Agriculture's Foreign Markets Highlight Export Gains
WD Curtis of Louisiana State University notes farm exports for the year ending June 30 reached about 4.9 billion dollars, up 10 percent from the prior year and topping the prior record. Wheat and cotton led growth, with codar and rice as major Louisiana export crops. International trade remains essential as imports offset exports, supplying items not grown domestically and sustaining economic welfare.
