(Austria) and make use of the COMTRADE database for my master's thesis. I really need the historic data, then.
I encounter the following problem:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
When checking imports in the SITC, rev. 1 classification, for reporter:
Netherlands, for partner: Cameroon, for Year: 1962, I get the following
quantity in AG0 (total)&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
14,603,189 US$&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
However, when checking the same query for 072 (cocoa) the number is&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
23,130,692 US$&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How can the number for cocoa only be so much bigger than the total? &lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
