News Topical, Digital Desk : US President Donald Trump has taken a significant step regarding his tariff policy. He has removed tariffs on approximately 200 food, agricultural, and farm products. This decision is likely to provide significant relief to Indian farmers.
Indian agricultural exporters have benefited from US President Donald Trump's exemption of dozens of food items from a reciprocal tariff arrangement. Some analysts say this could help revive lost demand.
What will be the impact of Trump's decision?
Indian exporters of tea, coffee, spices and cashews were hit harder when Trump doubled the tariffs on imports of some Indian goods to 50%, unlike the 15-20% tariffs imposed on EU and Vietnamese suppliers.
Meanwhile, Ajay Sahai, Director General of the Federation of Indian Export Organisations (FIEO), said the tariff exemption would benefit exports worth between $2.5 billion and $3 billion.
12 percent decrease in exports
Let us tell you that government officials believe that this step of Trump is a positive sign for the trade talks between India and America.
According to a report, Trump's tariffs caused Indian exports to the United States to decline by approximately 12 percent in September 2025. Indian agricultural exports to the United States totaled $5.7 billion in 2024. Trump's tariffs significantly impacted the economy.
