USDA has delayed a decision on a new catfish inspection program that threatens to derail U.S. trade relations with Vietnam.
The new inspection law is the result of a long struggle of the US catfish farming states and passed by Congress in 2008. USDA however recently issued a statement that it need more time (six months) and more public comments before a final decision can be made.
