Strengthening agricultural cooperation between the United States and China is a win-win situation "- Interview with Su Jian, CEO of the American Soybean Export Association

In the field of agriculture, the needs of the United States and China complement each other, and cooperation between the two sides can achieve mutual benefit and win-win results, "Su Jian, CEO of the American Soybean Export Association, said in a recent interview with our reporter." The exchange of visits between the leaders of the two countries within six months indicates that both sides agree to continue dialogue

Su Jian stated that agricultural trade is one of the stabilizing factors in the bilateral relationship between the United States and China. The meeting between the two heads of state will help provide a predictable environment for both sides to carry out planning in the field of agriculture. What our farmers and customers desire most is predictability. If trade policies change without warning, neither party can efficiently conduct trade and cooperation

Strengthening agricultural cooperation between the United States and China is a win-win situation. Taking soybeans as an example, China is the world's largest importer of soybeans, and the United States is one of the few countries with sufficient planting area, yield level, quality, and logistics capabilities to meet such a large-scale demand, "said Su Jian.

The American Soybean Export Association has established a cooperative relationship with China for over 40 years. In Su Jian's view, this relationship can withstand many tests because it is built on mutual demand. "China needs reliable, abundant, and high-quality protein sources. American farmers see China as their largest market." Su Jian said that a stable bilateral relationship helps to enhance business confidence, and "a stable and predictable US China relationship helps to consolidate investment in the agricultural sector.

Su Jian said that the meeting between the US and Chinese heads of state will help establish a broader and more stable cooperative relationship between the two sides. He stated that both the United States and China hold important positions in global agricultural production, consumption, and trade. Strengthening coordination and cooperation between the two sides can reduce fluctuations in the global food supply chain and minimize the impact of rising food prices on fragile economies.

In the field of agricultural research, Su Jian believes that the United States and China also have broad cooperation opportunities. The results of cooperation can quickly generate cumulative effects, as technological advancements in increasing soybean production capacity help alleviate global supply pressures. He emphasized that in recent years, global soybean inventories have continued to tighten, and the tolerance space of the soybean supply system has narrowed. In such an environment, cooperation between the United States and China around increasing production capacity and ensuring smooth trade is an important means to maintain global food security, and can also alleviate the layer by layer transmission of local impacts on the global food supply chain

Most of Su Jian's career has been spent connecting with Chinese clients and American farms, and he has also led American farmers to visit Chinese enterprises multiple times. In his opinion, strengthening people to people exchanges between the United States and China is very necessary. The deep ties established between the American Soybean Export Association and China have stood the test of time. The insights and cooperation brought by people to people exchanges are the key to our common success, "Su Jian said, looking forward to further strengthening trade delegation exchanges between the two countries and promoting two-way scientific research and student exchanges.
