Farmers Face $44B Loss, Trump's $12B Aid 'Lifeline'

American farmers, particularly soybean farmers, are grappling with significant financial losses due to low crop prices and reduced export opportunities from trade disputes. President Trumps twelve billion dollar aid package offers temporary relief, but many farmers and experts view it as a lifeline rather than a long-term solution. The aid is intended to bridge the gap until new farm support programs take effect, but many farmers plan to use it to pay down debt rather than invest in new equipment or working capital.The Daily News Now! — Every city.
