The chief ag negotiator in the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative says shipping channels are slowly reopening at the Port of Baltimore following the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in March.
Doug McKalip says “by the end of April, they’ll have a 35 foot channel open to one-way traffic. By the end of May, a 50 foot deep channel that will accommodate two-way vessel traffic.”
He says that will help alleviate any challenges moving ag inputs, like fertilizer.
