Toltek/iStock via Getty Images U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer expects China to pledge "double-digit billions" in annual American agricultural purchases as Presidents Donald Trump and Xi Jinping conclude their high-stakes summit in Beijing. Greer noted the 25 million metric ton per year soybean deal agreed last October and said the U.S. also expects to "see an agreement for double-digit billion purchases of ags over the next three years per year coming out of this visit." "And that's more general, that's aggregate. That's not just soybeans, that's everything else," he said in an interview on Bloomberg Television. Separately, Trump said in an interview aired on Thursday evening on Fox News' "Hannity" program that "China will buy a lot of our farm products." It was not immediately clear what products would be included and whether soybeans would be a part of the "double-digit billion purchases", but traders and analysts said they expected the existing soybean commitment to be part of the deal, which alone would be worth more than $10B. Soybean futures in Chicago rose as much as 0.8%, with corn climbing as much as 1.3% and wheat edging higher.
