The lack of Chinese imports puts many soybean farmers in a lurch. This growing season ends with low prices, unsold harvests, big financial losses and uncertainty going into the next season despite a tentative new deal with China. From @cstephenson.bsky.social, Gabby Nelson & Monica Cordero Sancho.
Soybeans have been a top U.S. ag export for decades. What happens when the top buyer stops buying? • Tennessee Lookout
U.S. soybean farmers have learned in 2025 that being heavily reliant on China for export sales is only good when things are good.
