A series of new trade deals between the United States and countries around the world will directly benefit America’s farmers and ranchers. American Farm Bureau economists analyzed the importance of trade for rural America in the latest Market Intel.
“Trade is essential to the success of America’s farmers and ranchers,” said AFBF President Zippy Duvall. “Strong and enduring agreements help connect U.S. farmers to global markets and Farm Bureau has long been a strong advocate for leveling the playing field for American-grown products.
“We appreciate that the administration is making agriculture a priority in ongoing trade discussions. Opening new markets and working to strengthen existing partnerships will help ensure U.S. farmers can continue leading the world in producing safe, sustainable and affordable food for America’s families and families around the world.”
