Imagine a world where every urban space is a thriving green hub. Families grow food, communities build wealth, and climate change is tackled one farm at a time. That’s the vision we’re bringing to life in our training! #Agribusiness# #SustainableGrowth# #FoodSecurity#

Food security IS national security. 🇺🇸 China is buying our farmland. Russia supplies a huge share of our fertilizer. Brazil is taking our soybean, corn and cotton markets and has become a major player in our beef supply chain. @POTUS is putting American farmers and ranchers back at the center of policymaking in Washington. We’ve started to turn the tide - but there is much more work ahead of us.

Food security is national security. Tonight at the Milwaukee Art Museum, Ambassador Greer and @SecRollins hosted a welcome dinner to share a bounty of American-grown food with the G20 Trade Ministers.   President Trump has taken bold trade actions to support American farmers and ranchers and boost their global competitiveness. Our agricultural trade deficit is trending in the right direction and the trade deals secured by @POTUS are unlocking foreign market access for U.S. agricultural exports.   The Trump Administration will continue to work with our trading partners to build a new international economic system based on fairness and balance that serves our shared interests.
