Impact of tariffs on agri-food imports in the U.S. - statistics & facts
The Trump administration’s decision to impose tariffs on imports of goods from other countries in 2025 could lead to higher prices for consumers, a scenario many Americans anticipate happening. Initially, tariffs were applied to steel and aluminum imports, but they have now been extended to also encompass food and agricultural goods. This will significantly impact the market, as the U.S. imported over 200 billion U.S. dollars worth of agricultural products globally in 2024. The leading exporting countries most affected by these tariffs include Mexico, Canada, and the European Union.
