Downing Street said Boris Johnson wants to “maximise” the benefits of trade deals as he intervened in the Cabinet row over a planned agreement with Australia.
The Prime Minister chaired a meeting of senior colleagues as negotiations with Australia about the terms of a deal continued.
International Trade Secretary Liz Truss and Environment Secretary George Eustice are thought to be at odds over the proposals and the impact they might have on British farmers.

Boris Johnson is willing to provide Australia tariff-free access to UK food markets despite fears it could decimate the rural economy.
Farmers launched a furious backlash yesterday against the proposal to grant Australian produce privileged access, fearing it would mean British farmers with high welfare standards will struggle to compete.
The plan to give Australian food exporters the same terms as the European Union could potentially wipe out agriculture if the terms are replicated in other agreements, the PM has been warned.
The Cabinet is also divided, with International Trade Secretary Liz Truss facing stiff opposition to the plans from Environment Secretary George Eustice.
