Overview
Brazil's agriculture value added stood at 5.83% in 2025, a rise of +0.07% from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 5.83% by 2025. Brazil ranked 97th globally.
Brazil’s agriculture value added has risen from a reported zero in 1960 to 5.83 % of GDP in 2025, placing the country 97th in the world. The sector’s all‑time peak of 11.86 % occurred in 1984, while a trough of zero was recorded in 1980, reflecting the volatility of Brazil’s agrarian base during the early 1980s. Over the 66‑year coverage period the indicator has shown a long‑term upward trajectory, albeit far below its historic high, and the 2025 figure is comparable to peers such as Uruguay (5.91 %) and Türkiye (5.86 %). The modest increase suggests that structural reforms, investment in technology and expanding export markets could help Brazil close the gap with its regional counterparts and move the value added share closer to its 1984 peak in the coming decades.
