# Soybean Futures Rise as U.S. Presses China

> U.S. officials urged China to immediately carry out soybean and agricultural purchase commitments made under prior trade arrangements. The commitments include buying 25 million tons of U.S. soybeans annually for three years, with a separate pledge for additional U.S. agricultural purchases through 2028; officials may seek to accelerate buying ahead of a possible mid-November Trump-Xi meeting.

## Why it matters

If China fulfills or brings forward the commitments, U.S. export demand would increase and support soybean prices. The price impact depends on whether the diplomatic pressure leads to actual purchases.
