# Tariffs and supply chain not on agenda for Biden-Xi meeting | 2021-11-14 | Agri-Pulse Communications, Inc.

> A White House official said tariffs and supply chain issues would not be on the agenda for the upcoming virtual Biden-Xi meeting. China buys U.S. corn, soybeans, sorghum and pork only when it grants ad hoc tariff exemptions. U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods remain in place.

## Why it matters

Without a tariff resolution, China's purchases of U.S. feed grains stay uncertain and exemption-dependent. This keeps a risk premium on U.S. export demand but signals no immediate price change.
