President Trump’s administration will announce a plan on Today to extend billions of dollars in aid to farmers affected by tariffs, a source familiar with the matter confirmed to CNN.
Trump had previously directed Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue to explore options to mitigate financial losses US farmers are suffering as trade tensions between the US and other countries heat up.
US agriculture exports have been a prime target of China and other countries that have retaliated against the series of tariffs Trump has imposed in recent months.
