President Trump has been announced as the headliner for the Farm Bureau convention and it is thought that he will likely use it to tout what will be the newly signed trade deal with China.

According to The Hill:

President Trump is slated to address the American Farm Bureau Federation on Sunday, when he will likely highlight a newly signed limited trade agreement with China in an effort to boost his support among the group.

The organization announced Monday that Trump will headline its annual convention in Austin, Texas, marking the third consecutive year the president has spoken at the event.

“We are grateful that he has made agricultural issues a priority and look forward to welcoming him to Austin at a time when there is much to talk about, from trade progress to important regulatory reforms,” Farm Bureau President Zippy Duvall said in a statement.

Trump will make the trip to Austin on the back end of a weekend trip to his Mar-a-Lago property in Florida, where he is scheduled to hold a fundraiser.

President Trump has always worked to make sure he has the support of farmers especially during his trade war with China.
