Resumo: This paper examines the agribusiness influence on Brazilian politics and how it has affected the country’s foreign policy agenda. The method used is discourse analysis. More specifically, we rely on Maarten Hajer’s concept of storylines, developed in his influential book The Politics of Environmental Discourse (1995). The purpose is to analyze how ruralist storylines, reshaped by the agribusiness lobby, has portrayed the Brazilian reality and how they were able to forge consensus about its controversial practices and questionable results. By uncovering how their discursive strategy was produced, we aim to verify which facts and arguments have selectively been exposed, and which ones have been excluded, or even shown in a distorted way. The main results show how these entrenched storylines have molded Brazil’s foreign policy.

El método utilizado es el Análisis del Discurso. Más concretamente, el concepto de líneas narrativas creado por Maarten Hajer, presentado en su influyente libro The Politics of Environmental Discourse (1995). El objetivo es analizar cómo las líneas narrativas ruralistas, readaptadas por el lobby del agronegocio, retratan la realidad brasileña y cómo, a través de ellas, fue posible forjar consensos sobre las controvertidas prácticas del sector, así como sobre sus cuestionables resultados. Al develar cómo se produjo esta estrategia discursiva, pretendemos analizar qué hechos y argumentos fueron expuestos selectivamente y cuáles fueron excluidos o distorsionados. El resultado muestra cómo estas líneas narrativas han moldeado la política exterior de Brasil.Este artigo examina a influência do agronegócio na política brasileira e como isso afetou a agenda de política externa do país. O método utilizado é a Análise do Discurso. Mais especificamente, no conceito de linhas narrativas criado por Maarten Hajer, apresentado em seu influente livro The Politics of Environmental Discourse (1995). O objetivo é analisar como as linhas narrativas ruralistas, readaptadas pelo lobby do agronegócio, retratam a realidade brasileira e como, por meio delas, conseguiu-se forjar consenso sobre as práticas polêmicas do setor, bem como sobre seus resultados questionáveis. Ao desvendar como foi produzida essa estratégia discursiva, pretende-se analisar quais fatos e argumentos foram expostos seletivamente e quais foram excluídos, ou apresentados de forma distorcida.
