U.S. farmers lost one of their biggest customers this week after China officially cancelled all purchases of U.S. agricultural products, a retaliatory move following President Donald Trump's pledge to slap 10% tariffs on $300 billion of Chinese imports.

China's exit piles on to a devastating year for farmers, who have struggled through record flooding and an extreme heat wave that destroyed crop yields, and trade war escalations that have lowered prices and profits this year.

"It's really, really getting bad out here," said Bob Kuylen, who's farmed for 35 years in North Dakota.

"Trump is ruining our markets. No one is buying our product no more, and we have no markets no more."

Agriculture exports to China dropped by more than half last year. In 2017, China imported $19.5 billion in agricultural goods, making it the second-largest buyer overall for American farmers. In 2018, that dropped to $9.2 billion as the trade war escalated, according to the United States Department of Agriculture.

This year, China's agricultural imports from the U.S are down roughly 20%, and U.S. grain, dairy and livestock farmers have seen their revenue evaporate as a result. Over the last 6 years, farm income has dropped 45% from $123.4 billion in 2013 to $63 billion last year, according to the USDA..

"There's no incentive to keep farming, except that I've invested everything I have in farming, and it's hard to walk away," he said.

"When four to five generations ahead of you have succeeded, and you come along and fail, you don't see it as not your fault. You snap."

Zippy Duvall, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, said China's exit is a "body blow to thousands of farmers and ranchers who are already struggling to get by."

"It's killing us," said Mark Watne, a wheat and soybean farmer who is president of the North Dakota Farmers Union. Watne said he lost $3 per bushel of soybeans he planted this year.

"They [the White House] should start thinking about another major bailout," he added. "Either you let a bunch of farmers go broke or you do another payout."

Loyalty to Trump

Farmers are an important voting base for Trump, who is running for reelection next year. While he's given no indication of backing off in the trade war, struggling farmers appear to remain loyal.

Trump's overall approval rating is 79% among farmers, according to a Farm Pulse survey taken last month. And a record-high number of farmers, some 78%, said the trade war will ultimately benefit U.S. agriculture, according to a July survey from Purdue Center for Commercial Agriculture. More than 75% of rural farmers voted for Trump in the 2016 election.

Mike Knipper, a grain farmer from Iowa who likes some of Trump's policies and dislikes others, said that most farmers in his community are Trump supporters who will continue to support him through the trade war.

"It doesn't matter who is president. People like Trump and will support him, and few will change their ideas," he said.
