America’s Farmers Need USMCA More Than Ever

For many American farmers, Canada and Mexico have become indispensable export markets at a time when trade disputes, weak commodity prices, and rising costs are already straining the agricultural economy. Iowa farmer Stu Swanson says many producers are operating on dwindling hope as financial pressures mount. CoBank CEO Tom Halverson argues that trade deals have helped US exports to Canada and Mexico grow roughly 600 since NAFTA’s creation. As negotiations begin, farmers are less focused on expanding the agreement than on preserving certainty and avoiding new disruptions that could further weaken an already fragile farm economy.

— Chinese cars are rapidly conquering Europe: their share of new sales has exceeded 10 for the first time, according to Bloomberg.Europeans are massively choosing models that offer better performance at a lower price. The demand for hybrids and electric cars is particularly increasing.Chinese automakers have access to a range of domestic subsidies, including grants, cheap land plots, and financing, which reduce their cost of production.They can also benefit from government support in Europe. For example, in Germany, the government has launched a new program to stimulate sales of zero-emission cars worth 3 billion euros, as well as subsidies for hybrids for low-income families. As a result, since the introduction of subsidies, the biggest sales growth in Germany has been demonstrated by Chinese brands, particularly MG and BYD - by 50-75.The European Union is striving to protect its automakers, such as Volkswagen, Stellantis, and Renault, but the additional tariffs imposed by Brussels, which came into effect in 2024, only apply to fully electric cars made in China, while the trade barriers for hybrids are lower.@Intelslava
