WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The Trump administration will unveil the details of its next round of trade-related aid to farmers before the end of this week, Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue said on Tuesday.

“We’ll have information for you before the weekends,” he told reporters when asked about the aid, which is intended to help farmers stung by the U.S. trade war with China.
