Agribusiness leaders contributed the lion's share of financing for President Jair Bolsonaro's re-election campaign, underscoring his close ties with farm interests, while his leftist challenger relied almost exclusively on public party funding.
Individual donors contributed nearly 80% of Bolsonaro's campaign funds, and 33 of his 50 biggest donors had ties to agribusiness, according to a Reuters analysis of data from electoral authority TSE.
