– As one of the great expanding granaries, Brazil will have a new showcase of world exposure for agriculture and livestock.
Minapim by Hernan Valenzuela: Despite all the difficulties that occurred during the time of the pandemic, Brazilian agriculture continues to gain space in the international market. In March, new markets were opened and sales to other locations increased. In this context, a new showcase is now in operation to continue on this aim.
Egypt, authorized 42 Brazilian establishments for the supply of meat, 27 of which were chicken and 15 of beef, and also renewed the qualification of 95 companies (82 of beef and 13 of chicken), in addition to authorizing the importation of beef cattle . Kuwait opened its market for Brazilian beef.
In Asia, China updated the list of 108 establishments authorized to sell fish, an activity that had been paralyzed since 2015. Indonesia deals with an extra import quota of 20 thousand tons of beef, improving the Brazilian participation in this segment, being that Australia is the main meat supplier for that country.
In an innovative action brought by BÄUMLE in partnership with DLG in Germany, new viewing opportunities are opened up to producers in all sectors where Brazil, which already has excellent performance in production, such as sugar cane, coffee and orange, soybeans, tobacco and beef, and corn, a product in which Brazil is the third country in volume of annual production.
According to Minister Tereza Cristina (Agriculture, Livestock and Supply), given the current scenario, some sanitary measures, which often make processes take longer or were even used as trade barriers, “are being left behind”.
The minister has highlighted the importance of the demands that Brazil currently receives from other countries that seek agricultural products and are concerned with a possible shortage of “post-pandemic Coronavirus”. It is the case of Malaysia and Singapore that started a dialogue with the Ministry to resume or increase imports of chicken and beef.
