Abstract: Excerpts from the report: U.S. agricultural exports advanced to a record $6.3 billion in calendar year 1964 from the previous calendar year record of $5.6 billion in 1963. A substantial part of the 14 percent gain was brought about by record exports of wheat, soybeans, protein meal, rice, corn, inedible tallow, and hides and skins. Advances occurred also for such products as vegetable oils, cotton, lard, meats, and dairy products. Small declines occurred for rye, vegetables, and tobacco. Commercial sales for dollars, amounting to about three-fourths of the total, accounted for nearly all of the gain. Exports for dollars totaled an estimated $4.6 billion in 1964 compared with $4.0 billion in 1963. Exports under Government-financed programs totaled an estimated $1.7 billion, slightly above the level of a year earlier.
