“While Brazil is a major
competitor of U.S.
agriculture in world trade of
some products, I see many
opportunities for cooperation
- in building markets, in
trade liberalization, and in
improving agricultural
technology,” Secretary Butz
said. He added the following
points:
1- We will explore with
American producer and
trade groups opportunities to
work with Brazil in ex
panding the world market
for soybeans and soybean
products. There is an
enormous opportunity to
increase the use of soybean
meal in livestock and poultry
feeding around the world, as
well as within Brazil. There
is potential for enlarging the
world market for soybean
oil, particularly through the
retail merchandising of
“identified” soybean .oil -
that is, oil labeled as a
soybean product, not simply
as vegetable oil. There is
also an opportunity to in
crease the use of soybean
proteins directly as human
food-in the traditional forms
developed in Asia and in the
products of modern protein
technology. The United
States and Brazil, as the
world’s dominant soybean
exporters, would both
benefit from an overall
expansion in worldwide use
of soybeans.
2. Brazil and the United
States, as major exporters of
agricultural products, have
a common interest in
liberalized trade. I discussed
with Minister of Agriculture
Alysson Paulinelli of Brazil
the need for joint con
sultations as we move for
ward in the Multilateral
Trade Negotiations in
Geneva. The Minister and
other Brazilian officials
recognize that our two
nations have a similar in
terest in lowering barriers to
trade in agricultural

products. Last year, Brazil
exported $4.5 billion of
agricultural products, with
coffee and sugar making up
over half of the total. The
United States exported $22
billion in agricultural
products, with grains ac
counting for half.
3. Brazil has graduated
from the kinds of technical
assistance based on financial
aid from the United States.
The Brazilians are in
terested, however, in an
exchange of technical teams,
particularly in fields of soil
and water conservation,
irrigation, and the U.S.

transmitting new research

“Venezuelan officials also
expressed an interest in
‘importing’ agricultural
technology from the United
States;” Secretary Butz said.
“They are especially in
terested in seed im
provement. Venezuela is a
deficit food producer, and
has used its rising petroleum
revenues to sharply increase
its imports of farm products.
In 1974, the United States
exported $323 million worth
of farm products to
Venezuela.
“In both Venezuela and
Brazil, we discussed the
need for efficient production,
with trade based on com
parative advantage. Brazil,
for example, shipped $302
million of coffee to the
United States last year.

can produce tropical
products that we need, while
we have an advantage in
producing certain temperate

be the basis for an expanding

Fires and falls caused
