USDA announced this week Agricultural Secretary Tom Vilsack will lead a trade mission in March to Chile and Peru in order to expand export opportunities for US agricultural products.
“Thanks to existing free trade agreements, the United States enjoys strong trading relationships with both Chile and Peru,” Vilsack says. “In addition, both nations are part of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which if implemented will boost the Chilean and Peruvian economies and tighten integration with the US economy, helping further expand demand for US agricultural products.”
