Which countries rely on commodity exports? The Global South predominantly exports commodities, with a focus on agriculture products in green, energy exports in blue, and mineral exports in red. Despite their importance, commodity prices are volatile due to factors like weather hazards and speculation, which are beyond their producers' control. Additionally, commodity production requires less labor and is less intensive in technology than industrial goods. The specialization in commodities thus renders countries vulnerable to external factors related to the global economy. Finally, natural resources and primary goods have less value-added compared to industrial production. #economics #business #politicaeconomy #trade #unctad #exports #commodity #technology Source: UNCTAD Stat.
