North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)

The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) is a comprehensive trade liberalizing agreement among Canada, Mexico, and the United States. ERS economists provide data and analysis concerning the impact of NAFTA on U.S. agriculture and related issues, including the potential impact of proposed trade agreements, such as the Free Trade Agreement of the Americas (FTAA).
