U.S. Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry Ranking Member John Boozman has expressed approval of a recent decision against Mexico's ban on American corn. The ruling addresses concerns regarding Mexico's compliance with trade agreements between the two countries.

In his statement, Boozman emphasized the importance of adhering to negotiated trade terms. "This ruling holds Mexico accountable for violating our negotiated trade agreement," he stated. He criticized the basis of Mexico's attempt to ban U.S. biotech corn, asserting that it was not grounded in "sound science."

Boozman reiterated his commitment to advocating for policies that support fair competition for American farmers. "I applaud the decision and will continue to promote policies and actions to ensure America's farmers have a level play field to compete," he concluded.

The decision is seen as a significant development in ongoing discussions about agricultural trade practices between the United States and Mexico.
