The article highlights the potential impact of the US's trade tariffs on the global pork trade, focusing on the responses from Mexico and China. Although US President Trump has delayed imposing tariffs on Mexico until April 2, there is the possibility of retaliatory tariffs from Mexico affecting the significant pork trade between the two countries, with the US exporting around 1.155 billion tons of pork to Mexico last year. In contrast, China's 10% to 20% tariffs on US pork imports have led to an additional 47% tariff rate, making US pork exports uncompetitive compared to those from the EU, which face a lower 12% tariff. This situation is likely to shift more pork and by-product exports towards Brazil and the EU, including countries like Spain and the Netherlands, as predicted by Rabobank experts.
