Agricultural Trade Multipliers: Agricultural trade multipliers provide estimates of employment and/or output effects of trade in farm and food products on the U.S. economy. These effects, when expressed as multipliers, reflect the amount of economic activity and/or jobs generated by agricultural exports. This data product offers two options through which to display agricultural trade multipliers: as pre-defined ERS estimates for the most recent calendar year available or as estimates generated by an interactive calculator that enables users to select their own basket of exports and/or apply a new set of trade margins to the commodity or basket of goods.

Bilateral Fiber and Textile Trade: The Uruguay Round's 1995 Agreement on Textiles and Clothing (ATC) mandated the phase-out of import quotas sanctioned for decades under agreements like the 1974 Multi-Fiber Arrangement (MFA). These quotas are scheduled for complete removal by 2005, and their elimination could bring significant changes in fiber and textile trade in the next few years. Having access to bilateral trade data across the various products within the fiber-textile sector lays the foundation for better understanding of trade patterns and can underpin analyses of potential changes as the policy environment evolves. This database provides information about source-destination trade flows among 42 exporting and importing country/regions on 43 commodities and product aggregates on an annual basis from 1992 through 2002.

Commodity and Food Elasticities: The Commodity and Food Elasticities Database is a collection of elasticities from research on consumer demand published in working papers, dissertations, and peer-reviewed journals and as presented at professional conferences in the United States.

The database allows queriable searches of income, expenditure, and own- and cross-price elasticities for specific commodities and countries, which can be ranked and sorted. The most fully covered countries are the United States and China, and the greatest number of demand studies are for vegetables, fruits, and grocery products such as coffee and ketchup.
