U.S. eyes high tariffs on Canadian fertilizer, subsidies for farmers

December 8, 2025

Donald Trump said he is considering “very severe” tariffs on imports of fertilizer from Canada, as the U.S. prepares a multibillion-dollar funding package for its own farmers, who have been battered by months of trade-war uncertainty.

The new White House focus on agriculture suggests the possibility of fresh trade turbulence, with little sign that the White House intends to depart from its pursuit of tariffs, whose revenue Mr. Trump said will be used to deliver US$11-billion in new money to row-crop farmers.
