In the US soybean prices aren't rising. They're falling.

In fact, it wasn't long since the entire Left was wetting themselves about demand how tariffs would drive prices higher. Of course, what really happens is far more complicated: Brazilian soybeans also drop in price, but they don't have tariffs. Demand (and substitution, as you described) need not occur because there is still the same amount of soybean out there. Farmers are complaining because they feel THEY are taking the hit, not China. And in fact, they are taking one for the team until the markets adjust for it.

In fact, these specific tariffs will cost the US money overall. But the picture is much bigger and that is the game that is being played. (Not because of supply/demand dynamics, but because we will end up bailing out the growers).

However, this is as planned and servers a greater purpose that is higher up the economic ladder.
