China will target goods such as liquefied natural gas, produced in states loyal to the US president.
However, in a tweet, Mr Trump warned Beijing against seeking to influence the upcoming US midterm elections.
"There
will be great and fast economic retaliation against China if our
farmers, ranchers and/or industrial workers are targeted!" he said.

Earlier
he had suggested that this would mean further US tariffs on another
$267bn worth of Chinese products. Such a move would mean roughly all of
China's exports to the US would be subject to new duties.
The Chinese
commerce ministry said it would impose its tariffs from 24 September -
the date the US duties come into effect - but at lower rates than
previously expected.
It will place an additional 5% in duty on US
products including smaller aircraft, computers and textiles, and an
extra 10% on goods such as chemicals, meat, wheat and wine.
By contrast, the US duties will apply to almost 6,000 items, making them the biggest round of trade tariffs yet from Washington.
They will affect handbags, rice and textiles, although some items such as smart watches and high chairs have been exempted.
They will start at 10% and increase to 25% from the start of next year unless the two countries agree a deal.

On Monday Mr Trump said the latest round of tariffs was in response to China's "unfair trade practices".
"We
have been very clear about the type of changes that need to be made,
and we have given China every opportunity to treat us more fairly. But,
so far, China has been unwilling to change its practices," he said.
Hasn't the US already imposed tariffs on China?
Yes. In fact, the latest round of US duties marks the third set of tariffs put into motion so far this year.
