"Worldwide economic downswings affect ag trade; Business relationships able to be established during recent ag trade mission
By SUE ROESLER, Farm & Ranch Guide
With the recent worldwide economic downswings and the rise in the dollar, there are challenges with agricultural trade with the U.S. right now, but Larry White, director of international agribusiness for the N.D. Trade Office, assured North Dakota producers those challenges will be worked through in the future.
“We'll work through all this. But one thing about it, wherever I've been in the world, there is not anyone who wouldn't rather be here. They like America, and its products,” White said during a quick presentation to producers in southwestern North Dakota at the Western Dakota Crops Day.
White and Les Paulson, seed dealer with Paulson Premium Seed and Conditioning in Bowman, N.D., talked about their recent trade mission to Turkey and Egypt."
