AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

US–China Summit: President Trump landed in Beijing for a high-stakes Xi meeting as Iran war fallout and Taiwan tensions hang over trade talks, with Trump pushing China to “open up” for US business and a possible US–China Board of Trade on the agenda. Big Tech on the Ground: Nvidia’s Jensen Huang, Tesla’s Elon Musk, and Apple’s Tim Cook are among the executives traveling with Trump, underscoring how AI chips and market access are now central to agri-food trade too. India Bullion Shock: India raised gold and silver import duties to 15% from 6% to protect the rupee and curb demand—an indirect hit to household spending that can ripple into broader food-and-input costs. China Food Supply Leap: China’s mobile “roaming” fish farm in Shandong delivered its first commercial Atlantic salmon catch, aiming to cut reliance on imports. ASEAN Aviation Reform: ASEAN says geopolitical uncertainty is forcing faster aviation reforms, including cargo liberalisation—key for faster agri exports.
