The U.S. Department of Agriculture and Secretary Sonny Perdue will travel to Mexico this week in the latest in a series of trade missions to try to expand market access for U.S. exporters, the USDA said Nov. 5. Perdue will also travel with Ted McKinney -- undersecretary for Trade and Foreign Agricultural Affairs -- and about 40 industry representatives to “forge new opportunities” in Mexico, the USDA said. Previous trade missions this year include West Africa (see 1910280030) and Vietnam (see 1910110050).
