Integrate the production across borders and diverting USD out of the country. Those two forces act in tandem. Exporters of food and materials, keep their export earnings out without bringing it in which means sending to Central Bank which then would need to print BRL to flood the economy increasing money supply.

Integration of production to face the TJ's brothers: Case in point Thyssenkrupp: It is the case of taking that what the US had last century arond the Great Lakes and bring it to a gigantic scale.

Produce steel slabs (5milion ton a year 2 to the US and 3 to Europe) in Rio and send to Alabama. There "The facility will include a hot strip mill which will be used primarily to process slabs from ThyssenKrupp's new steel plant in Brazil."

There in the US the steel is used to make Mercedes and VW cars.
"A VW spokesman said that a decision on the location of the plant had yet to be taken and that Alabama, Tennessee and Michigan remained in the running. A decision is expected by July 21, the spokesman said.

Daimler's Mercedes Car Group has had a manufacturing plant in Alabama for years and ThyssenKrupp, an important supplier of automotive steel, is also opening a production facility in the state."
