USDA’s Chief Economist Rob Johansson says China is key.

“The forecast of exports to China is higher by $3.5 billion compared to our estimates in August and is now expected to reach nearly $11 billion," he says.

Johansson says that is about $1 billion more than this past fiscal year, which should make up for some projected slower sales to Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Philippines and the EU.
