A recent development sees the UK, EU, and US reaching a temporary agreement to suspend the higher tariffs imposed since October 2019 due to the AirBus-Boeing dispute. These tariffs, set at 25%, affected a broad spectrum of agricultural and non-agricultural goods, significantly impacting the UK's agricultural sector by increasing the cost of pork and dairy exports to the US. The suspension of these tariffs comes as a relief to the UK, which experienced a decline in cheese and pork exports to the US in 2020, with cheese exports falling by 30% and pork exports dropping by 60% compared to the pre-tariff periods. This agreement is anticipated to help stabilize the export markets for these products.

In addition, 230 tonnes of butter were exported in 2018, but they had been increasing through 2019. For pork, the US reported receiving about 11,200 tonnes of frozen product from ...
