Soybeans, fruits, cottonseed and soybean oil, poultry meat tobacco, and vegetables In creased moderately. Rice, va riety meats, animal fats, hides and skins, and dairy products showed little or no change. Foraign Market Outlat The export record in fiscal 1961-62 represented 15 per cent of total cash receipts from farm marketinqs. The foreign market provided an outlet for more than half of the wheat, rice, and dried beans produced; two-fifths of the tallow; and around one third of the tobacco, cotton, soybeans, non-fat dry milk. and hides and skins. Nearly 70 per cent of U.S. exports In fiscal 1962 were sales for dollars. These to taled $3.5 billion compared with $3.4 billion in the pre vious year. Dollar sales in cluded, In addition to unas sisted commercial sales, ship ments of some commodities with government assistance in the form of credits for rela tively short periods, sales of government owned commodi ties at less than domestic prices, and export payments in kind or in cash. Dollar Gainers The principal gain in dol lar sales occurred in feed grains which Increased by one-fourth In value. The oth er dollar gainers Included wheat, tobacco, soybeans, fruits, and animal products. There was a decline, however, of one-third In dollar exports of cotton. The remaining 30 per cent of exports moved under gov ernment programs Public Law 480 and the Mutual Se curity Act. Shipments under these programs totaled $1.6 billion compared with $1.5 billion in the previous year. The value of agricultural Imports to the United States in the period July, 1961, through April, 1962, was up 3 per cent from the corre sponding period a year earli er. The value totaled $3.14 billion In these 10 months (latest period from which data available). The value of supplement ary, or partially competitive. imports for the 10 months was $1.7 billion compared with $1.5 billion in the pre vious year. The gain reflected 31 per cent larger purchases of animals and animal prod ucts, principally dutiable cat tle, beef and veal, apparel wool, and hides and skins. Im ports of vegetable oils, fats, and waxes also gained sub stantially In this period. Oth- sugar imports were unchanged irom a year earlier. The complementary, or non competitive, imports were B per cent smaller for the 10 months. The value was $1.44 billion compared with $1.53 billion the previous year. The decline reflected lower prices for major commodities such as coffee, cocoa beans, and crude natural rubber. Imporis Encouraged Strong U. S. demand en couraged beef and veal im ports. Imports increased to a record 667 million pound in July-April from 422 million ' for the like period a year earlier. The United States has be come an attractive market for Imports of boneless beef and veal resulting from the strong demand for meat products. The relatively low level of cow slaughter In the United States also contributed to in creased imports of beef and veal during the 10 months. On the other hand, production of low grade meats has in creased substantially In Aus tralia, New Zealand, and the Central American republics.
