It depends on what you count, as "agriculture exports" could (probably do) also include, apart from food items:

- Agricultural machines

- Seeds

- Agricultural patents on e.g. seeds

- Fertilizers

- non-food plants (flowers etc.)

- (Animal) vaccins

- other agricultural products processed ("produced") in the Netherlands

And if you count those by value, then it is certainly possible that NL gets a large share of world exports by value: other countries like Germany may produce more, but if they don't export the valuable products it won't show up on world export stats.
