Soon after Russian President Putin’s visit, former US President Donald Trump has once again hinted at imposing new tariffs on India – this time targeting India’s rice export. Trump says that many countries including India are dumping cheap rice in America, causing huge losses to American farmers. He has indicated that the US administration is considering new tariffs on Agri Products, which may mainly include Fertilizer from Canada and Rice from India. Meanwhile, America has also announced a bail out package of 12 billion dollars for its farmers. The direct impact of this news was visible on Indian Rice Stocks—Shares like LT Foods, GRM Overseas and Sarveshwar Foods fell by 7%. Especially LT Foods, whose 46% revenue comes from the US market, and its Golden Star in the US is America’s No.1 Jasmine Rice Brand. India is the world’s largest rice producer, with a production capacity of 150 million tonnes and a share of 30.3% in global exports. India exported 234,000 tonnes of rice to the US in FY24, worth ₹2,849 crore. The news of this possible tariff is coming at a time when talks on Trade Agreements between India and US are already stuck. Agri products remain the biggest bottleneck between the two countries. New tariffs could make trade talks even more complicated.

India’s exports have performed brilliantly despite challenges like Trump Tariffs. According to SBI Research report, India’s total exports from April to September in FY 26 reached $220 billion, 2.9% higher than the same period last year. The most important thing was that India’s exports to America increased by 13% to 45 billion dollars, although in September 2025, there was a decline of 12% in the shipments sent to America on an annual basis. America’s share in marine products and precious stones has also declined. For example, the US share in marine products declined from 20% to 15%, and in precious stones from 37% to 6%. At the same time, exports are also gradually diversifying. The share of Indian products has increased in countries like UAE, China, Vietnam, Japan, Hong Kong, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Nigeria. Additionally, the government has approved assistance of Rs 45,060 crore, which includes a credit guarantee of Rs 20,000 crore, which will further boost exports.

Donald Trump’s announcement of imposing 100% tariff on China has created a huge stir in the global market. The ban on export of Rare Earth Minerals has dealt a major blow to the electronics and crypto mining industry. This has had a direct impact on the Cryptocurrency Market.

The world’s two largest economies – America and China, are once again ready to clash in a Tariff War. Donald Trump has announced to impose a new tariff of up to 100% on goods coming from China, which will come into effect from November 1. With the already imposed 30% tax, the total tariff will reach 130%. This step has been taken in response to new restrictions on the export of Rare Earth Minerals by China. China has recently increased control over 5 more minerals like holmium, erbium, thulium, europium and ytterbium. Now China has control over 12 out of 17 Rare Earth Elements. These minerals are used in important sectors like EVs, Mobiles, Satellite, Defense Technology. China not only controls 70% of the global supply but also 90% of the processing. This can have a major impact on the industrial supply chain and national security of America and its allied countries. Is this the beginning of a new trade war? Time will tell…
