China is up to 20 cargoes of Argentine soybeans while we are busy bailing out Argentina. They think you are stupid.
@ottoscholl You’re off to a chipper start this morning. Good morning!
@agtradertalk My grader was 16 minutes late and I am waiting on one last truck before I can go home. Otherwise, I am in a great mood!
@ottoscholl Doesn't work that way. If USA refuse to help, exchange rate between dollar and local currency will go up a lot (toward dollar of course) which turn argentinian soy more competitive. The fact that China refuse to buy US soy is completely political.
@KerGlobal Agreed. Doesn’t mean we need to use our money to bail out Argentina. That is completely political as well.
@ottoscholl So in you opinion is the tariff vacation causing the selling or the US monetary support? Or is it a chicken and the egg deal?
@ckleene I think it is the tax, Argentina cash would kind of support that.
@ottoscholl @cacus It’s much more than 20 cargoes now. About 30-40. Thanks for helping the Arg goverment to cut taxes so we can sell more agressively.
@PopperVon @cacus Yep, the tweet was written Wednesday morning.
@ottoscholl Ben . Retenciones (export taxes ) aren’t a subsidy to producers . It’s money that government steals to us without any retribution. And this before all the taxes we pay. Maybe it’s difficult to you to understand, as you leave in a more normal country. You need better information
@ottoscholl Come on, you’re smarter than this. In what world do you make geopolitical decisions based solely on how it impacts farmers? We can all appreciate that tariffs are impacting your business personally but you gotta stop responding to every news headline with “orange man bad.”
@ottoscholl Sobate una quena Ben, nos tienen abandonados hace 200 años, y ahora se preocupan porque le vendemos 10 barcos de Soja a China? Tenemos una base militar China en la Patagonia, gracias a su abandono. A comerla.....
@ottoscholl You are wrong. If @potus would not help Argentina with US currency, she would have sold even more soya beans free of taxes, cause what Argentina needs nowaday it's green Big faces.
@ottoscholl This administration will send 7 billion to Argentina, a rather high risk bond if you ask me, who sells soybeans at no tariff to China, but if you just gave farmers about $1.50 per bu soybeans... that would be a no go and that 7 billion injects straight into US economy.
@ottoscholl @pabloduggan @robdnavarro este es un te toman por boludo version USA
@ottoscholl Argentina has stopped singing - Dont cry for me Argentina and changed their tune to - Dont Cry for me American Farmers LOL
@ottoscholl the government of Argentina would have increased the number of exports at a 0% tax rate, despite support from the United States.
@ottoscholl Omygosh Mickey Mouse is in charge
@ottoscholl @pabloduggan apoyando farmers yankees... Basura humana
@ottoscholl Take that number up 10 now
@ottoscholl They are not wrong!
@ottoscholl Yep.
@ottoscholl How much are the soybean exports taxed in the US? More or equal to Argentina? Can't compete? Eventually Argentina will have no export taxes, what will you do then?
@ottoscholl Wtf? Are you crazy? Government only removed extraordinary taxes of 26% for three days... that's not a price reduction... they only returned to the international price for 3 days... now producers receive 26% less again... don't lie to people..
@ottoscholl Think carefully: Who in the world can afford to buy 1 million tons of soybeans at once? What will happen if you offend China? American farmers are also innocent victims. You can organize a group to visit China and meet the Chinese government. I can make an introduction for you.
