U.S. trims soybean tariff on Chinese purchases to 47% (from 57%)
- A recent trade note says U.S. tariffs on Chinese soybean purchases were cut from 57% to 47% for a specified tranche of buys. - The adjustment covers a 12‑million‑ton window in late 2025 and a potential 25‑million‑ton annual framework for 2026–28. - The move is a tactical tariff softening that changes agricultural flows and political leverage in U.S.‑China trade talks.
