In the midst of all the discussion about freight tariffs, the only certainty so far, is that the National Land Transport Agency (ANTT) will continue to fine those who disrespected the government’s determination.
Faced with uncertainties about the permanence or not of the tabulation, Transportefy, a company specialized in transportation, showed in two scenarios. What can happen if the measure continues to be valid and even if it is prevented, since agribusiness entities consider the tabulation unconstitutional.

If the freight table is still valid:
– Fixed trading: Having a base table gives the trading guidelines in a global way, so the small one receives the same freight value as the big one, even in the off season.
– The low margin of negotiation reduces the number of freights, but in turn the profit of the freight can be bigger.
-Diminishes the number of third parties, which in turn causes carriers to contract more and invest in their fleets, heating up the market for the sale of heavy vehicles.
And if the table is canceled:
– Free market: drivers and carriers have freedom to negotiate within their limits and needs, without government intervention.
– Incentive to outsourcing: With greater margin of negotiation, the carriers will increase the number of third parties and, with this, more freights will be made available in the market, moving the sector economically.
– More affordable cargo transport prices for final customers.
– Change in value may happen according to demand, as in the case of the harvest period (when demand increases) or off-season (when demand falls).
