And simple math will tell you that a "cheaper" yuan means that Chinese consumers can afford fewer "expensive" dollar-denominated American imports. Which is ... not a gift. Second, the fact that soybean prices are down an estimated 9% since Trump blustered us into this stupid trade war is nothing to brag about. The Federal Reserve finally cut interest rates, partly out of fear that the trade war is damaging the economy, and partly because inflation rates are too low. Third of all, while some mostly large farmers are getting a windfall, most are just breaking even, or worse. North Dakota soybean farmer Mark Watne told CNBC that he lost $3 per bushel of soybeans this year, and that was before China announced it was cutting all American agricultural imports to zero. Fourth, the news is absolutely reporting on Trump's efforts to buy off farmers using the American taxpayers' checkbook. From the linked article "More than 2,300 counties that voted for Trump in 2016 have received money from the bailout program, and counties that flipped from voting for Barack Obama in 2012 to Trump in 2016 were more likely to get money than counties that were red during both elections" [link to www.cnbc.com (secure)] And finally, GODDAMMIT, THE CHINESE ARE NOT PAYING THOSE TARIFFS! |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77917582 China’s exit piles on to a devastating year for farmers, who have struggled through record flooding and an extreme heat wave that destroyed crop yields, and trade war escalations that have lowered prices and profits this year. “It’s really, really getting bad out here,” said Bob Kuylen, who’s farmed for 35 years in North Dakota. “Trump is ruining our markets. No one is buying our product no more, and we have no markets no more.” Agriculture exports to China dropped by more than half last year. In 2017, China imported $19.5 billion in agricultural goods, making it the second-largest buyer overall for American farmers. In 2018, that dropped to $9.2 billion as the trade war escalated, according to the United States Department of Agriculture. China’s exit will most impact U.S. grain farmers. China is the world’s top buyer of American soybeans, buying about 60% of U.S. soybean exports last year. Analysts estimate that soybean prices have dropped 9% since the beginning of the trade war. Soybean exports to China have dropped by 75% from September 2018 to May 2019, compared to the same nine-month period in 2017 and 2018, according to data from the USDA. “It’s killing us,” said Mark Watne, a wheat and soybean farmer who is president of the North Dakota Farmers Union. Watne said he lost $3 per bushel of soybeans he planted this year.
