This week, I’m leading a delegation to Germany to grow trade between Nebraska and the European Union (EU). Our delegation includes the Nebraska Department of Economic Development, the University of Nebraska, ag producers, busi-ness leaders, and several other members. Together, we’ll promote Nebraska products and machinery, thank companies that have created jobs in Nebraska, and invite German firms to invest in our state.

Germany has the largest population and biggest economy of the EU’s member states. Germany is the world’s fourth-biggest economy. Strengthening Nebraska’s connections there is an important part of my administration’s strategy to grow Nebraska globally. In total, the EU purchased $1.2 billion of Nebraska exports in 2018, including $245 million of soybeans.

Because of its economic strength, Germany has significant influence over EU trade policies. During our mission, we are meeting with key leaders in Germany’s govern-ment, both at the federal and local levels, to discuss ways to reduce trade barriers to Nebraska agricultural exports.

This week’s trade mission will also allow us to promote Nebraska beef. In August, President Trump signed a new deal with the EU to increase beef exports from the U.S. to the European Union. The agreement nearly triples the amount of duty-free beef that the EU imports from America each year. This is fantastic news for us as the Beef State. In 2005, Nebraska supplied only 5 percent of U.S. beef exported to the EU. By 2018, our share had risen to 53 percent and was valued at $124.3 million. During our time in Germany, we’ll meet with distributors to discuss how to further grow the amount of Nebraska beef available in European grocery stores and restaurants.

Agritechnica, the biggest agricultural trade fair in the world, is one of the most important stops during our mission. Held in the city of Hannover, Agritechnica fea-tures 2,800 exhibitors and hosts 450,000 visitors from 130 countries. Nebraska com-panies, such as Lindsay Corporation and Orthman Manufacturing, will have exhibits there. The trade fair showcases agricultural technologies and will give us a chance to learn about the latest scientific advancements in the industry. We will also talk with European purchasers to promote the innovative farm equipment and machinery manufactured right here in Nebraska.

Our trade delegation will also visit German companies that have created jobs in Nebraska. For example, we are meeting with executives from CLAAS and Graepel, both of which have their North American headquarters in Omaha. CLAAS manufac-tures agricultural machinery like harvesters and balers, and Graepel produces sheet metal products. We will also spend time with leaders from Evonik, a manufacturer of specialty chemicals that has produced lysine in Blair since 1999. Additionally, we will sit down with the team at Bayer, a German company that recently purchased Monsanto. Bayer, which has been doing crop science research and development in Nebraska for years, has multiple facilities across the state. This July, I teamed up with Bayer to highlight the importance of detassel-ing during visits to York and Seward. I also traveled to Bayer’s St. Louis headquarters in September to speak with their leadership. Bayer has made substantial investments in crop research at our state’s universities. The company collaborates with faculty at the University of Nebraska to research pest control methods and to study the precision management of water and nutrients. Having in-person, face-to-face meetings with leaders of these businesses will deepen our state’s relationship with them and set the stage to grow the relationships for years to come.

Ethanol presents another opportunity for this mis-sion. In May, the European Commission (EC) eliminated restrictive duties on U.S. ethanol. Those duties had largely closed off the European market to Nebraska ethanol since 2013. In light of the EC’s decision to do away with them, we’ll explore opportunities to bring Nebraska’s quality ethanol products to the German fuel market. We will also encourage German officials to recon-sider other trade barriers that have made it difficult for U.S. ethanol producers to sell to Europe.

Nebraska’s economy continues to grow. According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, Nebraska’s GDP growth has outperformed the national average in the first two quarters of 2019. For the second quarter of 2019, our state’s GDP growth was 2.4 percent, which was 12th best in the nation. This success would not be possible without the hard work, determination, and resilience of our people. We have endured blizzards, floods, trade chal-lenges with China, and more in 2019. But despite it all, our state continues to thrive thanks to the hard work and innovation of our people.

Growing Trade Between Nebraska and Europe

Pete RickettsNebraska Governor

In Western Ne-braska the term, “Big Mac,” often refers to some-thing much big-ger than a ham-burger. Lake McConaughy, or Big Mac, is the aquatic pride and joy of the Panhan-dle, and, yes, it is much bigger than a hamburger.

I recently attended a fundraiser at Lake McConaughy that was sponsored by the Ogallala Rotary Club. In fact, this year marked the fourth time I at-tended the Kayak Big Mac. Kayak Big Mac is the Rotary Club’s annual fund-raiser for water projects.

This year the Ogallala Rotary Club set out to raise money to pay for swim-ming lessons for needy children. Water safety is essential in watery places like Big Mac, so it is important that all kids know how to swim.

Kayak Big Mac brings in people from out of town and gets them outdoors to enjoy the lake during the offseason. Participants prepare ahead of time by getting people to sponsor them. Then, when the big day arrives they start the day off with a pancake breakfast, then they paddle their kayaks three miles across the lake. Once they reach their final destination, they get to warm up with a hot bowl of chili.

The event was a big success and no one fell out of their kayak. This year the Kayak Big Mac had 46 par-ticipants, approximately 80 spectators and brought in $1,800. Not bad for a day of kayaking on a cold and blustery day!

Next spring the Ogallala Rotary Club will be partnering up with the Goodall Recreation Center to talk to school children about water safety. They plan to give kindergarteners a copy of the book, Josh the Otter, and talk to parents about how to sign up for free swimming lessons.

Finally, I would like to remind eve-ryone to continue to remember our veterans beyond Veterans Day. If you think about it, every day should really be Veterans Day. Is there ever a day when we should not be thankful for their service to our country?

Veterans Day is a day we set aside to intentionally honor our veterans. But, just as it means more to a parent when their child expresses thanksgiving for a gift without being coaxed to do so, so also it means more to a veteran to hear those words of gratitude for their ser-vice and sacrifice from American citi-zens on days other than Veterans Day. So, let’s be intentional this year about thanking veterans throughout the year and not just on those days when we are supposed to.

May we never forget that all gave some, but some gave all. Thank you veterans.
