U.S. pork exports in February totaled 377 million pounds, a ten percent decline when compared to February 2014, the USDA reported.
According to the USDALivestock, Dairy and Poultry Outlook report released on April 15, lower pork exports were a likely consequence of the high exchange rate value of the U.S. dollar. The USDA also indicated that a labor dispute at West Coast ports, which have now been resolved, slowed both the import and the export of pork.
