minerals again played in our favor. That's why according to preliminary figures from Customs, Peruvian exports in the first half year totaled U.S. $ 15,837.4 million, an increase of 37% compared to the same period last year when the amount was U.S. $ 11,547.2 million reported the Association of Exporters (ADEX).

It should be noted that in the same period of 2009, representation was 75% (Traditional) and 25% (Non-Traditional), which means that between January and June this year, exports value-added reduced their importance in the total .
For Economic Studies Department of ADEX, preliminary statistics showed that exports in June are on track to exceed domestic mishaps caused by the dock strike and that they are using the relative calm that is evident in the international market, especially in the U.S. Asia and some European Union markets.
The traditional sector grew by 42% (U.S. $ 12,395.8 million) from U.S. $ 8,699.8 million in the first half of last year. In this sector, mining exports highlight the record U.S. $ 9,791.8 million, accounting for 62% of total shipments. This increase is explained by the recovery in the price of minerals, primarily gold about U.S. $ 1.200 an ounce and was last year at $ 800.
also the good prices of copper and copper development projects have given way to growth in exports of that product (79%) with sales of just over U.S. $ 4,009.8 million. It also highlights the export of petroleum products (growth of 106%), fishery products, mainly fish meal, for $ 915.3 million) and agricultural products (coffee, sugar, cotton and others) that showed a variation 25% and totaled U.S. $ 190.3 million.
For their part, non-traditional exports amounted to U.S. $ 3,441.5 million, 21% more than in 2009 (U.S. $ 2,847.3 million), and 3.5% less than the same period of 2008 when the amount was U.S. $ 3,565.3 million. The main sub-sector, agriculture and agribusiness, increased by 15%, with shipments of $ 905.3 million, while in the same period last year was U.S. $ 788.4 million.
For the amount exported, followed by the chemical sub U.S. $ 565.9 million. The garments are red with $ 530.6 million and a 4% drop compared to the same period last year and -31.6% compared to 2008 and the Non-Traditional fisheries subsector showing a growth of 22% (U.S. $ 338.5 million .)
exports to U.S. $ 185.2 million (growth of 6%), the subsector Steel and metal to (U.S. $ 370.9 million), "Miscellaneous" with $ 173.7 million), textiles (U.S. $ 171.8 million), Non-Metallic Mining (U.S. $ 89.5 million) and Timber (U.S. $ 84.1 million), growing of 27% over January-June 2009, but 27.5% less than in the same period in 2008.
regard to target markets in June, there are important facts to highlight. The first is the growth of exports to Brazil of 152%, which is very symptomatic because of the export strategy to follow is to take very dynamic regional markets like Brazil.
also
should be stressed in particular the recovery of U.S. exports in June grew by 82%. Exports to China and Canada are also growing above 50%. This evolution would be evidence that the trade agreements we are paying off Peru. (ADEX)
