Abstract

The objective of this study is to test the competitiveness of Brazilian imports of paddy rice from Uruguay, Argentina and the United States.

Procedures are used to estimate 2SLS and SUR. The results suggest that all three nations by marketing in Brazilian territory have power to determine prices of paddy, although small
