exporter

While it's possible that an exporter in a foreign country compensates the importer for these taxes — such as via rebates or lower prices — there's no requirement to do so.

And in the past decade, the United States has become the world’s top exporter of the crop, besting both Iran and Turkey.

Even businesses that are not exporters themselves could be affected.

India, for example, is a major agricultural producer and the world's largest exporter of rice.

Alternatively, it is possible that foreign exporters might have to lower their wholesale prices by the value of the tariff in order to retain their US customers.
