"Of course, China manipulates it's currency and it (would be) better that the currency could fluctuate," said Mantegna.
"I don't know if in the United States it's exactly a manipulation. It's the quantitative policy that goes to an undervalution of the dollar," he said.
China and the USA are important markets for Brasil's agricultural products.
