US Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins told the Financial Times that the Trump administration plans to use tariff revenues to support US farmers. Rollins stated, “It’s possible we’ll announce a serious support package soon.”
This move comes after China halted soybean purchases from the US and tariffs increased the cost of fertilizers, machinery, and other imported inputs.
The agricultural sector has become one of the most critical fronts in the trade war between Washington and Beijing.
Trump’s tariffs directly affect both farmers and agricultural production costs. The White House has not yet made an official statement on the matter, but industry representatives expect a quick solution due to increasing pressure.
