Deere trims earnings forecast on trade war woes via SABCNewsOnline

On Friday, the company said it was reviewing its cost structure and initiating a series of measures to remain profitable.

Deere’s shares were down 2% in premarket trade. China is one of the biggest export markets for US farmers. US shipments to China of soybeans, the country’s most valuable farm export, sank to a 16-year low last year as Beijing mostly shifted purchases to Brazil, leaving American farmers with surplus. Sales in the region were earlier projected to be flat to up 5% earlier. In response to weak equipment demand, in May, Deere had announced a 20% production cut at its factories in Illinois and Iowa.
