New Resource--UN Commodity Trade Statistics Database

Detailed international commodity trade data is now available via UN Comtrade. This resource includes downloadable data on international trade from over 130 countries. The data is detailed by commodity and partner country, and includes value in US dollars and (where possible) quantity. For many countries the data coverage begins as far back as 1962 and continues up to the most recent, completed year. Campus users can download unlimited data. If you are not affiliated with the University, you can still view data at: http://unstats.un.org/unsd/comtrade
