  • Foreign Agricultural Service
    FOREIGN AGRICULTURAL SERVICE PURPOSE STATEMENT The Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) is unique within the U.S. Government for its sole focus on global agricultural trade and food security issues. This recognized expertise is trusted by the broader U.S. agricultural community, from farmers and ranchers to food processors, other U.S. government agencies, and non-governmental organizations to provide sound, reliable and consistent intelligence on foreign agricultural markets, crop conditions and agro-political dynamics. The agency’s on the ground global network of agricultural attachés and locally employed staff provide an unparalleled resource for understanding trade policy and market development issues as they arise. Through this talented and highly skilled staff FAS has built long-term, agriculture-specific relationships with foreign stakeholders that are invaluable to building institutional knowledge of host countries’ agricultural sectors. This knowledge is put to work on maintaining a level playing field for U.S. food and agricultural exports abroad and expanding new opportunities in countries with market potential. FAS links U.S. agriculture to the world to enhance export opportunities and global food security. FAS facilitates international trade and trade cooperation, which are critical to the economic vitality of the U.S. agricultural sector and the Administration’s top economic priority: job creation. Increased economic activity in food and agricultural- related sectors of the economy help rural communities build and maintain prosperity. Nowhere is this more evident than in agricultural trade. In fact, our strategic goal is to generate an additional $89 billion worth of U.S. economic activity by expanding export opportunities for U.S.

  • New Employee Resource Guide
    New Employee Resource Guide Welcome to APHIS! Congratulations on becoming a member of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). APHIS employees work in all 50 states, several territories, and 25 countries worldwide. We are on the job 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, protecting America’s agricultural and natural resources. There are two core beliefs that guide APHIS’ work every day; the first is that healthy and profitable agriculture is good for America because it means feeding and clothing the world. The second is that the Government’s role is to do collectively what none of us can do for ourselves. APHIS’ employees are dedicated, compassionate, and highly motivated individuals who work hard to improve the lives of Americans on a daily basis. And now you are a part of that mission. We keep animals and plants healthy—allowing people to enjoy a safe and abundant food supply and protecting the livelihood of our farmers and ranchers. We negotiate trade deals to help agricultural products get to the global marketplace. And we work on the cutting edge of biotechnology and protect the welfare of animals. This work could not be accomplished without the help of our support units. They help APHIS and its programs accomplish mission critical work by using their expertise in analysis, finance, communications, planning, training, recruitment and talent management, civil rights, and health and safety. The support units make the most of APHIS’ resources and create a unified Agency identity. Much of the work in APHIS is constant, like issuing permits or inspecting licensed facilities.

Congratulations on becoming a member of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service. The APHIS team includes employees in all 50 States, several territories, and 25 countries worldwide. We are on the job 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, protecting America’s agricultural and natural resources. Our efforts benefit millions of Americans every day. Protecting America’s agricultural and natural resources means many things. It means ensuring the health of our animal and plant resources both at home and as they move through the global marketplace; guarding against the introduction of animal and plant pests and diseases that could limit U.S. agricultural production and damage export markets; and monitoring and responding to detections of invasive species, disease outbreaks, and conflicts between humans and wildlife. It means ensuring the humane treatment of animals under the Animal Welfare Act and making sure that biotechnology-derived agricultural products are safe for release into the environment. As America’s agricultural needs and complexities multiply in the years ahead, APHIS’ goal is to adapt proactively to these new challenges. As a new employee, you are vital to shaping a future that protects generations of America’s agricultural and natural resources. We respect the unique talent and contribution you bring with you to this Agency and we will do all we can to maximize that uniqueness. That’s our goal, our mission . and our promise.
