SUMMARY:Green Alliances: Cultivating US and Chinese Climate Leadership
DESCRIPTION:The U.S. China Agriculture Roundtable has grown to be the most broad-based bilateral dialogue platform around agriculture\, drawing leaders spanning government\, trade\, business\, education\, and think tanks from both countries. \nThe upcoming 4th annual Roundtable will further strengthen bilateral collaboration and people-to-people friendships around agriculture. We are excited that two leading experts\, Dr. Jennifer Turner and Dr. Karen Mancl of the Wilson Center will be joining us for our 2024 Think Tank Dialogue in Beijing on June 12th. The Wilson Center and the Ohio State University recently published a report to illustrate the complex climate footprint of U.S. and Chinese agriculture and highlight opportunities for bilateral cooperation on policies\, projects\, and strategies to reduce agriculture’s climate footprint. \nAt this talk\, Dr. Turner and Dr. Mancl will discuss possible paths forward for climate and food collaboration between the United States and China. We will also hear from leading professionals in agrifood sciences and agricultural studies.

SUMMARY:Finding Security: U.S.-China Ag. Trade in a Changing World
DESCRIPTION:Despite growing competition between the U.S. and China\, trade volume between the two countries remains significant and robust. U.S. agricultural exports to China\, in particular\, have seen tremendous growth. But the world is changing dramatically and the impact is felt locally in the Heartland\, where a majority of the U.S. agricultural exports to China are produced. \nAs a global food security crisis is looming large over the horizon\, what is the future of U.S.-China Ag trade\, and how can the two countries collaborate to address global food security?  This August\, USHCA will have experts from both the U.S. and China to explore these questions and share insights on the impact of inflation\, domestic production shifts\, and the changes taking place in U.S.-China Ag trade and its impact to Ag producers in the Heartland.
