Abstract
A segurança alimentar é uma preocupação permanente para todas as nações, mas nesse início de século o tema ganhou destaque internacional porque o crescimento vigoroso da economia global e a demanda de produtos agrícolas para produção de biocombustível pressionaram os preços para cima. O Brasil é um importante exportador de alimentos, com participação crescente no mercado internacional. Esse trabalho estima as funções de exportação dos alimentos a partir de dados da FAO para o período 1961 a 2005. Os resultados mostram que a influência do crescimento mundial é bem maior que a das variações cambiais o que contribui para justificar os crescentes superávits da agricultura, a despeito da apreciação cambial.---------------------Food safety is a permanent concern for all nations, but in that century beginning the theme had international prominence when vigorous global economic growth and biofuel demand push up agricultural prices. Brazil is an important food exporter, with growing market-share. This paper estimates food export function using FAO data from 1961 to 2005. Results show that world growth impact is much larger than those of exchange variations what contributes to justify crescents agricultural superavits, in spite of exchange real appreciation.
