Policy analysts, market watchers and especially farmers were caught off guard by President Donald Trump's tweet this week that he will impose new 10% tariffs on $300 billion worth of Chinese goods. The announcement was a strong signal that farmers need to be prepared for the long haul in the China trade war, according to Pro Farmer policy analyst Jim Wiesemeyer.  

This week's DC Signal to Noise Podcast looks at the financial and political implications of the new China tariffs, the changing of the ag guard in Congress, and a renewed push against waivers from the Renewable Fuels Standard for refiners.

Wiesemeyer is joined by Farm Journal news director John Herath and AgWeb policy writer Anna-Lisa Laca.
