[American Farmers Dissatisfied with the "Swing" in Republican Strongholds] The vast agricultural regions of the United States have long been considered the Republican Party's electoral base and a crucial voter base for President Trump's two elections. However, with the November 3rd midterm elections approaching, polls show that Republican candidates are facing a precarious situation in several agricultural states where they have historically held an advantage. Analysts believe that the current administration's military action against Iran, which has driven up energy and fertilizer prices, and its tariff policies, which directly impact agricultural exports, have harmed the interests of American farmers, thus affecting the Republican Party's electoral prospects. Affected by multiple negative factors, data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture shows that net agricultural income in the United States this year is expected to decline by 2.6% compared to 2025; if inflation is taken into account, the decline will reach 5.5%.
