An unprecedented drought has led to fallowed fields and less food available for export. Ultimately, California can expect a rise in agricultural imports, O&#8217;Connell predicted, as grocers are unable to maintain volumes of locally-sourced produce.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf production is down in California,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bizjournals.com\/profiles\/company\/us\/ca\/pleasanton\/safeway_inc\/20162\">Safeway<\/a>\u00a0and other chains will have to source from somewhere,\u201d O&#8217;Connell said. \u201cUltimately we will get into a nasty dispute about whether we should use our water to grow crops for other people (in foreign countries).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The value of California fruit and nut exports was approximately $706 million in August and the value of vegetables was $133 million.<\/p>\n<p>Troubles in the ag export market have been compounded by a strengthening U.S. dollar across the world, O&#8217;Connell said. The European Union\u2019s concerns over Russian aggression, Africa\u2019s Ebola epidemic, Hong Kong\u2019s political unrest &#8212; all play a factor and \u201cthere\u2019s nothing to suggest that trend of a strengthening dollar will be reduced,\u201d O&#8217;Connell said.<\/p>\n<p>On a more positive note, California\u2019s overall export market rebounded from July to August, with merchandise trade up 2.4 percent to $14.55 billion when compared to the same month last year. The gains were led by exports of manufactured goods, which rose by 2.7 percent to $9.60 billion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCalifornia\u2019s economy still has an active and competitive manufacturing sector, despite what much of the rhetoric might have us believe, \u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bizjournals.com\/sacramento\/search\/results?q=Christopher%20Thornberg\">Christopher Thornberg<\/a>, founding partner of Beacon, said in a statement. He added that much of the growth is occurring in Southern California.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bizjournals.com\/sacramento\/news\/2014\/10\/06\/drought-cuts-california-food-exports-sharply.html\">Link to story<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Allen Young Exports of California food products took a dive in August, with fruit and tree nuts decreasing by 8 percent when compared to the same time last year and vegetables dropping by 7.8 percent,\u00a0according to data\u00a0released Friday by\u00a0Beacon &hellip;
