(NAFB.com) – As a part of its commitment to expanding and diversifying global market opportunities for U.S. agriculture, the U.S. Department of Agriculture will host six international Agribusiness Trade Missions in 2026. “Boosting exports is critical to the success of the agricultural economy, and the American economy as a whole,” said Luke Lindberg, USDA Undersecretary for Trade and Foreign Agricultural Affairs. “Each year, USDA’s team of marketing and trade experts pinpoint new and growing global markets that offer top-notch prospects for U.S. exporters.” He also said the agency is focusing its efforts on markets where USDA’s trade-expansion efforts have put America’s farmers and ranchers on a more level playing field across the globe. The missions include Indonesia in February, the Philippines in April, Turkey in May, Australia and New Zealand in August, Saudi Arabia in September, and Vietnam in November.
