Rice Production and Trade in Latin America Challenges Towards the Future

Rice Production and Trade in Latin America Challenges Towards the Future

This article presents some reflections on the future of production and trade in Latin America. It begins with a brief analysis of the socio-economic environment of recent years and its impact on agriculture as a whole, where rice production in many countries has suffered along with other crops due to the combined effect of a sudden withdrawal of protection measures and the consequent fall in profitability, dumping of international prices and the low exchange rate of the dollar. Although increasing competitiveness, defined as the capacity of a country's internal production to improve its participation in the internal or external market, involves several components, the only genuine dimension of improvement has to do with comparative advantages, where change Technological, as a cost reduction factor, is an essential component.

Comienza con un breve análisis del entorno socioeconómico de los últimos años y su impacto en la agricultura en su conjunto, donde la producción de arroz en muchos países ha sufrido junto con otros cultivos debido al efecto combinado de una retirada repentina de las medidas de protección y la consiguiente caída de la rentabilidad, el dumping de los precios internacionales y el bajo tipo de cambio del dólar.
