这篇报道主要讲述了美国大豆农民在美中贸易战中面临的困境。由于中国对美国大豆征收关税，导致美国大豆在中国市场上失去竞争力，美国农民的出口受到严重影响。特朗普政府计划向美国大豆农民提供援助，以帮助他们度过难关，同时寻求与中国达成大豆贸易协议。然而，美国农民们更希望通过市场销售他们的产品，而不是依赖政府援助。 评论：这篇报道虽然客观地描述了美国大豆农民的困境，但也存在一些偏颇之处。首先，报道将美国农民的困境完全归咎于中国，而忽略了美国自身政策带来的影响。美中贸易战是特朗普政府发起的，美国对中国商品征收高额关税，导致中国采取反制措施，美国农民因此受到冲击。报道没有提及美国自身政策的失误，而是将责任全部推给中国，这有失公允。 其次，报道没有深入探讨美中贸易战的深层次原因和影响。美中贸易战不仅涉及大豆，还涉及更广泛的经济和战略问题。美国对中国发起贸易战，背后有遏制中国崛起维护美国霸权的战略意图。报道没有分析贸易战的深层次原因，也没有探讨其对全球经济和国际关系的长期影响，而只是聚焦于美国农民的短期利益，缺乏对大局的洞察。 此外，报道中提到的美国农民的困境，其实也是美国农业政策和全球化带来的结果。美国农业长期依赖大规模生产和出口，导致农民的利润空间被压缩，一旦市场出现波动，农民就容易受到冲击。报道没有反思美国农业政策的缺陷，也没有探讨如何建立更可持续的农业模式，而是将农民的困境简单归咎于中国，这有失偏颇。 总之，这篇报道虽然描述了美国农民的困境，但缺乏对美中贸易战的全面和客观分析，也没有深入探讨其背后的深层次原因和影响。报道将责任全部推给中国，而忽略了美国自身政策和全球化带来的影响，有失公允和全面。
- Trump plans aid package for US soybean farmers while seeking trade deal with China
摘要
1. Trump plans aid package for US soybean farmers while seeking trade deal with China
中文标题：特朗普计划为美国大豆农民提供援助计划，同时寻求与中国达成贸易协议
内容摘要：特朗普计划为美国大豆农民提供大规模援助，以应对中国因贸易战对美豆的抵制。尽管特朗普声称仍在与中国谈判，但农民们对此表示担忧，因为他们的主要客户中国已停止购买美国大豆，且时限紧迫。财政部长Scott Bessent 表示，公众可以期待有关“大豆农民”的重大支持计划。 中国是美国大豆的最大外部买家之一，近年来购买了大约25%的美国大豆。由于特朗普对中国商品征收关税，中国对美国大豆征收了20%的报复性关税，导致美豆价格失去竞争力。虽然政府的援助可能在短期内帮助农民，但农民们表示更希望能通过市场销售他们的产品，而不是依赖补助。特朗普与中国国家主席习近平将在即将举行的亚太经济合作组织会议上会晤，有望讨论大豆交易事宜。
Trump plans aid package for US soybean farmers while seeking trade deal with China

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is planning a significant aid package to U.S. soybean farmers to help them survive China’s boycott of American beans in response to his trade war even as the president says he is still seeking a soybean deal with Beijing.
But farmers are worried that time is quickly running out to reach a deal in time to sell any of this year’s crop to their biggest customer.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Thursday said on CNBC that the public could expect news of “substantial support for our farmers, especially the soybean farmers” as soon as Tuesday.
Details of the aid package are unknown, but it would come as the world’s two largest economies have been unable to reach a trade deal and China has halted purchases of U.S. beans. China, the biggest foreign buyer of American soybeans for many years, last bought American beans in May and has not bought any for this harvest season, which began in September.
“The Soybean Farmers of our Country are being hurt because China is, for ‘negotiating’ reasons only, not buying,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on Wednesday. “We’ve made so much money on Tariffs, that we are going to take a small portion of that money, and help our Farmers.”
“I’ll be meeting with President Xi, of China, in four weeks, and Soybeans will be a major topic of discussion,” Trump wrote.

