Although Brazil's presence in Africa is relatively small compared with that of deep-pocketed China, its projects fit well with the continent's current economic development, particularly technical cooperation in the farming sector, food security, biofuel production and social programs to eradicate poverty.
Ingawa uwepo wa Brazil barani Afrika ni mdogo ukilinganisha na ule wa China iliyoingia kwenye mfuko wa kina, miradi yake inaendana vyema na maendeleo ya sasa ya kiuchumi ya bara hilo, hasa ushirikiano wa kiufundi katika sekta ya kilimo, usalama wa chakula, uzalishaji wa nishati ya mimea na programu za kijamii za kutokomeza umaskini.
