US President Donald Trump says his sweeping tariffs on most of the world will create jobs in the US, boost the American economy and bolster Washington's tax revenues.
But some experts have warned that they could also push exporters towards other countries like China and risk raising prices for American shoppers.
Agricultural brokers have told the BBC that they have seen a surge in interest in trade with China from exporters around the world.
Brazil, which is the world's biggest producer of coffee, has been slapped with a 50% US import tax.
It is one of the highest tariffs imposed by Washington and risks making the world's biggest economy less attractive for Brazilian exporters.
