Note: — Data on imports and exports cover the international trade ot 1/6 countries or areas. The 

 total value ot exports is consistently less than the total value ot imports, probably because 

 charges tor insurance, treight, and similar expenses were included in the import value but not 

 in the export value. The seven tishery commodity groups covered by this table are: 1. Fish, 

 tresh, chilled or trozen; 2. Fish, dried, salted, or smoked; 3. Crustaceans and mollusks, 

 tresh, dried, salted,, etc.; 4. Fish products and preparations, whether or not in airtight 

 containers; 5. Crustacean and mollusk products and preparations, whether or not in airtight 

 containers; 6. Oils and tats, crude or relined, ot aquatic animal origin; and /. Meals, 

 solubles and similar animal loodstutts ot aquatic animal origin.
