Iowa farmer says USDA needs to keep holding Mexico accountable

Southwest Iowa farmer Ray Gaesser is encouraging other producers to voice their concerns about Mexico’s ban on biotech corn imports.

“We all need to encourage our folks at USDA to not give in at all and make Mexico stand up to their agreements they had with us.”

He tells Brownfield Mexico’s rationale for the ban isn’t based in science.

“Mexico says it’s only going to be for white corn right now, but that’s just the first step,” Gaesser said.
