China's commerce ministry on Saturday described as "preliminary" the tariff, agricultural and aircraft deals agreed during this week's visit by U.S. President Donald Trump.

Trump left Beijing on Friday after two days of talks that featured pageantry but limited concrete outcomes.

In a statement, the ministry said the two sides had agreed to establish investment and trade boards to negotiate reciprocal tariff reductions and broader cuts on agricultural products.

"The U.S. side will actively promote resolving China's concerns regarding dairy and aquatic products, bonsai exports, and avian influenza," the ministry said.

"The Chinese side will also promote resolving U.S. concerns about beef and poultry exports," it added.

The ministry confirmed arrangements on Chinese purchases of U.S. aircraft and engine supplies, saying details are still being discussed and will be "finalised as soon as possible."
