Abstract
Until the end of the 1960s, Brazilian agricultural exports were essentially confined to traditional tropical commodities (coffee, sugar, and cocoa). However, major changes occurred from the early 1970s as Brazil rapidly expanded and diversified its exports. Thus it is now among the leading world exporters of soybean oil and soybean meal, chicken, beef, and orange juice. An important supplier to the EEC (mainly soybean meal and coffee), Brazil is today, with the United States, one of the EEC’s principal competitors in certain world agricultural markets.
