Lack of clarity on how the Trump administration will address much-needed incentives for crop-based fuels in the next few years has added to concerns.

Archer-Daniels-Midland’s earnings shrunk to the lowest level since the pandemic as a difficult crop trading market is complicated by mounting trade and biofuel policy uncertainty.

Farmers are still delaying equipment purchases a President Donald Trump’s tariffs cloud demand for crops and risk further extending a yearslong slump in the sector.

Archer-Daniels-Midland Co. is cutting jobs at its global commodity desk after a probe into its accounting practices wiped out billions from the agriculture giant’s value, according to sources.

USDA will release nearly $260 million in new funds among a pot of $537 million in biofuel grants for 543 ethanol and biodiesel projects in 29 states.

ADM plans to slash CEO Juan Luciano’s annual cash bonus and laid out a new policy to claw back long-term awards in a bid to “ensure accountability” more than a year after an accounting scandal.

China’s government has renewed export registrations for some U.S. meat plants whose eligibility was set to lapse, raising hopes that shipments won’t be disrupted.

“Mexico could put their own import tariffs on — that could reduce the U.S. freight advantage. It’s a matter of how fierce the trade war gets,” said Pat Boova.

China responded to new U.S. tariffs by announcing March 4 it will impose additional tariffs of up to 15% on imports of key U.S. farm products, including chicken, pork, soy and beef.

The president did not clarify if this plan is part of a previously announced effort to enact so-called “reciprocal” tariffs on nearly all U.S. trading partners.
