Manufacturers in three countries can import and export goods under the U.S. Mexico Canada Agreement. It took effect last Wednesday, replacing the North American Free Trade Agreement. Illinois Farm Bureau Executive Director Mark Gebhards says agricultural products will get a boost.

Gebhards says farmers should feel good about keeping up the push for a new trade agreement. The USMCA has a 16-year term.
