Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley says President Trump’s two-day trade trip to China last week should prove fruitful for Iowa farmers, as China’s agreed to buy at least 25-million metric tons of U-S soybeans in each of the following three years. Grassley says, “On top of its soybean commitment, China will purchase at least 17-billion per year in ag products and will restore access to beef and poultry products.” Reports say China’s also agreed to buy U-S-made passenger jets from Boeing. The White House released some details of the trip on Sunday, but China has not confirmed any of the reported deals.
