The United States imports thousands of tons of sugar each year from Brazil. If the US placed a quota on importing sugar from Brazil, it would be __________.

Answer 1

Answer:

C). Limiting the amount of Brazilian sugar that can be imported.

Explanation:

The imports are restricted for several reasons and the most common reason is to encourage the sale of domestic products and promote domestic trade to boost the local producers instead of heavily relying on imports. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
