# U.S. Wheat Associates Submits Comments on International Trade Barriers to USTR - U.S. Wheat Associates

> U.S. Wheat Associates submitted comments to USTR for the annual National Trade Estimates report, highlighting trade barriers in India and China. Concerns include India's price support system and export subsidies, and China's domestic support and TRQ violations. The group estimates removing India's subsidies would add $516 million a year to U.S. wheat production value by 2028/29.
