ALL ABOUT AGRICULTURE AGAIN:

Free trade negotiations continue (ABC, 11/24/03)

Trade Minister Mark Vaile is in Washington this week to push along free trade negotiations between Australia and the United States.

Mr Vaile will meet his US counterpart Bob Zoellick to identify any sticking points that must be resolved, if the two countries are to complete talks by the end of the year.

The final round of negotiations start next week.

Mr Vaile has confirmed access for Australian agricultural products to the US market is still being debated.

A free trade agreement between the US and Australia would be good for both countries and put another nail in the "Bush is protectionist" arguement.
