Trump's deal with Japan won't make up for farmers' losses caused by president's trade wars, says expert

Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Donald Trump agreed a limited trade deal as he tries to win back support from farmers unhappy with his trade wars.

An international business expert has said that the trade deal Donald Trump struck with Japan that has been welcomed by the U.S. rural sector key to his re-election chances, is not enough to make up for the downturn farmers have endured under the president's trade wars.

After the Japanese deal, American Farm Bureau Federation president Zippy Duvall said his organization was"thankful the administration has reached this deal and we urge trade negotiators to achieve many more like it. "I think business would have preferred a larger agreement, so I think that is the bottom line. The other discussion is whether this is phase one of a comprehensive deal and if there will be a follow-on discussion."
