So I want to introduce you and ask you to lead off the conversation and allow me listen to straight. I'm done chatting, I wish to speak with individuals unless I have inquiries of course, I always have questions concerning what this really seems like. What is the short term effect, the lengthy term influence and what the stress and anxieties are right now.
I was honored when you called and reached out about this. I understand this has actually been really vital to you, this is really crucial to most of our services. The Amherst Chamber of Business is right here in the community of Amherst, yet our membership spans 79 zip codes from here to Rochester.
This team that you're going to learn through today is from a variety of sectors throughout our region. Not every one of them are chamber participants, yet it was essential to us to ensure that we were all collected here today to discuss this, and what we've been listening to mainly from our services is the unpredictability the turmoil.
Companies plan and there's been a whole lot of problems over the last six years approximately, whether it was taking care of the pandemic and currently taking care of the unpredictability of what the expense of products are going to be, whether they're importing them, exporting them, completed product and putting points together.
Many thanks for inviting me to start with. The greatest issue we have with what's been going on with trade and tariffs, and I assume every business person will tell you, is the mayhem, complication, and unpredictability. I am a fruit farmer, I have to purchase trees, make strategies four years out.
We just don't understand what to do, so as a result, a great deal of us are resting on our hands. We're not making the financial investment we must make. We're constantly informed in the fruit service, if you're not changing 5-10 percent of your orchards each year, you're possibly going to be out of company in the future someplace.
New York is the 2nd largest farmer of apples in the country still and about a 3rd of the apples produced in the United States have actually to be exported. In New York, we send out some apples to the Center East, Israel, Vietnam.
Canada and Mexico are the two biggest export markets for American apples. We're not on good terms with either country and it's truly made it more difficult for the marketing professionals of those apples.
You discussed fertilizer all of the potassium fertilizers come out of Canada. Those prices have gone up around 30 percent in the last year.
They all either come from Europe or Asia due to the fact that the suppliers have larger markets in those nations. Those tractors, and the parts to fix the ones we currently have, have gone up 50 percent in the last year for anything we desire to get out of Europe or Japan.
