Exports are a critical driver of economic progress across the United States and have direct benefits for U.S. agriculture. About 20 percent of all U.S. agricultural production is exported around the world, providing a significant share of producers’ cash receipts. Ensuring that exports move and reach foreign markets, requires trade policy advances in the global export arena.
