The Brazilian government has undertaken an ambitious program to reduce dependence on imported petroleum. Existing hydroelectric power provides 90% of the nation's electricity. The government also plans to build 19 more nuclear plants by the year 2020. Brazil's industries range from automobiles, steel and petrochemicals to computers, aircraft, and consumer durables. Brazil has a diverse and sophisticated services industry as well. Proven mineral resources are extensive. Large iron and manganese reserves are important sources of industrial raw materials and export earnings. Deposits of nickel, tin, chromite, uranium, bauxite, beryllium, copper, lead, tungsten, zinc, gold, and other minerals are exploited. Agribusiness contributes to Brazil's trade balance, in spite of trade barriers and subsidizing policies adopted by the developed countries. The importance given to the rural producer takes place in the shape of the agricultural and cattle-raising plan and through another specific subsidy program geared towards family agriculture,which guarantees financing for equipment and cultivation and encourages the use of new technology. Brazil has the largest cattle herd in the world, with 198 million heads,responsible for exports of more than US$1 billion/year.
