every year, an average of 44.5 million bags of aromatic grains, each weighing 60 kg, goes to 128 countries around the world. coffee plantations are the country's national pride. it employs 3.5 million people and cares for more than 6 billion coffee trees. the main tobacco and coffee region of the planet, among other things, also a leader in soybean exports, occupies half of the world market; prices for grain, oil and animal feed are constantly rising, which attracts thousands of farmers to the top crop. today in brazil almost all soybeans are produced 250,000 farms. also, the top three country in

corn exports actively grows sugar cane, potatoes, tomatoes, watermelons and other agricultural crops, and this requires equipment; this is where our country comes to the fore. the times are very interesting now, and distant geographical countries are becoming closer to us. brazil, for us, is that point in the distant arc.

the belarusian ambassador to brazil is confident that this market can only be entered by working 24x7, which is what belarusian enterprises are calling on to be more active, bolder, and in some cases more creative. the achievements of diplomats will certainly help, but without good marketing it will not work. an example of productive teamwork concerns mtz. imagine that the last belarusian tractor came to brazil, it’s scary to think, back in 1983, but very soon the situation will change dramatically. being in

brazil, it is difficult to get used to two things: the time difference, 6 hours from minsk and a long distance. to find out where belarusian tractors will be assembled in the future, today we have to travel 5 and a half hours in one direction only, and then you have to go back, but just put it in the light there is a chance to do it in one day, although for the country such mileage is an absolute trifle, but there are practically no options, because the railways here are poorly developed. so, 7 am and we are moving to the northeast of brazil in order to look at the promising one. a project between two countries, which local politicians and journalists talk about in virtually every interview. the state of gayas, the city of itumbira is the very center of the country, just 4 hours from here is the port of santas, also the largest in brazil. overall, a better point for logistics, you can’t imagine, it’s convenient to deliver from here, to the north, to the west, whatever.

both to the south and to the east, it is in this workshop that belarusian tractors of brands 112 and 152 under the makezheral brand will be produced. getting here is another challenge and sometimes you won’t envy the driver, there are sharp hill turns, very steep sections, and therefore you need to hold the steering wheel firmly, while monitoring the speed, there are practically no traffic police on the highways... and in brazil, the network of railways is poorly developed roads, the entire logistics burden falls specifically for road transport, which means that the truck needs to be loaded as tightly as possible, the length of trucks here is limited to 30 meters, but if more were allowed, no... the opinion is that

entire road trains would move along the roads. itumbiara is one of the hottest cities in brazil, during our shooting it was +39 on the street, but we have to fight not only with the scorching sun, the doors, as a rule, are wide open for ventilation, colorful guests, foxes, raccoons creep into the workshop every now and then red book snakes, the latter carefully they are taken back to the field, but they return again, apparently to assess the situation at production. jose ronaldo’s company has been selling generators for a long time, and today some of the products can still be seen in this building, the business is going well, our competencies will allow us to capture

the tractor market, he confidently states. if everything goes well, our enterprise will be able to cover only half of the real demand. therefore, we are planning to look forward, this land, what you see, we bought it, we are carrying out the design, we are planning that this territory will allow us to double our production capacity. the brazilian agricultural sector is very segmented, and we are targeting small tractors. belarusian journalists are being met here for the first time, and the line is the first sign of the belarusian agricultural presence in brazil, this is a taste of the feast for the locals.

find your niche, a low-power tractor for quite reasonable money, just what a huge market needs, given that the state supports small farming and provides loans for the purchase of agricultural machinery. the work here has been calculated in detail in advance, with the business component being taken to perfection. in total, in different regions, in order not to lose on logistics, they want to create several such assembly lines, but for the start they chose the center of brazil, to all parts of the country the distance is plus or minus. identical, ideal for the first push. we chose belarusian tractors because after studying the market we realized that this is the best offer on the market, and in operation, your equipment is simply reliable. we presented these models at

the largest exhibitions in brazil and everywhere increased attention and interest among private farmers. in brazil, such a tractor is already called the people's tractor. we haven’t even opened yet, but we have already received more than 8 thousand applications. we won’t fuss, the belarusian engine is still chinese, but our brazilian colleagues are serious, because the market of 200 million brazil is simply bottomless, only the territory is 8.5 million km, i don’t want to cultivate it. a joke from the brazilians: a belarusian tractor, like a brazilian girl, does not break down for a long time. has no analogues, because it is simple and repairable, this is exactly what we need needed in the fields. you can’t just deliver a ready-made tractor to brazil, the market is seriously regulated, the duties are very high and the entry point is precisely this option: cooperation with local companies. a localization level

of more than 50% allows you to minimize tax and customs expenses, which means you can compete with famous and popular brands on price. this practice can be scaled to other countries in south america, argentina, paraguay, uruguay, as well as diplomatic marketing. these are belarusian tractors central square in the capital of brazil. they were brought specially for the agricultural exhibition, and the belarusians aroused great interest among the local public. we got acquainted with our beauties and profiled them. minister and president of brazil, so the test drive at the highest level has been successfully completed. what is a joint tractor for brazil? this is not a tractor brought from belarus, this is a tractor that, based on belarusian technologies and components, was made in brazil with the participation of their workers, their

