U.S. soybean exports to China have been zero for six consecutive months, setting a record in 30 years.

Foreign media: U.S. soybean exports to China have been zero for six consecutive months, setting a new record in the past 30 years.

According to the latest data from the U.S. Department of Commerce, China did not purchase any U.S. soybeans in October 2025, marking the first time in over two decades. October also marked the sixth consecutive month that China did not import U.S. soybeans, setting a record of at least 30 years.

Data from the U.S. Soybean Export Council shows that about 55% of U.S. soybeans are exported, with China once being the main market. However, since the trade war was initiated by Trump, U.S. soybean exports to China have dropped from frequently exceeding 50% over the past decade to 19% in October 2025.

Meanwhile, Brazil set a record for soybean exports to China in August 2025. The decline in U.S. soybean exports to China reflects profound changes in Sino-U.S. trade relations and has prompted the United States to seek new markets, such as Egypt and Mexico, to fill the gap left by China's market share.
