“…Thus, it is conceivable that such a system has been created on multiple scales, from industrial to regional, state, country, and global levels ( Bhunnoo, 2019 ). However, the production capacity to meet the global demand for food is drawing close attention ( De Lima, Fioriolli, Padula, & Pumi, 2018 ). The Food and Agriculture Organization ( FAO, 2020a ) stated that COVID-19 is affecting agriculture in two crucial ways, namely in terms of the supply of and demand for food, which are directly related to food security, which is therefore at risk.…”

“…Because the volume of goods to be carried to and from their port is rarely or never equal to the ability of an inland transport, and since the time of loading and unloading a navy does not necessarily correspond to the loading time of the inland mode, the port's distribution function is the storage of goods (de-Lima et al, 2018). All these approach regards the position of a port in the logistical chain, while a port is also a chain comprising consecutive connections in more detail (ship unloading, storage, loading transport, storage transport, and hinterland loading).…”

In the last three decades, in particular, freight and container transport have grown rapidly worldwide. Protectionism, economic growth and the rising global economy have grown tremendously, and container transport has suffered adversely as a result. The issues facing the environment, economics and culture with regards to the sustainability of maritime logistics or transport must be considered. The trade-offs from direct cost of transport and credibility differ according to the trade in the country's goods and logistics, which can reduce potential to diversify among temporary and value-added products in developed countries'. This study aims to conduct a conceptual review of the effects of trade protectionism on logistics transition, port composition, and economic growth. Based on this, this study will propose a framework in which protectionism, logistic transition, port composition and economic growth research can more effectively utilized. However, effects of trade protectionism on logistic transition, port composition, and economic growth, should be further examined using the proposed growth models.

“…Lopes et al [47] indicate that Brazil, even with lower production costs, has a low competitive advantage due to difficulties with product distribution caused by problems in the logistical network. Lima et al [19], studying the impact of the variation in export volumes of soybean to China on the Brazilian port infrastructure, suggest that to reduce the bullwhip effects provoked by the Midwest Producer States it is necessary to design informational and coordination mechanisms to integrate the logistical agents involved in the export process and to invest on infrastructure (storage capacity).…”

Soybean is one of the main sources of protein directly and indirectly in human nutrition, and it is highly dependent on logistics to connect country growers and international markets. Although recent studies deal with the impact of logistics on international trade, this impact in agricultural commodities is still an open research question. Moreover, these studies usually do not consider the influence of all components of the logistics on trade. This paper, therefore, aims at identifying the role of logistics performance in soybean exports among Argentina, Brazil, the US and their trading partners from 2012 to 2018. Using an extended gravity model, we examine whether the indicators of the World Bank Logistics Performance Index (LPI), adopted as a proxy of logistics efficiency, are an important determinant of bilateral soybean trade facilitation. The results lead to the conclusion that it is necessary to analyze the LPI throughout its indicators because they may affect trade differently. The novelty of this article is to provide an analysis of the impact of different logistics aspects on commodity trade, more specifically in the soybean case. Finally, regarding the model results, logistics infrastructure has a positive and significant correlation with soybean trade as supposed in most of the literature.
