Brazilian pork exports reached 51 thousand tonnes in November

In revenue, there was a 14.6% decrease, shipments reaching $94.6 million in the eleventh month of 2018, against $110.7 million in the same period last year.

In the first 11 months of 2018, pork exports from Brazil reached 501.thousand tons, a performance 8.7% lower than that reported between January and November 2017. Sales in the period generated revenues of $1.020 billion , a balance of 25.1% lower than the result achieved between January and November last year, with $1.363 billion.

"China's demand continued strong in November, more than three times more than the export flow to this market in the same month last year. In this context, we see the resumption of shipments to Russia which, although at timid levels, signal an immediate demand for pork, considering that the reopening of Russian market for the Brazilian product occurred at the beginning of last month," Ricardo Santin, executive of ABPA, explained.
