45% is the projected share of livestock in total production in North America by 2033 (OECD and FAO, 2024).
10% is the projected increase in milk production in the United States and 21% in Canada by 2033 (OECD and FAO, 2024).
19% is the projected growth in the value of imports into North America by 2033, compared to a 13% increase in the value of exports (OECD and FAO, 2024).

They reached US$20.559 billion, representing just over 13% of the total import value of the subregion (Furche, 2024).
More than US$10 billion is the surplus exhibited by the aggregated trade balance of the CAN agricultural sector, reflecting its strong export performance (Furche, 2024).
Imports have steadily grown since 2018, with peaks in 2021 and 2022, due to rising international prices of commodities in which CAN countries have deficits, such as cereals and oilseeds (Furche, 2024).
