Trump Imposes Tariff Exemptions on Agricultural Products

The Trump administration decided to exempt some agricultural products from the 'reciprocal' tariffs imposed this year in response to practices considered unfair, after reviewing cases involving the United States' ability to produce them domestically. On Friday, U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order to reduce tariffs on imports such as beef, bananas, coffee, and tomatoes, while his administration faces pressure from voters suffering from the rising cost of living. The exemption from 'reciprocal' tariffs was implemented retroactively to be effective from November 13, according to the executive order issued by U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday, which excluded beef, tomatoes, coffee, and bananas from tariffs. Meanwhile, other tariffs will remain in effect.
