A bill to provide the Secretary of Agriculture with the authority to establish a program to develop, maintain, and expand markets for United States agricultural commodities, and for other purposes.

Summary

Amends the Agriculture and Food Act of 1981 to authorize the Secretary of Agriculture to carry out an export expansion program under which Commodity Credit Corporation stocks are tendered at no cost to U.S. exporters, processors, and foreign purchasers. Directs the Secretary in carrying out such program to ensure that: (1) normal U.S. agricultural exports are not displaced; (2) such stocks are not transshipped; and (3) any such stocks, reimported into the United States in manufactured form, do not place domestic users at a competitive disadvantage.
