President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping discussed increasing China's agricultural imports, including beef and soybeans, during their meeting in Beijing. However, the status of beef export registrations remains unclear, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent stated that existing soybean purchase commitments mean 'beans are really all taken care of.'

President Trump is expected to sign executive orders to expand beef imports and grow the domestic cattle herd, addressing short-term supply issues in the U.S. beef market and supporting the renewal of America's domestic cattle herd, which is currently at a multi-decade low.
