There is apprehension about a potential trade war with tariffs scheduled to kick in Tuesday. South Dakota farmer Kevin Scott is a past president of the American Soybean Association and said tariffs are part of the negotiating process. “The negotiating process is something the current president does really well,” said Scott. “Some things that are said seem outrageous right off the bat, but I’ve learned to let it lay a while and think about it and don’t react right away; hopefully, it’ll turn out great for agriculture.”
