WASHINGTON, DC – The USDA’s Agricultural Marketing Service is hosting a free Webinar called “An Introduction to the Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act (PACA).”  The webinar will take place Thursday, June 26^th from 2:00-3:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

Karla Whalen, Director of the PACA Division, will be the speaker for this webinar.  Whalen will introduce the PACA and give practical tips on how it can help produce companies resolve business challenges like the interpretation of USDA inspection certificates and protecting their businesses if customers do not pay or file for bankruptcy, according to a press release.

After the presentation, an interactive question and answer session will end the webinar.  This will be the time to address any remaining questions about PACA.

Since space is limited, the USDA asks that interested parties register to participate via the USDA Webex website.
