U.S. Department of Agriculture Deputy Secretary Steve Censky tells the Red River Farm Network the final details are being worked on for the first stage of the U.S. and Japan trade agreement. This will happen within the next two weeks. “It’s very common with trade negotiations where you reach an agreement on the terms and the final language needs to be scrubbed by legal counsels on both sides and then, we move forward.” The trade agreement will be done in stages so it doesn’t have to be vetted through Congress. This allows agreements to move quickly. Censky says implementation on this sector could take place in early 2020. Listen to the interview.
