Abstract

Paraguay se encuentra entre los principales productores y exportadores de soja del mundo. En este trabajo analizamos la relación entre la producción de soja y el empleo, los niveles de pobreza, el estado de la salud y la migración en los principales departamentos productores de soja. Finalmente, nuestros modelos econométricos ponen de manifiesto la incidencia de este producto sobre el empleo y el ingreso promedio para el período 2003-07.

In this paper we analyze the relationship between soybean production and employment, poverty level, health status and migration in the major soybean-producing regions. Finally, our econometric models show the impact of this product on employment and income in the period 2003-07.
