Hello and welcome to World Business Report from the BBC World Service.
My name's Ed Butler.
On today's edition, as Donald Trump and China extend their trade truce,
today we're going to be zooming in on one issue that could signify a great deal about the wider balance of power between these two economic rivals.
It's soybeans.
Yep, that's right.
More in a moment.
Also in the show, why after years of silence,
the US could be preparing to recognise Somaliland as an independent nation.
And in South Korea, a new problem for coffee shops.
Customers who want to call the cafe the office.
There's been pictures on social media of people bringing their whole kit,
not just laptops, but entire desktops and printers.
More strange things that people are bringing into their local coffee shops later in the show.
Now, Donald Trump has extended a trade truce with China for another 90 days.
This comes just hours before a Tuesday deadline to intensify the current tariff rates that he had been imposing on the world's biggest exporter.
The US president's move was widely expected, it has to be said,
because his government has been reluctant to reignite the fierce trade conflict with Beijing that has rattled markets
since April.
President Trump said in an executive order that he signed on Monday that the US continues to have discussions with the People's Republic of China to address the lack of trade reciprocity in our economic relationship and our resulting national and economic security concerns.
