farmers losing markets

China’s finance ministry said the country is imposing an additional 15% tariff on U.S. chicken, wheat, corn and cotton products, and an additional 10% tariff on sorghum, soybeans, pork, beef, seafood, fruits, vegetables and dairy products.



Trump has been talking how his policies are going to help farmers, such as his tariffs planned
for EU products and South America products.


Looks like a mixed bag.

China has been investing in South American Agriculture for the last 20 years.


China never complied with the Ag agreements they agreed to from Trumps first term in office.


China has never complied with WTO agreements since they were allowed in the WTO.


Trump at least understands the issues, Democrats put their head in the sand and blame Republicans

No idea what you are trying to interject.


Tariffs will lower demand for agricultural products. Commodity prices will decline. Farmers will make
less money. Some may have to close up shop. Most farmers and rural America voted for Trump.

Remember Trump's last 'trade war' with China?

Ending up spending everything the tariffs took in plus more in support for the farmers who lost the markets due to the trade war.

Those who do not remember history....

I am well aware what causes commodity prices to change. These actions by Trump don't look like they will benefit the American farmer.


Or American agriculture companies. Did you see ADM stock price today.....
