Four-fifths of the 1959 exports originated in Asia. Burma, Communist China, and Thailand with combined exports of over tons accounted for 26, 25, and 17 percent, respectively, of world trade.
The United States was the fourth largest exporter, supplying about 11 percent of all exports. Exports were materially above the preceding year, but lower than the 1956 record. The United States led all ex porters in the number of countries to which rice was shipped.
