摘要：	The record 2011 soybean crop, limited port capacity, and lack of alternative transportation modes and routes to export ports, drove Brazilian truck rates to the highest level since 2005. However, higher farm prices and lower ocean rates to major export routes offset the rise in truck rates, resulting in a lower total landed cost to China and Europe compared to last year. Brazilian soybean exports increased 14 percent by volume from 2010, to 33 million metric ton (mt) from 29 million mt. Exports by value increased 48 percent to US $16.3 billion from US $11 billion in 2010, caused by higher commodity prices and the appreciation of the Brazilian Real (R $) against the U.S. dollar (US $). Throughout 2011, the Brazilian Real appreciated 4.8 percent against the U.S. dollar, from R $1.75957 per 1S $ to 1.6751. China is Brazil's major soybean buyer, accounting for 67 percent of total exports. China bought 22.1 million mt of Brazilian soybeans in 2011, valued at nearly US$ 11.0 billion. China usually buys soybeans shipped from the southern ports of Santos, Paranagua, and Rio Grande through the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa to Shanghai. For example, the Port of Santos, Paranagua, and Rio Grande accounted for nearly 76 percent of total Brazilian soybean exports to China. Typically, the peak of Brazilian soybean exports occurs in May. By the end of August, about 80 percent of the years soybeans are exported.
