Incoming President Donald Trump wants to enact protectionist trade policies to boost U.S. industries. It could be a destabilizing factor for Kansas agriculture.

The article from KCUR discusses the uncertainty faced by Kansas farmers due to former President Donald Trump's proposed tariffs if he were to return to office. Trump has suggested implementing a 10% tariff on all imports, which could significantly impact agricultural trade. Kansas farmers, who rely heavily on exports, are concerned about potential retaliatory tariffs from other countries, which could reduce their market access and profitability. The article highlights the experiences of local farmers like Kent Winter, who have already felt the effects of previous trade wars, and mentions the broader economic implications for rural communities. It also notes the lack of clear policy details from Trump, leaving farmers in a state of uncertainty about future trade relations and their livelihoods.
