摘要：	Brazil is the second largest soybean exporter after the United States and one of the most important U.S. competitors in the world oilseeds market. Brazils competitiveness in the world market depends largely on transportation infrastructure and cost. The Soybean Transportation Guide is a visual snapshot of Brazilian soybean transportation in 2007. It provides data on the cost of shipping soybeans via highways and ships to Shanghai, China, and Hamburg, Germany, and gives information about soybean production, exporting, railways, and ports. Total 2007 Brazilian soybean transportation costs to Hamburg and Shanghai increased 3254 percent in Mato Grosso (MT), Parana (PR), Rio Grande do Sul (RS) and South Goias (GO) from a year earlier. These areas saw proportionally higher increases in transportation costs in terms of the U.S. dollar because of the 10.5 percent appreciation of the real against the dollar, which lowers transportation costs for Brazilian shippers. Since 2005, the real has appreciated 20 percent against the U.S. dollar. This, combined with increased soybean demand from China, put pressure on international transportation rates that could result in higher shipping costs for U.S. exporters.
