Farmers still love Trump as president hits highest approval rate ever in ag poll - www.marketwatch.com

Excerpts from article:

...America's farmers remain solidly in President Trump's corner, a new poll from the Farm Journal shows, with 83% of those in the agriculture business expressing approval of his job performance.

...That is the highest the president's approval has reached in that poll.

...The Farm Journal Pulse poll, taken ahead of the president's scheduled Sunday speech to the American Farm Bureau Federation annual convention in Austin, Texas, found 64% of the 1,286 respondents saying they strongly approve of the job Trump is doing and another 19% expressing they somewhat approve.

...The affirmation from farmers comes after two major trade developments last week, with the U.S. and China signing a "Phase 1" trade agreement and the Senate ratifying and sending to the president for his signature the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement that replaces the 26-year old North American Free Trade Agreement that Trump had vilified on the campaign trail.

..."They hit 'paydirt' with our incredible new Trade Deals: CHINA, JAPAN, MEXICO, CANADA, SOUTH KOREA, and many others!" the president tweeted Sunday, mentioning U.S. trade agreements with two additional Asian countries.
