Revenue from poultry genetics exports totaled US$ 129.425 million in the first half, a number 61% higher than that recorded in the same period last year, with US$ 80.543 million.

Considering only the month of June, there was a 44.7% increase in sector shipments, with 1,579 thousand tons in the sixth month of 2023, compared to 1,091 thousand tons in 2022.

Largest importer of poultry genetics from Brazil, Mexico was the destination of 8,912 thousand tons between January and June, a number 260% higher than that registered in the same period of 2022. Next are Senegal, with 1,572 thousand tons (-37%), Paraguay, with 1,406 thousand tons (+6%) and Peru, with 1,352 thousand tons (+2099%).

"There has been a change in the demand for poultry genetics products from Brazil, which have now gained greater relevance in Latin American nations. The sharp increase is proof of the importers' confidence in the quality and biosecurity of poultry farming in Brazil", assesses the president of ABPA, Ricardo Santin.
