Resumen

Descripción

In recent years, Brazil has become the world's second largest producer of soyabean after the USA, and is now the leading exporter of soya oil, as it has been of soya cattle cake since the early 1980s. Soya is now the motor of Brazilian agribusiness,pushing coffee, groundnuts, haricot beans and maize out of many areas, and being grown by small and large producers alike. While much of the oil is consumed locally, the cattle cake is mainly exported. This expansion has been aided by Brazil's natural advantages and government financial support, as well as an increase in world demand since the 1960s. However, the debt crisis of the 1970s tightened up credit and decreased government support, with the result that growth in the sector reached its limit, tothe benefit of Argentina and the USA. Brazilian production has restructured itself in response, but it is expected that price instability will continue to be the norm in the market.
