Abstract: The present study aims to analyze the determinants of Brazilian papaya exports, considering countries in Europe, South America, and North America that represent almost 99% of the total exports of the fruit from 2002 to 2017. For that, the gravitational model was used, which consists of the application of the panel data methodology, and the per capita incomes of Brazil and the variables importing countries, distance, exchange rate, commercial freedom index, international prices were considered, and the binary variables, which correspond to the economic bloc of which the importing country is a part, and the presence of the coast., The results showed that Brazilian papaya exports are explained directly by the product of the economic size of its commercial partners and inversely proportional to the distance that separates them from Brazil. It is also worth mentioning the existence of a direct relationship between this trade flow and international prices, as well as the exchange rate. In addition, lower performances from MERCOSUR and NAFTA countries are observed in Brazilian papaya exports, when compared to European bloc countries.
