Estelline, South Dakota farmer and Farm Bureau board member Jerry Runia sees the forward movement with trade as a step in the right direction. Those thoughts came after hearing President Donald Trump speak Sunday. Accoring to Runia, trade aids in providing certainty. “We haven’t had a president that ever went this far before to get a $200 billion dollar trade deal put together with China,” says Runia. “In the past, China did $26 billion worth of trade and now we’re looking at $40 billion for agriculture in the coming year. That will have a big impact.”
