Site Guide

AgBrazil.com is a web site for serious investors. Our objective is to inform, not promote. Navigation links on the side bar direct you to the major topics. Within these topics are links to detailed information. Below are some pointers for navigating the site.

        - Before starting, note that we use Brazilian and metric weights and measures. These may not be familiar to you, and you may want to print Weights and Measures Conversions for reference. Keeping the conversions handy will help you quickly convert, for example, a Brazilian soybean yield of 55 sacks/ha to a US yield of about 50 bushels per acre.                                                                                                                                                          - After you print the weights and measures conversions, we suggest you click on   Brazil's Agriculture Frontier to get a quick overview of Brazil's cerrados                                

         - Proceed to Frontier Farming to see how two families started small and expanded their farms into large and highly profitable operations.They farm in the western part of the state of Bahia, roughly 500 kilometers north of Brasilia. There is also information on cotton production, coffee production and livestock production under pivot irrigation.

          - In Frontier Regions we discuss dryland and irrigated agriculture in the booming Western Bahia region. It's the region with the highest per capital income in Brazil.                                           

           - Everyone knows that Brazil's infrastructure is terribly backward and undeveloped. But if it's that bad, how can so many Brazilian farmers be making so much money farming without government payments? Go to Infrastructure to find out.       

            - Everyone wants to know about Brazil's "cheap land." You will find more information on that topic in Frontier Land than anywhere else. We caution you on what to look out for if you are seriously considering buying land in Brazil's frontier areas.            

            - Background information is our catchall section for miscellaneous information. There, you will find soil test data and other information. You may also want to check out some photos of the Western Bahia region. If you can't find what your 're looking for, click Site Outline
