NASHVILLE, TENN. (RFD NEWS) — The Trump Administration is lowering tariffs on imported agricultural equipment in an effort to reduce costs for farmers and manufacturers.
President Trump signed a proclamation cutting tariffs on combines, harvesters, and certain other farm equipment from 25 percent down to 15 percent.
The White House says the move is designed to ease cost pressures on producers facing higher expenses for fuel, fertilizer, and machinery while also encouraging additional investment in U.S. manufacturing.
The tariff adjustments will remain in place through Dec. 31, 2027.
