Red state #soybean #farmers all voted for #Trump . Trump put a 54% #tariff on all #Chinese goods. #China then put a 34% tariff on #American goods including soybeans which will drive the red state farmers out of business. So, really, who are the soyboy cucks now?

The complexity of #SynComs can limit their application. Li et al. propose a strategy for constructing a simplified and functional SynCom (sfSynCom) in this breakthrough new study published in #JIPB!

#c4news economics editor nailed it: "it seems #China knows exactly where to apply the pressure". China has announced retaliatory #tariffs of 10-15% on #agriculture goods, incl. #soybean and corn, China being the largest market for US #farmers.
Notice how the tariffs hit #Republican states (#Iowa, #Illinois #Missouri)?
Genius! Can't wait for #MAGA tears when the double whammy of plummeting revenue and #inflation hit them. #theartofthedeal

China's policy to increase #soybean & corn production and decrease #meat consumption can diminish 3rd country's #exports to China. (Due to the rise of obesity-related #health problems, the government plans to reduce meat consumption by half): https://doi.org/10.1002/aepp.13462 #China #trade #maize #corn

“#Bloomberg says the American #Soybean Association has been notified by growers that payments associated with the Climate-Smart Commodities Program have been suspended. The ASA stressed to the #USDA that it should honor the contractual agreement it made with #farmers.
Senate #Ag Committee #Democrats joined Ranking Member Amy #Klobuchar in sending a letter to USDA requesting information on actions taken by USDA to pause these payments.
