Resumo

No início do século XXI, o setor agroalimentar entrou num ciclo de subida de preços com frequentes crises alimentares. Abordamos criticamente as explicações para as crises de 2008 e 2021/22, a fim de mostrar a dinâmica entre as tendências de médio e curto prazo que estão subjacentes a elas. Ponderamos os principais fatores que contribuem para a explicação e expomos a ligação entre a baixa produtividade do trabalho agrícola, o aumento dos custos associados aos hidrocarbonetos e a procura de biocombustíveis como a combinação que explica centralmente o processo subjacente a ambos os episódios. Nesse quadro, observamos que certos fatores disruptivos no comércio mundial, como a pandemia de COVID-19 ou o conflito russo-ucraniano, bem como complicações climáticas, podem induzir aumentos abruptos de preços ao interagir com as causas de médio prazo mencionadas.
