An ag economist with Purdue University says time will tell if China’s decision to put a hold on tariffs and buy more US goods will have a huge impact on the ag industry.
Chris Hurt says the trade dispute between the two countries has been a “cloud hanging over the marketplace.”
“That cloud doesn’t totally go away because essentially what has happened is that China and the United States have agreed to put on hold these differences of opinion and probably will bring them back up at some future time,” he says.
