# Canada-China trade deal: What it means for farmers | The Western Producer

> A Western Producer analysis explains the preliminary Canada-China trade agreement from January and its March 1 tariff changes. Canola seed tariffs fall to about 15% from about 84%, and canola meal tariffs of 100% are removed until at least year-end. Peas also gain relief, while some other products remain tariffed.

## Why it matters

The explainer confirms that canola meal, which faced a 100% tariff, can flow to China again for the coming marketing year. That supports Canadian meal export demand and firms the price outlook, though the meal relief is temporary.
