TRADE NEGOTIATIONS AND THE FUTURE OF AMERICAN AGRICULTURE



If our sole object in these talks is just to boost U.S. exports and not
trade, which is a two-way street, we have set ourselves the wrong
goal and I suspect both exercises are doomed to fail.

If, however, our goal is to create a trade environment wherein this
country and all other countries can compete fairly, then I think we
are aiming at the right goal and we have a real chance to succeed.

That is the outcome that U.S. agriculture, and world agriculture,
needs.
