Cotton was valued at £424,200, compared to 695,250 qintars in 1909, valued at £4,424,700. This means the quantity decreased by 14 percent and the value increased by 13 percent. As for the quantity that reached Alexandria and was exported from it until December 13th, it reached a level not reached in any previous year. The total quantity that arrived from the interior by that time reached five and a half million qintars, an increase of half a million qintars over the entire previous harvest. However, cotton seed decreased by 19 percent in quantity and 11 percent in value, as follows: Quantity | Value ------- | --------1910 | 267,300 ardeb | £216,000 1909 | 330,800 ardeb | £243,300 Onion was the largest crop known to date, but its value did not increase much compared to the previous year due to falling prices in the countries it is exported to. The quantity exported was 90,800 tons, valued at £264,000, compared to 73,000 tons in 1909, valued at £209,000. Rice exports were valued at £483,000, compared to £170,000 in 1909. Exports of beans, figs, sugar, oil cakes, and wool increased noticeably. The quantity and value of egg exports decreased, with 83,000 eggs exported, valued at £153,000, compared to 1,020,000 eggs in 1909, valued at £153,000. The value of gold and jewelry exports decreased from £85,000 to £49,000, indicating that the impact of the financial crisis on the poorer classes is diminishing. Tobacco Cut and dried tobacco decreased from 787,300 kilograms to 750,502 kilograms in 1910, a 4 percent decrease. However, prices rose, and imports from Russia increased from 113,000 kilograms to 781,000 kilograms, replacing some imports from Turkey, Greece, and the Balkan states. Turkey still holds the first position with a share of 42 percent, followed by Greece with a share of 32 percent. In conclusion, I would like to mention that a significant change occurred in the method of collecting export duties starting from September 1st of this year. In the past, it was customary to deduct 10 percent from the value of cotton, cotton seed, and grains before collecting duties, which was an unjustified deduction. This change is expected to increase customs revenue by £300,000 to £400,000 annually.
