Well, trade continues to grab a bunch of headlines. Today, it's more chatter on NAFTA being 'close' to finished with Mexico; Canada requesting to sign off on any US/Mexico agreements, and the $16 Billion dollars of tariffs and countertariffs went in to place between the US and China.We also had the chance to catch up with Ted Seifried who has been traveling along the Western Leg of the Pro Farmer Midwest Crop Tour, and he fills us in on what he's noticed in the field.

It's Friday! Sadly, for our row crop producers, it's also WASDE day, and USDA dropped some bombshells on the grain markets, with soybeans hardest hit. We'll run through the numbers and take a look at today's closes. Also, lots of noise about trade to end the week, but very little progress with either Japan or Mexico, so we'll wait another week to see if anything gets moving. And finally, we get the chance to dive in to the world of FDA regulations! Last week, FDA administrator Dr. Scott Gottlieb, commissioner of the FDA, said he will begin to change the way FDA regulates those who use the word 'milk' in describing their beverages. R.J. Lehmann from the R Street Institute joins Mike and Delaney to wade through the current definitions and what this change might look like.
