In a study of "Foreign Trade in Agriculture" Products.' laid before i wide lit; of busiucss men and t'ur-vers. ' ' . ommlttee says that the shrtnkav, > Pi exports of grains, meat .-. nd cot?<--? account for over 85 per cent o'. e decreases In U. S. farmf exports. Tea years ago. says the report, ag -ricultnrrexports were valued at $1.JH>7.780.000 and formed ovor IS per cent of the total gross farm In- , come. In the crop year 1936-37, agricultural exports had shrunk to $732,826,000 andl formed only about seven mid a half per cent of total farm income, Part of this decrease of $1,200 000.000, the committee says, ' was due to the tact that prices for all ' goods were much lower In 1936-87 than in 1926-27. "But of far more Importance,' it aays, 'Is the fact tthat $1,018,647,000, or approximately ' 87 per cent of this decrease was accounted for by cotton, wheat and meat. , , "Therefore unless reciprocal trade agreements can increase exports In these three fields, In each of which a special condition prevails. It is difficult to see how they can materially Increase our "total farm exports."
