The White House announced that tariffs on agricultural equipment, including combines and harvesters, are being reduced from 25% to 15%.

President Trump lowered the tariffs on imported farm equipment to 15% from 25% through the end of 2027, citing the role of tractors and crop harvesters in providing food for the country. Trump also added residential heating and air-conditioning components and material-handling equipment to the list of products now eligible for the lower 15% tariff rate.
