The top three sources of agricultural imports to the United States are Mexico, Canada, and the European Union, accounting for almost 58 percent of all agricultural sales to the United States between 2021–25. The first and second largest suppliers are Mexico and Canada, averaging $43.8 billion and $37.8 billion annually in 2021–25, respectively. Mexico supplied roughly one third of U.S. horticultural product imports—including fruit, vegetables, and alcoholic beverages. Canada is a large supplier of processed food products (baked goods), meat, vegetable oils, and vegetables. The third largest source is the European Union, averaging $34.0 billion in 2021–25—with high-value products such as wine, spirits, and essential oils accounting for most of the value. South America (led by Brazil, Colombia, and Peru) averaged $23.3 billion in U.S. agricultural imports from 2021–25—mostly in horticultural, and sugar and tropical products that have comparative or seasonal advantages.
