“America’s farmer co-ops would like to thank Senators Angus King (I-Me.), Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) and Tina Smith (D-Minn.) for introducing the Expanding American Agricultural Trade and Exports (CREAATE) Act today. The bill would institute a long-needed increase in funding for the Market Access Program (MAP) and Foreign Market Development (FMD) Program, which help America’s farmers, ranchers, growers expand markets overseas for this country’s agricultural bounty. This is especially vital as foreign competitors continue to spend substantially more on market development and promotion of their food and ag exports than the U.S. does.” – NCFC President, Chuck Conner
