China’s Tariffs on U.S. Agricultural Products Take Effect
Published On Mar 10, 2025, 12:53 AM
China has imposed tariffs on various U.S. agricultural products in retaliation to increased U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports. The tariffs include a 15% levy on items like chicken, wheat, and corn, as well as 10% on soybeans, pork, beef, and fruit. This escalation of the trade conflict follows recent tariff increases by President Trump and has raised concerns over the disruption of global supply chains. Additionally, China is restricting certain U.S. companies from accessing its market altogether.
