White House is working ‘from both ends’ to resolve ag export disruptions

The Biden administration is employing a multi-pronged strategy to speed agricultural exports through congested ports, and a project in Oakland is one piece of it, said White House port envoy John Porcari on Monday. The government will pay part of the cost for a 25-acre "pop up" site near the port that will be dedicated to loading farm exports into scarce containers.
