DESVALORIZAÇÕES CAMBIAIS E CAPTAÇÃO DE DIVISAS: O CASO BRASILEIRO DE SOJA EM GRÃO

This paper, supported on the theory of the Boarding of the Elasticities, had as objective to show the influence of the exchange ratedepreciation in the value of the Brazilian exportations. For this purpose, Structural Vector Autoregressive Models (SVAR Models)where used to calculate the offer of foreign currency elasticities, determining if depreciations in the currency would increase or reducethe exported value of soybean. The results showed that cambial depreciations really raise the value of the Brazilian exportations. Theimpulse response functions show that the exportation price is the variable that exerted greater influence in the exported value,indicating, perhaps, that politics that degenerate the Brazilian soybean exportations can contribute for the capitation of foreigncurrency through this product.
