Soybean farmers are once again caught in the crossfire of global politics. As President Trump prepares a new aid package to offset China’s boycott of U.S. soybeans, many growers say what they really need isn’t a bailout—it’s a buyer. With harvest season underway and China turning to Brazil and Argentina, time is running out to salvage a market that once bought a quarter of America’s crop. The question now is whether trade—or aid—will come first. Didi Tang with Associated Press has the full story.