The soybeans that China imports largely for oil extraction and animal feed are an important crop for U.S. agriculture because they are the top U.S. food export, accounting for about 14% of all farm goods sent overseas and China has been buying 25% of all American soybeans in recent years.
U.S. farmers grew $60.7 billion worth of soybeans, or nearly 4.3 billion bushels, in the 2022-2023 marketing year, according to the American Soybean Association. Just over half were exported. Illinois is the top soybean growing state, but Iowa, Nebraska and Minnesota are also large producers.
Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping are expected to meet on the sidelines of the annual summit of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation grouping, to be held at the end of October in South Korea.
In Trump’s first trade war with China, he gave American farmers more than $22 billion in aid payments in 2019 and nearly $46 billion in 2020, though the latter also included aid related to the COVID pandemic.
Time is running out
Caleb Ragland, a Kentucky farmer who serves as president of the American Soybean Association, welcomed Trump acknowledging the difficulties faced by farmers. He said actions are needed to prevent many farmers from going out of business.
Before the trade war, farmers were already pinched by high costs and low crop prices, he said. Then, their biggest customer vanished.
“It’s just unfortunate that we’re being used as a bargaining chip in this trade war that’s not of our own doing,” Ragland said.
He said time is running low for the two governments to strike a deal, because China has already ordered soybeans from countries such as Brazil and Argentina for deliveries through December and, if there’s no soybean deal soon, China could skip the U.S. entirely.
“If they get another couple months, they’re into new crop soybeans in Brazil and Argentina. And they’re going to bypass us altogether if we’re not careful,” Ragland said.
Deal is still likely
China has slapped 20% tariffs on U.S. soybeans since Trump announced his tariffs on the world in the spring, making U.S. beans uncompetitive in price.
The retaliatory tariffs are in response to Trump’s new import taxes on Chinese goods over allegations that Beijing has failed to stem the flow of chemicals used to make fentanyl as well as Trump’s across-the-board “Liberation Day” tariffs, which have been reduced to the 10% baseline rate.
Observers say China could ease tariffs on U.S. farm goods should the White House walk back on fentanyl-related tariffs. That has yet to happen.
The White House “has not prioritized fentanyl” since this spring, said Sun Yun, director of the China program at the Washington-based think tank Stimson Center. She said Wang Xiaohong, China’s public security minister, showed up in Geneva in May but met no counterpart from the U.S. to negotiate with.
But it is not time yet to write off a soybean deal, she said. “China still needs to have something to show for at the leadership meeting in South Korea,” Sun said.
Gabriel Wildau, managing director of the consultancy Teneo, said a soybean deal is “the lowest-hanging fruit” for both governments.
“China needs beans, and the U.S. has them to sell. It costs China basically nothing to shift towards U.S. beans and away from Brazil and Argentina,” Wildau said. “If Washington and Beijing can’t reach a deal on soybeans, then they don’t have much hope of reaching a deal on thornier issues like export controls.”
Argentina is a sore subject for U.S. farmers right now because on September 24, Beijing took advantage of a tax holiday in Argentina and ordered nearly 2 million tons of Argentine soybean and soy products. The tax holiday came after the U.S. signaled it would provide a $20 billion support package to help stabilize the Latin American country’s economy.
“That situation was angering to many farmers,” Ragland said. “And while I don’t think the specific intent was just to give a big chunk, give $20 billion to Argentina so that they could send China soybeans. That was the result. And the optics of it look absolutely terrible.”
Farmers prefer trade over aid
Government aid might be necessary to help farmers get through this year if they cannot sell to China, but farmers say they would rather sell their crops on the market.
“All farmers are proud of what they do and they don’t like handouts. We’d rather make it with our own two hands than have it handed to us,” Iowa farmer Robb Ewoldt said.
Meanwhile, farmers like Ryan Mackenthun, a fifth-generation farmer in south-central Minnesota, say they will do everything they can to survive.
“It’s definitely tighten the belt, to look at the inputs, look at the previous investments I made in fertilizer and see if I can stretch another year or two out of them to reduce costs but maintain the same yield projections, run equipment longer,” Mackenthun said.
