Survey results indicate that farmers back President Trump's tariff fight, but don't think it helps them.
, the impacts are starting to pile up – particularly in the nation’s farming communities where tariffs targeting agricultural products are hitting hard. And with 2020 approaching, the ongoing dispute could have serious electoral implications.
But since the fight began, U.S. agriculture exports to China have plummeted from $19.5 billion in 2017 to just $9.2 billion in 2018. That was the lowest amount since 2007. There is another level in the results of that same survey, however, that raises some questions about what farmers actually think about the larger impact of the tariffs.
What does that mean for the coming presidential campaign? That’s harder to assess. Primary season is not even here yet and the U.S.-China trade fight could be resolved in the intervening months.
