Trade barriers can include thing like tariffs (a tax on imports) and quotas (a limit on the amount of imports).
Countries often erect trade barriers in order to protect their own industries from cheap imports from abroad. Manufacturing industries may not be able to compete with cheap imports from China for example. They also in turn help to protect jobs in the country in question.
However, barriers to trade are usually bad as other countries usually retaliate by introducing their own barriers, resulting in a decline in world trade.
