Explosive growth in the real value of agricultural trade within the NAFTA region (intra-NAFTA trade) also points to greater market integration in agriculture due to the free trade agreements.

Between 1987-88 and 2000-01, agricultural trade among the United States, Canada and Mexico increased 155 per-cent, surging from $11.2 billion to $28.6 billion in real (1989-91) terms. Data used in this analysis are derived from the Comtrade system of the United Nations. Of particular significance is that intra-regional export market shares grew faster than exports supplied by the United States, Canada and Mexico to countries outside NAFTA.

Clearly, North America has become an increasingly important market for U.S. agricultural exporters. Canada is now the largest importer of U.S. agricultural goods, displacing Japan in 2002. Mexico surpassed the EU as an export market for U.S. agriculture two years earlier.
