On Tuesday, the first shipment of American turkey products made its way to India, marking a pivotal moment in the trade relations between the United States and India.

This shipment follows India's agreement to lower tariffs on US turkey products after over a year of negotiations. Spearheaded by US Senator Mark Warner from Virginia, this development signifies a significant breakthrough in global trade, particularly benefiting US turkey producers.

With tariffs reduced, Virginia's poultry industry anticipates new opportunities, aiding nearly 200 independent turkey growers. The move marks a promising phase in US-India cooperation, with hopes for lucrative returns as the high-quality American turkey enters India's growing protein market.
