Tariffs aren't the whole soybean story. We had a bumper crop and Brazil is having a bumper crop. And by the way, the Chinese have started buying US soybeans again.

That would make no sense. Are you saying that Latin America bought US soybeans and sold them to China? That would be fine with US farmers. That would be an end run around Chinese restrictions, not US restrictions.
The Chinese have been buying South American soybeans for quite awhile. Brazil has a bumper crop this year.

Latin American Countries' Rising Trade with China
I heard Latin America are buying bargain Soy and selling it to china which is still less than buying from the US because of the tariffs.
So the US farmers lose and china wins again.
