Abstract

Agricultural output in the Far East gained again in 1969 and stood above the trend value. Good increases occurred in South Asia, Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, and the Philippines. Serious drought in Australia brought a sharp decline in wheat production, but output of livestock products did well. Except for Indonesia, most rice importing countries of the region had good harvests and will not need to expand imports in 1970. The region imported less wheat and rice but somewhat more com and sorghum in 1969. U.S. agricultural exports to the Far East dropped in 1969, mainly because wheat shipments to India and Pakistan under P.L. 480 were reduced.
