We also work to create a fair and predictable trade system for U.S. agricultural products by promoting science-based international and regional trade standards and eliminating unfair or unjustified trade barriers that would limit U.S. access to foreign markets. In addition, we help U.S. exporters meet the plant health requirements of importing countries.
