China bought a record amount of soybeans… NONE from the U.S.
In Iowa, soybean farmers have spent decades building a relationship with China. Because of Trump’s trade war(s), we’ve lost the market and they’re now coming from Brazil. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-09-08/china-bolsters-soybean-stockpiles-ahead-of-us-export-surge And once the supply chain is established, it is virtually impossible to regain. I am not sure how the US midwest farm export producers recover from this. And US taxpayers are not going to be able to simply subisidize their lives forever without balancing income. But let's keep being distracted by Epstein and culture war distractions. |
