Donald Trump says "our farmers are going to be happy" about trade talks benefits for U.S. agriculture

During a meeting at the White House on Sept. 25, President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping wrapped up a multi‑day dialogue that included ceremonial events but yielded few concrete resolutions on major points of contention such as trade, technology, Taiwan and Iran. Trump said the talks would bring benefits to U.S. agriculture, though he offered no details. The two leaders also decided to lengthen a short‑term suspension of tariff measures for another two months, giving both sides extra time to work toward a broader trade arrangement, and to allow limited exemptions for selected farm products, medical items and consumer goods. U.S. trade officials indicated that specifics of the modest trade concessions will be disclosed soon, and both presidents announced plans for additional meetings later in the year.
