Output also increased in the states of Ceará (1%), São Paulo (0.6%), Minas Gerais (0.3%) and Rio Grande do Sul (0.2%).<\/p>\n
Of the seven states where output was down, Bahia saw the sharpest decline (-8.6%), due to the power outage in August in the Brazilian Northeast. Output was down 2.2% in the Northeast as a whole.
