【 摘 要 】

Iowa and Texas now rank second and third, respectively, among U.S. agricultural exporting States after California, as fiscal 2003 U.S. agricultural exports expanded. Exports of soybeans, cotton, wheat, live animals and meat, and tree nuts grew. Higher prices, strong growth, and a weaker U.S. dollar relative to competitor currencies contributed to export gains. Iowa ranked first in soybean exports; both Iowa and Texas had strong livestock exports.
