British farmers claim they've been sacrificed to secure cheaper auto exports under the new trade deal, while the motor industry celebrates tariff relief. National Farmers’ Union president Tom Bradshaw accused the government of using agriculture as a bargaining chip, warning the sector has "nothing left to give" after concessions on US ethanol levies and beef quotas.

The deal delays duty-free UK beef exports to the US until 2025 within an already-claimed 13,000-tonne quota. Steel tariffs face similar uncertainty, with Welsh producers confronting a potential 25% duty after a temporary reprieve expires in July.
