 Historical Data This report began in 1960 and measured initially only direct exports 
              and direct export-related employment. In 1976, the program was expanded 
              to encompass analytically-derived estimates for supporting exports 
              and related employment. Users should bear in mind, though, that 
              methodological changes can affect the comparability of these data 
              when making year-toyear comparisons. This is particularly true with 
              respect to these preliminary estimates for 2005 forward and how 
              they relate to previously published years. Use the links below to view the historic data for each survey.  **Exports from Manufacturing
