After All, Do These Layoffs Reflect An Imminent Crisis In The Brazilian Agricultural Sector? What More Could Be Coming? Share Your Opinion In The Comments!

Minha opinião é que essa crise foi provocada pela alta demanda por máquinas novas , quando soja e milho atingiram preços excepcionais no balcão..( 205,00 e 102,00 respectivamente)…
devido a alta procura as indústrias maís que dobraram os preços de seus produtos…….depois, soja e milho tiveram uma queda de 50% nos preços, enquanto a indústria NÃO DIMINUIU praticamente NADA em seus preços e LUCROS………o resultado é esse……..nenhum governo ( seja de direita ou esquerda ) tem a ver com esse tipo de crise……
