Northern farmers of grains were as disadvantaged as southern tobacco and cotton farmers, compared to those who bought, sold, distributed and exported any agricultural goods.

How much grain was exported by Northern farmers?   Do statistics even exist that removes Southern grain production from Northern grain production?   I didn't think so either.

The census every ten years lists the agricultural outputs of the States. So it is easy to see how much wheat is grown in Indiana, how much tobacco in Virginia and how much cotton in Alabama.
