Photo taken on May 2, 2018 shows cattle raised by farmer Bill Pellett at his farm in Atlantic of Iowa, the United States. Bill Pellett is now feeding around 900 heads of cattle on his farm while growing hundreds of acres of corn and soybeans in the Midwestern state. A trip to China in February has boosted his confidence in selling more of his farm's prime beef to Chinese customers. During his one-week stay in China, Pellett met with representatives from seven to 10 different companies that have plans for importing American beef. Aware of fellow farmers' concerns over the current U.S.-China trade tension, Pellett said he is optimistic about the prospect. (Xinhua/Wang Ying)
