The U.S. Chamber of Commerce says Iowa’s economy could see “extremely significant damage” from the current trade wars. That could include action against an estimated $1 billion in exports, a new study says.Retaliatory tariffs include $660 million from Canada, primarily on Iowa-made herbicides and metals; $140 million from China, on pork and soybeans; $126 million from Mexico, on pork; and $87 million from Europe, on metals and corn, the Corridor Business Journal reported.
