Abstract: Agricultural output in Western Europe remained at a high level in 1969. Wheat and milk surpluses continued to mount. Agricultural imports are tending to stabilize while agricultural exports increase. Imports of feed grains may decrease further in 1970. Monetary instability in the European Community in 1969 led to emergency trade measures which set back its Common Agricultural Policy. Negotiations aimed at expanding EC membership are expected in 1970.
