NOTE: The trade data aggregations used in this report may not correspond with other USDA published trade data aggregations. The U.S. trade data also may not correspond exactly with Mexico's trade data or commodity items subject to transitional tariff-rate quotas due to differences in tariff classifications and shipping periods. The term quantitative restriction used in this report refers to barriers such as discretionary import licenses, import quotas, or import bans.
