- US soybean growers are shifting sales to other buyers and biofuels after China's import decline.
- China pledged in November to buy at least 25 million tonnes of US soybeans through 2028 after halting purchases during President Donald Trump’s early-2025 trade war.
- Only more than 12 million tonnes are on track for China, about half its usual imports.
- Scott Gerlt said growers rely on higher sales to foreign buyers and rising biofuel demand.
