“…Florida is the second largest supplier of fresh tomatoes to the United States market, and together with California, represent close to 70 percent of fresh tomatoes produced in the United States. 65 Even though imports from Mexico have been gradually increasing since the passage of NAFTA and the attendant lowering of trade barriers, domestic production still accounted for 40 percent of domestic consumption in 2015. 66 Buyers increasingly favor purchasing tomatoes from Florida growers through contractual arrangements rather than on the open market, which increases the control that buyers can exercise.…”

The high concentration of China’s barley import sources determines that China’s barley import trade is vulnerable to the impact of tariff policy adjustment. In particular, in 2020, China implemented anti-dumping and anti-subsidy policies against Australia, the largest source of barley imports. Therefore, whether China’s barley import trade will face import risks due to the adjustment of tariff policy has become a question worth discussing. Based on the above background, this study uses the partial equilibrium model to explore the impact of China’s adjustment of tariff policy on imported barley from Australia on China’s barley industry under the changing trade relations between China and Australia. Through analyzing the feasibility of developing domestic barley industry and expanding barley import sources, further explore strategies to deal with barley import trade risks. The results show that: Under the three import tariff adjustment simulations, the total import volume of China’s barley shows a downward trend, and the import price increases to varying degrees. However, the relatively small increase in domestic production suggests that the domestic barley market is less able to cope with the risk of a sharp drop in imports. At the same time, affected by the adjustment of tariff policy, some Chinese consumer demand is difficult to satisfy. China can deal with trade risks by implementing an import diversification strategy.

“…As for the specific countries implementing trade protection, it is generally believed that the United States regulates imports through tariff and non-tariff means to protect domestic industries at a comparative disadvantage. The existing literature studies the import restrictions of American agricultural products from multiple perspectives [2,3,4]. If the protection of primary products in the United States is true, then the trade policy of the United States is protectionism, but the differences in the import and export policies are left to be analyzed and explained.…”

This study empirically analyzed the U.S. trade patterns of primary products. We used the H-index weighting to measure the degree of the U.S. trade policies in exports and imports. We find the U.S. has considerably encouraged the imports, and has slightly promoted the exports of primary products. We conclude that the agricultural subsidies, which help the U.S. economic growth and resource saving, are the major determinant for the export patterns of the U.S. primary products.
