United States Department of Agriculture in Russia

United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) in Russia represents the interests of American agriculture and agribusiness in Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan. Activities of the office include market research and analysis, market development, and market access.

As an office of the U.S. Department of Agriculture abroad it serves as the "eyes and ears" of the United States Secretary of Agriculture and is the Secretary's formal liaison with the Ministers of Agriculture in all four countries. USDA programs in the three countries of responsibility include food aid, export credits, technical assistance, technical exchanges, and scientific cooperation.

FAS is the enquiry point for World Trade Organization (WTO) sanitary and phytosanitary issues and technical barriers to trade. As such, the agency serves as the official conduit for notifications and comments about these measures. Please be in touch with us on your issues and concerns regarding market access in Russia.

Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) coordinates and directs USDA's responsibilities in international trade negotiations, working closely with the U.S. Agricultural Trade Office. Trade policy experts at FAS help identify—and work to reduce—foreign trade barriers and other practices and policies that hinder U.S. agricultural exports.

Agricultural Trade Offices in Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Vladivostok support U.S. Exporters, Associations, and partners in Russia.
