ARLINGTON, Va., July 1, 2026 — The National Grain and Feed Association (NGFA) today reaffirmed its strong support for a long-term extension of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) following the conclusion of the agreement’s first six-year joint review.

While the United States did not confirm an extension during the review process, USMCA remains fully in force, and all existing trade provisions remain unchanged.

“USMCA provides critical certainty for U.S. agriculture and supports the integrated North American supply chains that help keep our grain, feed, processing, and export sectors competitive,” said NGFA President and CEO Mike Seyfert. “The agreement remains fully in force, and we look forward to working with the administration, policymakers and other stakeholders throughout the review process to support seamless agricultural trade and continued market opportunities across North America.”

Mexico and Canada remain indispensable markets for U.S. agriculture, and NGFA will continue advocating for a strong, long-term USMCA that provides certainty for agricultural trade and investment throughout the region.
