As of 2006, it was estimated that 65% of the goose liver needed for the delicacy, foie gras, came from China.  The goose has moved from a domestic local market to an international market.  While local fishermen may continue to supply local needs, more and more will be supplying major packers and international traders.</FONT></td>
