US President Donald Trump on Monday urged China to increase its purchases of American soybeans, framing it as a way to address Beijing’s domestic shortages and reduce its trade surplus with the United States.

“China is worried about its shortage of soybeans. Our great farmers produce the most robust soybeans. I hope China will quickly quadruple its soybean orders. This is also a way of substantially reducing China’s Trade Deficit with the USA. Rapid service will be provided. Thank you President XI," Trump said.
