That's a sign that the Argentinian economy is going through a period of weakness. There are two things (at least) that you aren't understanding: 1. A sale of 7 billion in exports to China is not the same as the 20 billion swap deal. If you don't sell the exports, you still get the money; you don't burn the crop. Maybe you 90% or 85%, but it is not nothing. (If you don't sell it you may store it, which ends up netting roughly that amount). But reality is there is a ready world market for Soybean and the market price is based on all information available to everyone around the world. Soybean is as fungible as shares of stock. 2. A $20 Billion loan to Millie's government helps to stabilize the Peso and [hopefully] keep Millie in office as long as possible because he is a friendly. Bottom line is Trump doesn't give a shit where the soybean goes; it has nothing to do with his deal to prop up Milie. The soybean can be sold to anyone, and it can be bought from anyone. Price is a market, just like the prices for oil and currency. Two different, unelated topics.
