Ag Groups Sponsoring U.S.-Cuba Business Conference
USAgNet - 09/18/2018

Farmers, ag groups and other organizations that promote U.S. exports are being invited to a conference sponsored by the U.S. Agriculture Coalition for Cuba. The event comes at a time when U.S. agriculture needs to expand into new markets, and Cuba continues to depend on imports for 80 percent of its food supply.

The forum allows participants a chance to meet ministers, leaders of agriculture industry, farmers, cooperatives, and decision makers in Cuba's newly formed government.

"At a time when new markets are needed for our agricultural exports, and Cuba is looking to increase agriculture trade and investment, this conference will help to inform and connect the people who can work to make those things happen," said Paul Johnson, chair of the U.S. Agricultural Coalition for Cuba (USACC).

The USACC seeks to advance trade relations between the U.S. and Cuba by re- establishing Cuba as a market for U.S. food and agriculture exports. The USACC believes that normalizing trade relations between the U.S. and Cuba will provide the U.S. farm and business community with new market access opportunities, drive enhanced growth in both countries and allow U.S. farmers, ranchers and food companies to efficiently address Cuban citizen's food security needs.

The conference allows participants a chance to meet ministers, leaders of agriculture industry, farmers, cooperatives, and decision makers in Cuba's newly formed government.
