Farmers in Montana and other states along the U.S.-Canada border say they are struggling under the weight of President Trump's trade wars and the retaliatory tariffs that have followed, according to a report by NPR News.

The report describes grain growers in the region who say that geopolitical tensions between Washington and Ottawa have disrupted their businesses and, in their view, damaged what had long been a close relationship between neighboring agricultural communities.

According to NPR News, farmers quoted in the report characterized the situation as more than just an economic dispute, describing the fallout as a departure from what they consider a neighborly relationship with Canada.

The report ties the farmers' difficulties to broader trade tensions stemming from tariffs imposed under the Trump administration and the retaliatory measures Canada has taken in response.

NPR News did not provide further specific details in the excerpt regarding the scale of losses or the particular crops affected, but the farmers' accounts point to concerns about the practical effects of trade policy on cross-border agricultural commerce.
