WASHINGTON—President Donald Trump on Oct. 11 praised the new partial agreement with China, saying “there’s never been a deal of this magnitude for the American farmer.”

Following two days of talks between top-level U.S. and Chinese trade officials in Washington last week, Trump announced that the United States reached a partial trade agreement “in principle” with China, on intellectual property, financial services, and agriculture.
