SANTOS, Leandro Pereira dos; AVELAR, João Marcos Borges; SHIKIDA, Pery Francisco Assis  and  CARVALHO, Maria Auxiliadora de. Brazilian agribusiness in international trade. Rev. de Ciências Agrárias [online]. 2016, vol.39, n.1, pp.54-69. ISSN 0871-018X.  https://doi.org/10.19084/RCA15065.

The objective of this study is to analyze the insertion of Brazilian agribusiness in the international scenario of agricultural products, in an attempt to point out the country's general position and also its exported products, considering the periods between 1999-2001 and 2009-2011. The performance is evaluated based on both the country's and its products' participation in world imports. The methodological approach used is the model presented by Fajnzylber (1991). Results show that the Brazilian agribusiness has a positive position since both the country's global rating and a significant part of its export products are in excellent condition, according to the methodological approach adopted.

Keywords : agribusiness; competitiveness; internationaltrade.
