There is no denying the importance of global trade and world markets when it comes to the protein sector. That being so, what does the lack of U.S. participation in trade agreements mean for the America’s pork industry. What about regulations like Prop 12 in California that essentially limit the incentive for others to trade with America? We dig in today to talk exports and world trade.
