American Farm Bureau Federation President Zippy Duvall commented today on Mexico’s decision to formally repeal a ban on biotech corn imports from the United States.
“Farm Bureau applauds Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum for repealing her country’s ban on biotech corn imports from America. Her predecessor’s attempt to limit trade between the two countries was a clear violation of the USMCA trade agreement, which was recently confirmed by a USMCA panel decision.
“A ban would have hurt hard-working families on both sides of the border. America’s famers are dedicated to growing safe and affordable food, and they look forward to continued access to an important trading partner.”
