Greetings from Trump's America: Wood County, Wisconsin, where cranberry growers have much to lose in a Trump trade war



Wisconsin cranberries on European Union target list for retaliation tariffs.  (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 3/8/2018)
The U.S. ships more than 95 million pounds of cranberries a year to countries in the European Union. 
Nearly 40% of the crop is exported, and in some years, Wisconsin has accounted for more than half the world's supply of cranberries. 
For cranberry growers, the threat of tariffs in the EU's 28 countries comes at an especially bad time, with growers awash in too much fruit and low prices.
