exports and imports over a two- or five-year period.
Production, Supply and Distribution Database (PS&D)
This database contains current and
historical official USDA data on production, supply and distribution of
agricultural commodities for the United States and key producing and
consuming countries. Users may select from a menu of pre-defined tables
categorized by commodity or commodity group (see Pre-defined Tables below),
or create custom queries for specific commodities, attributes and/or
countries (see Custom Query tab above). For your convenience, the system
enables you to view queried data on screen or download it as a file that you
can open with your spreadsheet or database program.
Export Sales Query System
This database allows users to search for information dating from Jan. 1,
1999, to the present, based on commodity and country of destination. Data
typically will be updated on a weekly basis, usually Thursdays, with the
release of the weekly export sales report. Additionally, the database will
produce custom graphs showing outstanding sales and exports of a particular
commodity by marketing year, as well as comparing data from the previous
year and a 5-year average.
Processed Food Export Groupings
Using aggregations that are meaningful to both
professionals in the food industry and the public, processed food products
and ingredients are assigned to 15 categories within the database. Each
category has at least five, and as many as 14, subcategories of products
that can be examined. Aggregations are available of particular 10-digit
codes representing processed food products in Schedule B of the U.S.
Harmonized Trade System, under which all U.S. trade data are originally
collected by the Census Bureau of the U.S. Department of Commerce.
