Abstract

Excerpts from the report: U.S. agricultural exports totaled $6,229 million in calendar year 1965, down 2 percent from the record $6,348 million in 1964. Commercial sales for dollars rose to an alltime high of $4,777 million, nearly $200 million above the year earlier record. Exports of feed grains and oilseeds and products accounted for most of the gain. Each of these commodity groups totaled more than $1 billion in 1965. Exports of rice and fruits and preparations rose substantially from a year earlier. Partially offsetting decreases occurred in exports of wheat, cotton, tobacco, dairy products, and animals and products (except dairy). Shipments under Government-financed programs, principally under P.L. 480 -- the Trade Assistance and Development Act of 1954, as amended -- fell 18 percent from the 1964 total, to $1,452 million. Exports under Government-financed programs made up only 23 percent of total exports -- the smallest proportion since the beginning of the P.L 480 programs in 1954.
