Faced with a stable price scenario for major agricultural commodities, rural producers will need to reduce production costs in order to achieve positive margins for their business. Marcos Fava Neves, professor at the Faculty of Economics, Administration and Accounting at the University of São Paulo (FEA-USP), told a seminar at the National Soya Forum during Expodireto Cotrijal, which will take place until Friday (09), in Not-me-touch (RS).
“Brazil has exported US $ 100 billion a year, and this only in soy, corn, cotton and meat. Over the next ten years, our export will grow to about $ 155 billion. It’s a lot of income coming in and the price perspective is the one that’s there, “Fava Neves said.
“Therefore, the producer will need to learn how to build margin, that is, at the current price to try to reduce production costs, so that he can get the margin and can bring all these billions of dollars that are available to Brazil in the world market,” he said.
