US President Donald Trump on Friday signed an executive order rolling back part of the tariffs he had imposed on food imports from abroad.
The White House released a list of the affected products, which include coffee, tea, bananas, tomatoes, beef, cocoa, spices, tropical fruits and fruit juices. Certain fertilizers are also listed.
Trump has been under political pressure over high food prices in the United States, with rising beef prices in particular in focus.According to data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the price of ground beef has continued to climb every month since the start of the year.
