Thin cumulative trade book
Sweden in the thin-trade third
$70.0B cumulative 2018–2023 ag trade puts Sweden in the lightest third of FAO partners here (#46 of 50).
Cumulative 2018-2023 ag trade for Sweden is $70.0B, a thin-third book; ordinal swings look large in percent terms even when absolute dollars stay smaller. Even at thin scale, Undenatured ethyl alcohol of an alcoholic strength by volume of less than 80% vol; spirits; liqueurs and other spirituous beverages still tops exports and Wine tops imports. US MFN duties follow the product's HTS classification, not origin; Sweden-origin shipments may still qualify for preferential Special rates under applicable FTAs.
