、南达科他州的 Demkota Ranch Beef、密西西比州的 Delta Pride Catfish、加利福尼亚州的 Eel River Organic Beef 与伊利诺伊州的 Krogman Home Grown Meats。农业部表示,该标签的持续扩展与特朗普政府强化美国畜牧业、支持独立牧场主的整体战略相配合。
Eight More Meat Companies Adopt USDA's "Product of USA" Label, Bringing Total Past 30 Nationwide
U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins announced on October 30 that 8 additional meat and poultry companies have adopted USDA's voluntary "Product of USA" label. More than 30 companies have now committed to the label since USDA launched its nationwide campaign earlier this year, and the label is now available in all 50 states.
The label certifies that products are truly born, raised, harvested, and processed in the United States. "From the pasture to the dinner table, American families deserve to know that their food is American through and through. And as of today, 8 more companies are adding the Product of USA label to their product," said Secretary Rollins. "Every company that adopts the Product of USA label is standing with our ranchers, our processors, and our rural communities."
The newest adopters are Mesorah Farms of Pennsylvania, KJ Poultry of New York, Strauss Brands of South Carolina, Legacy Maker Farms of Indiana, Demkota Ranch Beef of South Dakota, Delta Pride Catfish of Mississippi, Eel River Organic Beef of California, and Krogman Home Grown Meats of Illinois. USDA said the label's continued expansion complements the administration's broader strategy to strengthen America's livestock industry by supporting independent ranchers.
