§5606 Implementation of Commitments Under Uruguay Round Agreements

Summary

By September 30 each year, the Secretary must check whether other countries are carrying out their commitments under the Uruguay Round Agreement on Agriculture. The check looks at whether a country's actions could significantly limit chances for U.S. agricultural exports. If the Secretary believes a country is not following its commitments and that this may harm U.S. export opportunities, the Secretary must send the evaluation to the United States Trade Representative and send a copy to the House Committees on Agriculture and on Ways and Means, and to the Senate Committees on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry and on Finance.
