Record year for farm exports foreseen in 1996
US agriculture exports are set for a record 58 billion dollars for the year ending September 30, 1996, up from 54.1 billion in 1994-95. Imports are seen at 29 billion, aided by high world prices for grains, cotton, oilseeds and beef. Corn exports reach 50.3 million tons valued at 5.9 billion, with Japan, South Korea and Taiwan as top buyers.

NAFTA panel to review U.S. Canada trade dispute
A five member NAFTA panel to judge Canadian tariffs on U S milk products eggs chicken and barley was appointed the first under NAFTA since its 1994 start. The panel may issue a ruling by next summer with Elihu Lauterpacht as chairman and two Americans and two Canadians on the body. The Coalition for Fair Trade says U S producers lose about 300 million in chicken sales and one billion in dairy sales annually due to the barriers.
