Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue celebrated the reintroduction of American pork products to the Argentine market today after a more than 20-year absence by slicing a ten-pound honey baked ham. “The U.S. is the world’s third largest pork producer and a top exporter,”Perdue said. “This new market is a big victory for American farmers and ranchers. I am confident that once the people of Argentina get a taste of American pork products, they will only want more. This is a great day for our agriculture community and an example of how the Trump Administration is committed to supporting our producers by opening new markets for their products.”
