 High Level Dollar Exports Boost Total Exports of U. S. Farm Products for Second Consecutive Fiscal YearEleanor N. DeBlois No 319888, Miscellaneous Publications from United States Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service Abstract: Excerpts from the report: U.S. agricultural exports reached a fiscal year total of $6,096 million in 1964-65, slightly above the previous record of $6,067 million a year earlier. The 1964-65 record was achieved despite stronger competition from foreign exporters and a weakening of demand for some major commodities. Dollar sales amounted to $4,426 million in 1964-65, only 1 percent below the record amount a year earlier. Commercial exports of oilseeds and products, feed grains, and animals and products, including dairy products, set fiscal year records. Substantial declines took place in dollar exports of wheat, cotton, and tobacco. Exports under Government-financed programs totaled $1,670 million, 5 percent higher than in 1963-64. The greatest increase was in long-term supply and dollar credit sales under Title IV, which were over 3 times the year earlier total. Title I sales for foreign currency increased moderately and made up two-thirds of program shipments.
