Brazil Highways


Highways are crucial to agricultural logistics in most of Brazil because of a lack of railroads or waterways.  

Ministry of Transportation: Brazil has 1,580,000 km of roads and highways of which 87% are unpaved.

Cargo shipped via highways represented 65.64% of all cargo shipped in Brazil in 2010 versus a total of 64.94% in 2008.
