The documentation contains definitions and data descriptions.
It also gives samples of
the four types of tables that you can create from the custom
data page
Definitions/Notes
Blank cells indicate that there are no data.
Export
quantities are in short tons (2000 pounds/ton)
and do not include re-exported fertilizers.
Import quantities are in short tons. Import values are
determined on a customs valuation basis, which excludes
U.S. import duties, ocean freight, insurance, and other
charges incurred in bringing the merchandise to the United
States. The value generally is the current transaction
value of imports at the foreign port of export to the
United States.
Annual summary data cover January
to December.

Table Format Options
We have provided 2 standard table formats and 4 custom table formats
that should meet most user needs. The two standard formats are in a downloadable
format (Excel):
- Quantity of fertilizer exported by year, country, and product
- Quantity and value of fertilizer imported by year, country, and product
The four custom formats are in interactive format. Users can select among four
options for reporting:
