North Dakota Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring participated in USDA’s recent trade mission to Japan and hopes to see improvements to tariffs in the future. “We’re surprised that there are some countries that are competitors of ours that aren’t subject to the same tariffs.” While the U.S. Japan trade relationship is mature, Goehring sees value in these trade missions. “It’s a market we need to continue to stay engaged with so we can address challenges when the pop up.” Japan imports much of it’s energy and Goehring hopes to look into more options for trade in that sector in the future.
