The objective of this study was to analyze changes in price and amounts of wood pulp, wood panels, sawn wood and paper exported by Brazil. Additionally, it was also aimed to analyze the relationship between supply and demand in the period of 1995-2013. Data from FAO of price variation and exported amounts over the years were organized graphically, and their annual average change rates were calculated through trend models. Influenced by the competitive advantage in the production of raw materials and investments in the sector, the export annual rates of wood pulp and paper were 10.13% and 2.60%, respectively. Related to the dynamics of USA economy, export rates of wood panels and sawn wood were 5.94% and -0.0087%, respectively. The change rates for prices were -3.73% for wood pulp, -2.35% for sawn wood, -7.35% for wood panels and -5.10% for paper. Price trends followed dollar exchange rate. Brazilian supply of wood pulp, wood panels and paper in the international market increased between 1995 and 2013. However, there was a decrease in lumber demand in the same period.Downloads
