Inflationary pushes also from barley and beer
Among those who are certainly most concerned about the duties Trump has announced are American barley producers
beer consumption in the US is slowly and steadily declining
in 2024 it reached its lowest level in 40 years
many Americans prefer other alcoholic beverages, particularly hard seltzers and canned cocktails
millennials (born 1981/1996) and Gen Z (born 1997/2012) then drink less alcohol than previous generations
messico🇲🇽 is the third largest importer of barley and the largest importer of American malt
canada🇨🇦 is the largest importer of American barley and has already implemented tariffs on 4 March in response to those decided by Trump
canada is also the leading exporter of fertilisers to the US
the prices of fertilisers imported fromCina🇨🇳 have already risen after Trump imposed tariffs on Canada as of 4 February
the aluminium used for cans also comes from Canada and is now subject to 25% tariffs imposed by the White House in recent weeks
