The U.S. exports billions of dollars worth of agricultural products each year — things like soybeans, corn and pork. And over the last month, these exports have been caught up in a trade war.
U.S. farmers have been collateral damage in a trade war before. In 2018, President Trump put tariffs on a bunch of Chinese products including flatscreen TVs, medical devices and batteries. But China matched those tariffs with their own retaliatory tariffs. They put tariffs on a lot of U.S. agricultural products they'd been buying, like soybeans, sorghum, and livestock. That choice looked strategic. Hitting these products with tariffs hurt Trump's voter base and might help China in a negotiation. And in some cases, China could find affordable alternative options from other countries.
Today on the show: what happened in 2018, how the government prevented some U.S. farms from going bankrupt, and what was lost even after the trade war ended.

If you're considering selling your business to employees or a family member, then you have one of the key components of the sale in place. You've got a potential buyer! Having a buyer already in mind changes the process. You probably won't have to hire (or pay) a business broker, and you won't have to go through the process of marketing your business or vetting interested parties.
It's still important to ensure you're mentally prepared for the transition and that you've gotten everything to navigate the sales process successfully.
Selling a Small Business to Employees or Loved Ones
For contractors and other small-business owners, selling what you've worked so hard to build can be bittersweet. It's exciting to move to the next phase of your life, but you want to know that your business is going to end up in the right hands.
