USTR Releases Findings from USMCA Biotech Corn Dispute Between United States and Mexico

In late December, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) released the panel findings from the ongoing dispute regarding products of agricultural biotechnology between the United States and Mexico under the United States-Mexico-Canada agreement (USMCA).

The United States initiated this dispute in February 2023, in response to Mexico’s most recent presidential decree that: 1) immediately prohibited the use of biotech corn in Mexico’s dough and tortilla production, and 2) proposed a longer-term phase out of the use of biotech corn in all food and animal feed products.
