The announcement of tariffs by the President of the United States is gaining reactions from the agriculture community. While the proposed tariffs include a baseline 10% tariff for all countries, others will see additional reciprocal tariffs. In an interview on Fox Business, the US Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins explained what agricultural producers could expect. Ethan Lane, Senior VP of Government affairs explained. “For too long, America’s family farmers and ranchers have been mistreated by certain trading partners around the world. President Trump is taking action to address numerous trade barriers that prevent consumers overseas from enjoying high-quality, wholesome American beef. NCBA will continue engaging with the White House to ensure fair treatment for America’s cattle producers around the world and optimize opportunities for exports abroad.”
