The largest agricultural production increases last year occurred in Canada, Mexico, Brazil, and all the Central American countries except Costa Rica. Declines occurred in Haiti, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Argentina, Ecuador, Paraguay, and Uruguay. Among commodities, production increases occurred for wheat, corn, sugar, coffee, soybeans, sorghum, dry beans, pork and milk. Rice and banana output declined while cotton production changed little. The average person in Latin America probably had less food available from domestic production in 1971 than in 1970. U.S. agricultural exports to the Western Hemisphere increased 9 percent, reaching $1.3 billion. U.S. agricultural imports from the Hemisphere declined slightly. The Hemisphere's prospects for 1972 include more sugar but less corn output, and a continued low level of beef exports.
