President Donald J. Trump declared a national emergency on June 29, 2026, to allow duty‑free importation of phosphate fertilizer from the Kingdom of Morocco. The proclamation cites disruptions in global fertilizer supply chains, including those from the United States’ largest foreign source, and the need to secure reliable supplies for U.S. farmers during planting and growing seasons. Under section 318 of the Tariff Act of 1930, the Secretary of the Treasury and the Secretary of Commerce are authorized to waive duties on Moroccan phosphate fertilizer for up to eight months or until the emergency ends. They must consult with each other and with the Secretary of Homeland Security, monitor the situation, report to Congress, and notify the President of any changes that may require further action.
