Kansas is a leading agricultural state whose trade is dominated by exports of wheat, sorghum, beef, and soybeans, making it one of the top grain-exporting states in the US. The state also has a significant aerospace manufacturing sector, with aircraft and aircraft parts representing a major non-agricultural export category. As a landlocked state, Kansas relies on rail corridors and trucking to reach Gulf Coast and Pacific ports for international shipment.
Kansas's top exports include wheat, sorghum, beef and beef products, soybeans, and aircraft and aircraft parts, with agriculture and aerospace as the two dominant export sectors.
Kansas's leading export destinations include Mexico, Canada, Japan, China, and various Middle Eastern and African nations that are significant importers of US wheat and grain.
Kansas, particularly the Wichita area, is a major center for general aviation and aircraft manufacturing, with companies like Cessna, Beechcraft, and Spirit AeroSystems contributing substantially to the state's non-agricultural export value.
