A&P Grain President Dave Altepeter said the steel used in their bins is made in the United States, but domestic steel prices also have soared because of the tariffs.

U.S. steel mills typically adjust their prices once a year, normally in the first quarter, Altepeter said. But this year, those prices have jumped four times, he said.

The price of steel used in A&P’s grain bins has jumped about 20 percent since January 1.

“Any time there’s any type of negative talk that affects the steel mill, they’ve raised the price,” said Altepeter.
