What Are Commodities?
Commodities Are Products That Are Raw Materials and Can Be Produced on a Large Scale. The Best Way to Illustrate This Is With Examples: Soybeans, Oil, Pulp, Etc. The Most Important Characteristic Is That They Have a Fixed Price, Like a Currency. Therefore, the Great Advantage of Exporting Goods Is Linked to the Volume of Sales. Because They Are the Basic Raw Materials of Industry, This High Circulation Leads to Increasing Volume. Today, Brazil Is a Commodity Power.
Brazilian Exports in 2018 Reached US$239.89 Billion, While Imports Were US$181.23 Billion, Resulting in a Positive Trade Balance of US$58.66 Billion. The Export Agenda Consisted Mainly of Basic Products, Responsible for 49.73% of Exports. Following Were Manufactured Products, Semi-Manufactured Goods, and Special Operations, With Shares of 36.08%, 12.74%, and 1.45%, Respectively.
The Main Product of Brazil’s Export Agenda Was Soybeans. Grain Exports Accounted for 14% of the Total, and Considering the Exports of Meal, the Share Increased to 16.8%. Grain and Meal Exports Generated a Flow of US$33.19 Billion and US$6.7 Billion, Respectively, in 2018. In Addition to Soybeans, Crude Oil and Iron Ore Also Stood Out, Not Only Among Basic Products but in the Overall Export Agenda, Accounting for 10% and 8.4% of Exports in 2018, Respectively.
