Secretary Rollins Announces Aggressive International Travel Agenda to Expand Market Access for American Agricultural Exports

U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins will visit six international markets in her first six months as Secretary to expand markets and boost American agricultural exports.
