Georgia agribusiness mission to Panama

Commissioner of Agriculture Gary W. Black led a delegation of diverse agricultural interests to Panama recently with a goal of exploring the importance of the Panama Canal expansion and connectivity to Georgia ports and intermodal connectivity to Atlanta and particularly the Atlanta State Farmers Market.

The trade development mission was also aimed at identifying future opportunities for the Atlanta Market in serving as the terminal produce market for the Southeast and exporting fresh Georgia Grown products throughout the globe.
