The levies primarily hit the agricultural sector, with 15% on wheat, corn and chicken and 10% on soybeans, pork, beef and fruit

China imposed retaliatory tariffs on US imports yesterday, targeting $22 billion worth of agricultural products.

The import tax on US products comes after President Trump imposed tariffs on Chinese imports twice.

In addition, China is also restricting business and product supply to 25 American companies, including a drone supplier to the US military. 

Illumina—the world leader in gene-sequencing machines—lowered its yearly forecast and cut spending by $100 million due to Beijing’s tariffs.

The move follows President Donald Trump’s decision to hike tariffs on products from China from 10% in February to 20% last week, affecting nearly $440 billion worth of Chinese goods.

The average US tariff on Chinese imports has surged from 3% during Trump’s first term to 39%.

Meanwhile, Canada plans to impose a 25% surcharge on electricity it sends to the US in response to Trump’s tariffs on Canadian goods. The move would affect Americans living in New York, Michigan, and Minnesota, reports the BBC.
