Abstract in Portuguese
Este trabalho, organizado sob a forma de dois artigos, faz uma investigação a fim de esclarecer os vínculos entre comércio internacional e meio ambiente em geral, e no caso do setor do Agronegócio, em particular, focando, sobretudo, no aspecto da competitividade. No primeiro artigo, inicialmente procedeu-se uma revisão das questões teóricas atinentes às interfaces econômicas entre agricultura, meio ambiente e comércio, assim como a análise comparativa dos principais métodos empregados para estudar estes vínculos. Em seguida, especial atenção foi dedicada à identificação dos mecanismos pelos quais as políticas destinadas à promoção da sustentabilidade ambiental no setor do agronegócio podem afetar os preços, o comércio e o bem-estar social. Por fim, foram exploradas as implicações políticas que são derivadas do estudo de caso brasileiro, concluindo-se pela necessidade de construção de uma agenda de pesquisas local para o tema. O segundo artigo pode ser visto como um teste empírico para o Agronegócio das antagônicas posições defendidas por economistas seguidores da abordagem tradicional em relação aos seguidores da hipótese de Porter no que tange aos impactos do maior rigor das regulações ambientais sobre os padrões internacionais de comércio. Tal análise foi conduzida mediante a adequação do modelo H-O-V para permitir a inclusão de variáveis representativas da performance ambiental dos países analisados. Os resultados revelam que as exportações líquidas dos produtos agrícolas classificados como ambientalmente sensíveis podem ser afetadas positiva ou adversamente segundo setor e indicador ambiental em questão.

Abstract in English
Organized in two articles, this dissertation makes an investigation to clarify the links between international trade and environment in general and in the case of the agribusiness sector, in particular, focusing mainly on the issue of competitiveness. In the first article, initially there was a review of theoretical issues pertaining to economic interfaces between agriculture, environment and trade, and comparative analysis of the main methods used to study these links. Then, special attention was devoted to identifying the mechanisms by which policies to promote environmental sustainability in the agribusiness sector can affect prices, trade and social welfare. Finally, were explored the policy implications that are derived from the study of the Brazilian case, concluding by the need to construct an agenda for research site for the theme. The second article can be seen as an empirical test for the Agribusiness of antagonistic positions advocated by economists followers of the traditional approach for followers of the possibility of Porter with regard to the impacts of the tightening of environmental regulations on international standards of commerce. This analysis was conducted by the adequacy of the H-O-V model to allow for the inclusion of variables representing the environmental performance of the countries examined. The results show that net exports of agricultural products classified as environmentally sensitive can be positively or adversely affected the second sector and environmental indicator in question.
