Financial Instruments And Fair Value Measurements [Abstract]  
Hierarchy Levels that may be Used to Measure Fair Value The fair value standard describes three levels within its hierarchy that may be used to measure fair value.
LevelDescriptionFinancial Instrument (Assets / Liabilities)
Level 1Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Exchange traded derivative contracts.

Marketable securities in active markets.
Level 2Observable inputs, including adjusted Level 1 quotes, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are less active than traded exchanges and other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Exchange traded derivative contracts (less liquid markets).

Readily marketable inventories.

Over-the-counter ("OTC") commodity purchase and sale contracts.

OTC derivatives whose value is determined using pricing models with inputs that are generally based on exchange traded prices, adjusted for location specific inputs that are primarily observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Marketable securities in less active markets.
Level 3Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are a significant component of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Assets and liabilities whose value is determined using proprietary pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques.

Assets and liabilities for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
Schedule of Assets and Liabilities Accounted for at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The following table sets forth, by level, the Company’s assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis.

(1)     These receivables and payables are hybrid financial instruments for which Bunge has elected the fair value option as they are derived from purchases and sales of agricultural commodity products in the normal course of business.
(2)     Unrealized gains on derivative contracts are generally included in Other current assets. There were $32 million and $49 million included in Other non-current assets at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. There were $1 million and $2 million included in Assets held for sale at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
(3)    Other includes the fair values of marketable securities and investments in Other current assets and Other non-current assets.
(4)    Unrealized losses on derivative contracts are generally included in Other current liabilities. There were $158 million and $49 million included in Other non-current liabilities at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. There were zero and $1 million included in Liabilities held for sale at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Reconciliation of Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) The tables below present reconciliations for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. These instruments were valued using pricing models that management believes reflect the assumptions that would be used by a marketplace participant.
