| 1. This table
shows export destinations receiving at least 5% of the
total exports for the top 33 |
|
|
| export
commodities, and for an additional 8 commodities for
which California accounts for over |
|
|
| 85%
of U.S. exports, or for which reliable export data was
available. For each of the 9 |
|
|
|
| commodities
that are not included here, California accounts for less
than 25% of U.S. |
|
|
|
| exports, making
it difficult to estimate export destinations with
available data sources. |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| 2.
For commodities for which California produces 85% or
greater of U.S. exports, percentages were |
|
|
| equal to national
percentages in each country. |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| 3.
For commodities for which California produces less than
85% of U.S. exports, the principle sources |
|
|
| for
destination percentages were California port data and
Canadian import data. However, California |
|
|
| port
data may not accurately reflect export destinations for
some products produced in California. |
|
|
| In those cases
adjustments were made using industry information. |
