"This year, the poultry genetics export sector has reinforced its presence in new frontiers in the Americas, especially supporting production centers impacted by outbreaks of Avian Influenza. These are important currencies that also attest to the recognition of these importing nations regarding the health status of our country, since biosecurity is a mandatory point for shipments in this productive segment", highlights the president of ABPA, Ricardo Santin.
