Extract: Honduras, a modest but steady consumer of U.S. agricultural goods, may purchase $75 million of U.S. farm products by 1990. That would be up from only $51 million in 1980, a year in which the United States exported more than $41 billion of agricultural commodities worldwide. Honduras increased farm imports throughout the seventies because of population growth rather than an expanding economy. The poorest country in Central America, Honduras will likely continue to have slow economic growth and a rising external debt in the eighties. This will blunt additional increases in U.S. agricultural imports.
