The Nebraska Farm Bureau has identified its top trade priorities for 2022.  President Mark McHargue says the Biden administration has taken very little action on trade over the last year.  He says ag exports are critical for the success of Nebraska agriculture.

Director of National Affairs Jordan Dux says trade policy priorities include normalizing trade with China and forcing them to play by international trade rules.

He says they also want the administration to work to rejoin the CPTPP and work on new bi-lateral and multi-lateral trade agreements.

Dux says they’re also reaffirming the importance of reforming the World Trade Organization.
