Abstract

Current research deals with an analysis on the relationship between exchange variations and export prices of soya beans in the USA, Brazil and Argentina, known as pass-through of the exchange rate, based on the period between January 2003 and January 2012. Temporal series, especially Error Corrector Vector Model was employed. Results provide data that the pass-through degree of the exchange rate for export prices of soya occurred in an incomplete form for the USA and for Brazil, whereas it was statistically insignificant for Argentina.
