คำอธิบาย
One of the main reasons for the introduction of tariffs and quotas is to support local industries and discourage imports. When goods are imported at a high cost, they would be exchanged for high prices as well. With this, local industries can easily sell locally produced goods are cheaper rates thereby increasing the market and demand for it.
