Containers, Ports and Non-Grain Agricultural Products

Many agricultural products require special handling and services during transit. The weekly Ocean Shipping Container Availability Report (OSCAR) provides a snapshot of container availability at 18 select intermodal locations around the United States. The Agricultural Refrigerated Truck Quarterly Report (AgRTQ) provides a view of U.S. regional refrigerated truckload movements, in terms of volume and rates, to gauge the market trends in truck transportation of fresh fruits and vegetables.
