13. China's exit piles on to a devastating 2019 for farmers, who've struggled through record flooding and droughts that destroyed crop yields, and trade war escalations that have lowered prices and profits this year.
**SUMMARY**
Before hostilities escalated in 2017, the U.S. was China's top agricultural supplier for 18 years running, relying on the nation for almost 20% of its farm goods imports amounting to $24 billion a year.And that's where China has been exposed by the trade war.
**Imports from the U.S. tumbled 45% in 2018** as the two countries hit each other with tariffs. Beijing slapped retaliatory levies ranging from 5% to 60% on almost all American farm goods including soybeans, pork and corn. The duties **gave Beijing crucial leverage over Washington, prompting Trump to announce a $28 billion bailout for farmers faced with a devastating loss in business. But they also forced China to search for supplies elsewhere.**

Perhaps people are freaking out about Russia sales, trade, etc. but the truth of the matter is that Russia is a 3rd world economy, it's literally too small to really make an impact on anything. The 11th largest.
