NGFA leads effort to address a ‘trifecta of transportation trouble’ affecting agriculture --> NGFA sent a letter today to President Biden with nearly 200 other organizations and companies calling for urgent action to avert a looming port labor strike, rail issues in Mexico, and historically low water levels on the Mississippi River. https://lnkd.in/eqZJd8Xs #transportation #agriculture #agribusiness

In a letter to President Biden sent today, NGFA and 55 organizations called on the U.S. government to act immediately to avert potential disruption at port operations along the East and Gulf Coasts. “As the harvest season gets underway, even the slightest delay in moving American products efficiently has a disruptive and harmful effect on our supply chain and economy,” NGFA President and CEO Mike Seyfert said. “Keeping these ports open and operating at full capacity is critical to NGFA members and rural America.” https://lnkd.in/eVQ6RD6e #transportation #ports #exports #agriculture #agribusiness
