From May through September 2014, FAS Brasilia staff visited six of Brazil’s nine states which make up ‘’Amazonia Legal," a political-administrative region situated in the northern half of Brazil. The objective of these visits was to gain a better understanding of the impact of public and private sector investments in agricultural production and port and transportation infrastructure vital for advancing Brazilian agriculture. As these investments move forward, they will heighten Brazilian agricultural competitiveness.
