| 0:00.0 | Give us the contours of the deal. |
| 0:04.0 | Right. |
| 0:05.0 | Let's just jump right into what President Trump is saying that they actually did agree upon. |
| 0:09.0 | He said, number one, that there was an agreement on China that would be repurchasing soybeans, |
| 0:16.0 | that they had effectively stopped purchasing over the course of the summer because of the sky-high tariffs |
| 0:20.0 | that were placed on the United States at one point up to 145%. |
| 0:24.2 | President Trump says that he agreed to drop the current tariff rate by 10% because China |

| 1:28.2 | agricultural goods that the Trump administration is saying China committed to buying, I want to be |
| 1:34.1 | very clear. And I think we've got a graphic where you can look at last 10 years about the |
| 1:39.1 | amount of soybeans that China has bought from the United States. And you look at last year, and in |
| 1:44.5 | 2023, it was 26.8 and 26.4 million metric tons. To put that in context, Scott Bessent |
