Brazil chicken exports to China rise close to 50%
Brazilian chicken exports to
China grew by 49% compared to the same period last year as the Asian
nation imported more meat to deal with an outbreak of African swine
fever (ASF).
China was Brazil's main chicken
export destination last month. By revenue, Brazilian chicken
exporters benefited from higher prices, with sales growing by 27.3%
to $658.9 million.
China's additional demand for
meat has benefited Brazilian meat exporters including JBS and BRF.
Exports to the United Arab
Emirates, where BRF has a strong presence, grew by close to 50%,
while exports to the European Union rose by 26%.
