Infraestrutura de transportes e produtividade agrícola

This fact sheet highlights the high cost of transporting grain in Brazil compared to the United States, citing the BR-163 highway and the Porto de Santos as key examples of infrastructure and cost inefficiencies. It advocates for regulatory reforms in public ports and the replacement of implicit subsidies with more attractive long-term private investment frameworks to improve transport quality and reduce costs.

• Transporting grain in Brazil is significantly more expensive than in the United States; specifically, adequate infrastructure could reduce transport costs by 54%.
• The Porto de Santos is the most utilized port in Brazil but is also the most expensive, with docking fees 18 times higher than those at Santarém.
• Brazil's current regulatory framework for transport is described as complex and fragile, characterized by implicit subsidies and limits on long-term profitability that discourage private investors and create legal insecurity.
