Brexit could have negative consequences for U.S. ag
Veronica Nigh spoke at the Iowa Farm Bureau Economic Summit in West Des Moines. She was part of a panel discussion on international trade.
An economist with American Farm Bureau says Britain’s exit from the European Union could have negative consequences for U.S. agriculture.
Veronica Nigh says the T-TIP trade agreement could be one of the casualties of the Brexit vote.
“It was a tough negotiation to begin with—and this certainly complicates it even further,” Nigh says.
And Nigh thinks Brexit’s impact will be even broader than just the T-TIP agreement. She points out that the Britain tended to be a more moderate voice on science and technology than the rest of the EU.
“Without their presence in the EU, that allows those voices who are less science-based to have an even larger voice,” she says.
Nigh spoke with Brownfield at the Iowa Farm Bureau Economic Summit in West Des Moines, Iowa.
