Market access is key to the success of U.S. specialty crops. Thank you @IntFreshProduce for joining us at @HouseAgGOP this week to talk about the importance of programs like MAP and FMD, which have proven to be successful in establishing new markets for American producers.
How can we create more demand for U.S. specialty crops? It takes work at home and abroad.
IFPA’s Alexis Taylor told @RepNewhouse and @HouseAgGOP that we need to get more fruits and vegetables on Americans’ plates while breaking down trade barriers and building overseas markets.
