The countrys july the worlds second largest economy. The countrysjuly exports are expected to have declined by 2 , year earlier, falling for the second month in a row. At the same time, imports forecasts have contracted more than 8 . Todays data comes after a week in which both the us and china stepped up the trade war. Last friday the Trump Administration said it would impose 10 tariffs on another 300 billion worth of chinese imports, and in response, beijing confirmed on monday that Chinese Companies had stopped purchases of american agricultural products. The same day, the chinese currency breached the key seven per dollar level for the first time in more than a decade. The next day the us further increased tensions by labelling beijing a currency manipulatorfor the labelling beijing a currency manipulator for the First Time Since 1984. Earlier i was joined manipulator for the First Time Since 1984. Earlier i wasjoined byjim sutton, the chief of the us soybean export council, and i asked how much the trade war was impacting his industry. Soybean exports to china we re industry. Soybean exports to china were our number industry. Soybean exports to china were oui number one industry. Soybean exports to china were our number one market. So 60 of the crops our farmers produce is exported outside of the us. China has over the last many years been oui has over the last many years been our largest market stop we have been doing work for 38 years to try and grow our business there, and have been quite successful as the chinese economy was growing, their demand for soybeans has grown. And i have some soybeans to show you, thank you for bringing them in. It is a tiny team, but china the uss top importer of these beans tiny bean. It is an enormous market to lose. So just how damaging has bean. It is an enormous market to lose. Sojust how damaging has it been for you . Farmers planted their crop in 2018 expecting to have a normal marketing opportunity with china taking roughly 40 of what they produced in terms of soybeans. By they produced in terms of soybeans. By the time the crop was harvested, the door to the Chinese Market had essentially been closed. We had seen small purchases by china, but our exports will be less than a third of what they would normally be. So how are you mitigating the loss to china . Where are you exporting to . So we are cultivating many markets around the world, and we have a long history. I am around the world, and we have a long history. Iam here around the world, and we have a long history. I am here for a buyer s conference in singapore, we are also celebrating our 40th anniversary of having a presence in southeast asia. Later this year we will be celebrating our 50th anniversary of having a presence in europe. So it is not like, you know, we dont have other markets we can work in. You have other markets, yet you are still going to china after this, you said. And what are you aiming to do there . I aim to find out really. It is kind of a Fact Finding Mission to understand what the opportunities are and what the situation on the ground is at this point in time. So were trying to mitigate these things, as you said. We are trying to grow our market share in established markets by pointing out the advantages of us soil, many customers around the world know but some are still learning, and we are also doing work very early on in emerging markets where there is active Economic Growth, and we see those as being the markets of the future. Those will be five or ten yea rs future. Those will be five or ten years down the road, but we think that those places will really be a future opportunity. That was jim sutter from the us soybean export council. Speaking of the us china trade war, another salvo in the latest row. The Trump Administration has Just Announced a ban on federal agencies using Huawei Technology and services among other chinese tech giants. It comes at a time when chinese tech giants are pressing for more clarity about what kind of business they can do with huawei. Because of the global trade tensions, Central Banks around the world have been cutting the cost of borrowing. There is even more pressure on the us central bank, despite last weeks cut, thanks to a series of tweets from president trump. Lets take a look at the latest one. It says three more Central Banks cut rates. Our problem isa Central Banks cut rates. Our problem is a Federal Reserve that is too proud of a federal too proud. He is talking about cuts in thailand and india. Sameer hashmi has more from mumbai. It was widely expected there would be a rate cut but what really took everybody by surprise was the npc, the 6 Member Committee that decides on interest rates, decided to cut the key lending rate by 35 basis points, which is higher than expected. The main reason for thatis than expected. The main reason for that is the state of the economy. The Indian Economy has been struggling, consumer demand has gone down, businesses have been struggling, and they have also been finding it difficult to borrow money. So that was really the real reason or the main driver behind this decision. Thats here what the governor of the reserve bank of india had to say after the decision was made. With inflation predicted to remain within target, addressing growth concerns by boosting aggregate demand, especially private investment, assumes the highest priority at this juncture. Investment, assumes the highest priority at thisjuncture. The big question is will this rate cut really help revive Economic Growth . That is a big question because if you look at the previous rate cuts, the indian Banking Industry has not been passing them on to consumers and businesses. The reason for that is that the Banking Industry has been struggling due to higher levels of non performing assets. So the banks do cut interest rates, that will affect their profitability in this environment. So that has really been the big tussle. Despite these consecutive rate cuts. The other issueis consecutive rate cuts. The other issue is that consumer demand needs to revive, which has been struggling, and that really is really, really key if indias economy is to turn it up in the months to come.
