The USDA is accepting applications for its Agribusiness Trade Mission to Ghana, scheduled for Sept. 22-25. The mission is designed to connect American agricultural exporters with buyers from Ghana and other West African countries. Applications are due July 1. "Expanding our export footprint here brings America's bounty to new markets and brings new sales back to rural America," said Luke J. Lindberg, USDA Undersecretary for Trade and Foreign Agricultural Affairs. USDA says Ghana represents a growing market for U.S. farm products, with agricultural exports reaching $175 million in 2025. Poultry and prepared foods currently account for much of that trade, but officials see opportunities for growth in beef, dairy products, grains, soybeans, animal feed, seafood, and forestry products. During the mission, U.S. companies will participate in one-on-one meetings with qualified buyers from across West Africa. USDA says the effort is aimed at creating new export opportunities that support farm income, rural jobs, and long-term growth.
