2025 has been a rough year for farmers.

Mike Lavender from the National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition says tariffs were a big reason why.

After Trump slapped big tariffs on imports, China largely stopped buying American farm products, including soybeans.

That hit hard.

President Trump says this latest relief package will help them.

Farmers can start applying for relief this month.
