Vilsack talks GMO ban with Mexican president

Mexico will be phasing out GMO corn imports by 2024. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack met with Mexico’s President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador Monday to discuss the issue.

Ag Secretary Vilsack told Mexico if the problem isn’t resolved, the U.S. would be forced to consider all options, including enforcing legal rights under the U.S. Mexico-Canada Agreement. National Corn Growers Association’s Jon Doggett tells Brownfield NCGA is supportive of the U.S. government taking legal action.
