70% of Taiwanese Mackerel Exports to the U.S. Hit by 20% Tariff Reducing Fishermen's Profits
According to a recent report, 70% of mackerel harvested in Taiwan is exported to the United States. However, the fishermen face a 20% tariff that significantly impacts their profits. Fishermen claim that this tariff policy diminishes their competitiveness and threatens their livelihoods.
They stress the urgent need to find alternative markets as market conditions change. Furthermore, some fishing organizations are actively seeking support from the government to alleviate this challenging situation.
