Book excerpt: Excerpt from Food and Agricultural Export Directory, 1974 The estimated $20 billion worth of agricultural commodities and products to be exported for the year ending June 30, 1974 is a tribute to the energy, sales ability and durability, and the traditional trading spirit of the American agricultural community. Exports are providing markets for nearly three-fourths of the equivalent annual wheat crop; two - thirds of the rice; half of the soybeans; more than one-third of the cotton and tobacco; and one - fourth of the feed grains. About one - fifth of 1973_net farm income came from agricultural exports. About one - half of the 1973 increase in net farm income over 1972 resulted from farm exports. Production of one out of every four harvested acres is sold abroad. Because of export requirements, U. S. Land in crops is increasing annually by millions of acres.
