Global trade is undergoing a fundamental transformation. After decades of increasing globalization, countries are pivoting toward protectionist policies to safeguard domestic industries. In this episode, international agribusiness consultant Todd Thurman joins Damian Mason to explore the resurgence of tariffs and trade restrictions—and what this shift means for the future of global commerce. Topics include the demographic and economic forces driving deglobalization, historical context behind tariff use, and the implications for U.S. agriculture and international trade. Learn why trade wars may no longer be temporary disruptions, but instead a long-term feature of global economic policy.
