Prices for agricultural exports fell 3.9 percent over the past year, the largest 12-month drop since prices fell 4.5 percent for the year ended June 2020. The over-the-year decrease in April was primarily driven by lower prices for soybeans, corn, meat, and wheat.
Nonagricultural export prices declined 6.3 percent from April 2022 to April 2023, the largest 12-month decrease since prices fell 7.0 percent in May 2020.
