Abstract: This paper examines agricultural transportation issues relating to a U.S.-Mexico Free Trade Agreement (FT A) and considers the implications for both agriculture and the transportation industry in the U.S. and Texas. Priority agricultural transportation issues to be monitored during negotiations include access of the U.S. trucking industry to Mexico, administrative constraints at border crossings, and the inadequate and outdated Mexican transportation system.
