In contrast, import activity also saw a notable rise, totaling $4.03 billion in February, reflecting a 10% uptick and indicating increased economic activity and demand for foreign goods.

Despite the rise in both exports and imports, the trade deficit for February remains a concern.

However, there is optimism in the broader context, as the trade deficit for the first eight months of the current fiscal year saw a significant reduction. The deficit decreased by 30%, amounting to $14.9 billion during this period.
