Trump Threatens Tariffs on Indian Rice, Canadian Fertilizer Citing Dumping

  • Donald Trump signaled potential new tariffs on Indian rice and Canadian fertilizer.
  • The tariffs aim to address "dumping" of foreign rice and bolster American farmers, who also received a $12 billion support package.
  • Trump questioned India's trade practices regarding rice, asking why they are "allowed to do that" and instructing his team to review.
  • New duties on Canadian fertilizer are also being considered to encourage domestic manufacturing and reduce import dependency.
  • These potential tariffs highlight growing frustration and lack of progress in ongoing trade discussions with India and Canada.
