华盛顿6月24日路透电 — 据路透社审阅的白宫补充拨款申请文件，美国总统唐纳德·特朗普于周三要求国会批准超过110亿美元的额外农业援助，以帮助因伊朗战争面临高燃油和化肥成本的农民。
这笔新拨款将追加于政府今年已拨付给农民的120亿美元援助之上。当前美国农业行业因高生产成本和低作物价格陷入困境，而特朗普当前的贸易政策以及与伊朗的战争进一步加剧了困境。

农业行业团体此前曾表示，这笔资金对帮助农民为春季播种做好准备至关重要，但不足以让农民完全弥补损失。
今年春季，由于中东地区的航运中断，燃油和化肥价格大幅上涨，尽管华盛顿和德黑兰本月初敲定初步停火计划后，航运状况已有所改善。
农民是特朗普的忠实选民群体，其所在的共和党将在11月的中期选举中捍卫国会的微弱多数席位。
路透社/益普索的民调显示，特朗普在美国农村民众中的支持率在6月跌至50%的新低，较2025年2月的60%有所下滑。
根据白宫管理和预算办公室主任拉斯·沃伊特签署的拨款申请，新援助中的100亿美元将用于2026年种植的大田作物和特种作物农民。
剩余11亿美元将用于受2025年末至2026年初冬季风暴影响的佛罗里达州农民。
据美国农业部数据，如果白宫的拨款申请获得通过，政府今年预计将向农民发放约554亿美元的直接补贴。
农业经济咨询公司美里迪姆农业商务顾问合伙人韦斯利·戴维斯表示，这笔补贴将约占2026年农业总收入的33%，为2001年以来直接补贴占比最高的水平。

WASHINGTON, June 24 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday asked Congress to approve more than $11 billion in additional aid for farmers facing high fuel and fertilizer costs since the Iran war, according to a White House supplemental funding request reviewed by Reuters.
The new funding would add to $12 billion in aid the administration has already disbursed to farmers this year, as the industry sags under high production costs and low crop prices, made worse by Trump’s current trade policies and the war with Iran.

Farm and industry groups have said that money was key to helping farmers prepare for spring planting, but insufficient to make them whole.
Fuel and fertilizer prices have jumped this spring due to shipping disruptions from the Middle East, though flows have improved since Washington and Tehran hashed out an initial plan earlier this month to end the conflict.
Farmers are a loyal voting bloc for Trump, whose Republican Party will defend slim majorities in Congress in November’s midterms.
Trump’s approval rating among rural Americans fell in June to a new low of 50%, down from 60% in February 2025, according to Reuters/Ipsos polling.
According to the funding request signed by Russ Vought, director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, $10 billion of the new aid would be allocated to row and specialty crop farmers for crops planted in 2026.
The remaining $1.1 billion would be allocated to Florida farmers affected by winter storms in late 2025 and early 2026.
If the White House request is approved, the administration would be forecast to send about $55.4 billion in direct payments to farmers this year, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data.
That would comprise roughly 33% of total farm income in 2026, the highest level in direct payments since 2001, according to Wesley Davis, a partner at Meridian Agribusiness Advisors, an agricultural economics consultancy.
