C AgTC: Another Day, China Announces Another Threat to US Ag Exports

[ April 5, 2018   //   Gary G Burrows ]

China has announced another list of US exports that will be subject to China import tariffs, if the US goes forward with the proposed punitive tariffs on China’s exports.

The full list contains 106 items, many of which are US agriculture exports, including beef, soybeans, corn, wheat, orange juice, tobacco, and cranberries.

Officials at the Agriculture Transportation Coalition state: “This shaping up to be a tumultuous year for ag shippers already buffeted by the trucking crises, ocean carrier consolidation and more.”
