Increase in Brazil Land Values Slowed due to Low Commodity Prices

земля

Commodity prices in Brazil are at their lowest level in several years and that is being reflected in the value of agricultural land. The value of agricultural land used for grain production in Brazil increased 3.2% in 2023 compared to an increase of 60% over the three prior years according to Fundacao Getulio Vargas.

The reason for the slowed valuation is declining commodity prices. According to the Center for Advanced Studies in Applied Economics (Cepea), in 2023 the price of soybeans in Brazil declined 22.2%, corn declined 25.0%, wheat declined 26.4%, and cotton declined 34.0%
