Yeah, basically every country including US subsidizes its agriculture commodities which actually make up a rather small portion of trade.

A country having specific tariffs to protect domestic sectors is bad to you?

This is a far cry from a blanket 25% tariff.

Because northern climates need tariffs in order to maintain food security.