spare parts, some of their elements, and of course, this is much easier to tell us in an interview than do this, find these spare parts so that they fit, and so on and so forth, so now the process is of course so technical. it is painstaking, necessary, i hope that neither the minsk tractor plant nor the ministry of industry will lose the intensity with which we started this year well, technology, technology, it either... plows the field or harvests the crop, but it still needs it grow, here it’s difficult without fertilizers, brazilian senators do not hide that the country needs imports and refuse belarusian they don’t want products here, despite the western supply. duas perguntas que você fez: fertilizantes, fertilizer, it is worth noting that 85% is the dependence of brazil and belarus. there are fertilizers that can help, unfortunately, we are forced to look for a way out of addiction. machinery production,

in my opinion, belarus has the best technology in the world to produce the type of tractors that brazil needs. we move to rio de janeiro, without this city the story about brazil will not be complete, the city is translated from portuguese as january river, tourism, the second most important economic center of the country, the approximate population is 6,800 thousand people, even the city leadership will not announce the exact figure, why we will tell you a little later, but we are belarusians,

mostly in front of the statue of christ they steal and rob. nambeo's main database of cities and countries annually ranks rio in the top 5 most dangerous cities in the world. the crime index was 90 points out of a possible 100, which is regarded as an extremely dangerous place to be. however, local politicians.

by the way, it was in rio that the famous reset of relations between belarus and brazil took place. on march 22, 2010, alexander lukashenko and lula dasilova not only held a historic meeting, but also adopted a declaration on joint cooperation. in the same year , our embassy opened in brazil. another year later, the brazilian diplomatic mission appeared in minsk. since then, dialogue across the ocean has become much more active. but i want more, already in the twenty-third, the belarusian leader invited brazil to determine a development roadmap

relations and invited the president of brazil to visit belarus. our relations are, first of all, the president’s enormous contribution to belarus and brazil. our countries are building social policies, looking at the problems of ordinary people, helping the poor, this is what our leaders are doing. similar: lukashenko and lula are solving the real problems of their people. today , the distance between countries is losing its influence. this also affects the building of strong ties between territorially distant countries. the country we are with for many years we have maintained very friendly, trusting relations, countries with which we see the world with the same eyes, and share the principles of a fair world order. non-interference in internal affairs, sovereign equality of states, and of course, together we support each other on

international platforms, defending fundamental interests, protecting our sovereignty and independence. belarus is really heading towards a distant state, the time has come to expand cooperation, alexander has stated this more than once recently lukashenko. our trade interests and new potential are in africa, asia and latin america. as for the latter, here... belarus considers brazil as one of its most important trading partners. at the same time, minsk maintains diplomatic relations with all 33 countries of latin america and the caribbean. africa, latin america, asia, our trade interests, our new potential there. joining the shanghai cooperation organization, strengthening interaction with the ocean countries, has already opened the doors for belarus to the fastest growing and most

promising markets. in general , brazilian society today is on the rise in the sense that the federation, consisting of 26 states, is gradually waking up from the sleeping pills so skillfully injected by the americans back in the last century, but of course the decolonization of consciousness and the economy is a long, complex process. brazil's politics have been shaped by the united states for many years, but the previous president was bolsonaro. there are deputies and senators who say that brix, of course, is the most important project, but where are we without the usa, this is the kind of political split that makes us show that the entire geopolitics of brazil today is such a beach volleyball, but journalists are the conscience of the brazilian

nation, much more harsh and unambiguous in their statements. the usa pretends to fly the flag of democracy, but they do it in a hegemanistic style, which means that they impose certain rules and requirements on the rest of the world. if these countries do not accept these rules, then they are immediately called not democratic, it’s simple. russia, china and belarus are good examples of this policy. the only one who had the courage to challenge in the usa is julian assange, who confirmed.

and some countries allow themselves disrespect towards belarus. as an observer of world politics, i will say unequivocally: belarus is impossible not to notice. it has preserved and developed healthcare, industry, and government. you did not allow the country to be destroyed, you held it together. this is victory. this is one of the best examples we have after the collapse of the ussr. you are resisting pressure, it is obvious that president lukashenko -

this is the goal of western sabotage, which they do year after year, but you manage to give it with dignity. in brazil we have a lot of media with american money, they simply relay washington's teachings: russia started a fratricidal war for no reason, lukashenko and putin are dictators, i see the same articles about china, all the unwanted countries, such brazilian media describe them as in need of

democracy, but these materials do not in any way reflect the real views of brazilians. our people have a different view, there is no need to impose on us the opinion of the collective west. word the sanctions are also causing irritation in brazilian business circles. our country actively purchased spare parts for mbrier aircraft, and the same potash fertilizers were supplied back. to put this into perspective, a fifth of our potash exports went across the atlantic. brazil has not introduced any bans against us, but there are secondary sanctions, not to mention. reef who wants to control everything, but we don’t agree with this approach. brazil also opposes sanctions pressure on belarus, this is not...
