The U.S. Department of Agriculture is seeking applicants for its trade mission to the Philippines, part of an effort to expand market access for U.S. agricultural exports, the USDA said Jan. 23. The mission to Manila, which will take place April 20-23, will include meetings with local importers and “in-depth briefings and site visits” to provide “additional on-the-ground insights” about exporting to the Philippines. Applicants should apply to the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service by Feb. 6. The trade mission is one of seven planned for 2020 (see 1912060027).
