Graph of U.S. Agricultural Exports Almonds, Cotton, Rice, Soybeans, Wheat, Beef, Corn, Pork



Exports account for more than 50 percent of U.S. cotton and almond production: Roughly 75 percent of all U.S. cotton is exported, with the majority going to countries in North and Central America like Canada, Mexico, and Nicaragua. U.S.-produced almonds, grown almost exclusively in California, represent nearly 79 percent of global supply and are naturally shipped worldwide, with 67 percent of production exported. Rice, soybeans, and wheat also depend heavily on export markets as the destination for about half of domestic supply.
