Among the chief export commodities rugs have always ^except in 1323) held
the firat place, and in 1324 there were four times as many rugs exports as in 1323,
almost reaching the pre-war level. In value too these exports rose to 4 1 / / 2 times
their amount in the pre-war years. Exports of dry fruits, though more than double
the amount of what they were in 1323, are still only 60% of their pre-war level.
Exports of skins and rice have exceeded their average pre-war level. As to gum
tragacanth the amount of exports have been 75% by volume and 300% by value,
compared with the pre-war years. Lastly grain exports, though somewhat less
than 70% of the pre-war amount by volume were a little more than that level by
value.
The following schedule shows in the order of importance the names of
countries which have had important trade relations with Iran during the year
1324:
