In 2019, 20 countries with which the U.S. has FTAs accounted for 41% of total U.S. agricultural exports and 61% of coarse grain exports. The U.S. Grains Council submitted evidence to the U.S. International Trade Commission, stressing the importance of new market access for maintaining U.S. farm sector competitiveness.
