Was tariff low or high during the Great Depression?

During the Great Depression, tariffs were generally high, particularly after the enactment of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act in 1930, which raised duties on hundreds of imported goods. This move aimed to protect American industries but ultimately led to retaliatory tariffs from other countries, exacerbating the economic downturn. As a result, global trade declined significantly, contributing to the depth and duration of the depression.
