Everyone hears “China” and thinks soybeans.

But the White House says the new $17B/year ag commitment is in addition to the October soybean commitments.

So where does the extra $17B go?

My guess:

* Corn/feed grains
* Sorghum
* DDGs/ethanol
* Beef/poultry/pork
* Cotton
* Wheat
* Specialty ag products

If soybeans are already spoken for, corn may be the sleeper market nobody is talking about enough.
