Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on Tuesday said Mexico will take action if an agreement with Washington regarding new tariffs is not reached by the August 1 deadline set by her U.S. counterpart Donald Trump.

The U.S. just ended a decades-old tomato trade agreement with Mexico, and while prices could soon spike at grocery stores and restaurants across the country, one Stanislaus County farmer says not so fast.

Businesses typically pass tariff costs onto consumers through higher prices. Sometimes, that process is less subtle.

In the wake of new tariffs, the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce announced Monday that its senior leadership met with U.S. Ambassador to Mexico Ronald Johnson and emphasized the importance of a stable trade relationship between Mexico and the United States.

The U.S. government said Monday it is placing a 17% duty on most fresh Mexican tomatoes, after negotiations over alleged unfair trade practices ended without an agreement to avert the tariff.

If a 30 percent tariff on Mexico goes into affect on August 1, a wide variety of foods will be more expensive, experts warn.

"It’s all going to be the same for everyone," the president told reporters of the U.S. duty those countries will face.

President Donald Trump says he plans to place tariffs of over 10% on smaller countries, including nations in Africa and the Caribbean
