The clock is ticking for China to purchase 12 million metric tons of U.S. soybeans before the end of the year. Deputy Agriculture Secretary Stephen Vaden told the Red River Farm Network he expects Beijing to honor the deal. “I’m confident the Chinese understand Joe Biden is no longer in the White House; that means if they don’t live up to their arrangements, Donald Trump will do something,” said Vaden. “If there’s one thing I have complete confidence in, it’s that anyone who crosses an agreement made by President Trump—it does not end well for them.” The full interview can be found on the Red River Farm Network website.
