President Trump announces a $12 billion aid plan for farmers

🔸 President Trump announced a $12 billion aid plan aimed at helping farmers affected by the trade war. China has been reducing purchases of U.S. soybeans for several months, and although purchases have now resumed, they have not returned to normal levels.

🔸 About $11 billion will be paid directly to farmers in the form of "transitional assistance," funded by tariff revenues.

🔸 The White House stated that this aid plan will help farmers survive during the implementation of the Trump administration's new economic and trade policies.

🔸 By August 2025, tariff revenues had reached approximately $149 billion. Some reports predict that if this trend continues, total annual tariff revenues could reach $300 billion.
