WASHINGTON—The United States is willing to make "serious" agricultural concessions as part of a new world trade deal if other countries open their markets to more U.S. manufacturing and services exports, President George W. Bush said on Friday.

"We're willing to make serious concessions on the agricultural front, but we expect other nations to open up their markets on manufacturing as well as services," Bush said in a joint news conference with Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd.
