Pig farming in Mato Grosso has seen a significant increase in exports, with a 173% rise in September compared to the same period last year, according to the Mato Grosso Institute of Agricultural Economics (Imea). To capitalize on this growth, producers are focusing on improving product quality through training, with the National Service of Rural Learning of Mato Grosso (Senar / MT) offering two courses for the pig production chain. The sector expects this positive trend to continue for the next two years. Swine farmer Valdomir Ottonelli and Custódio Rodrigues, the executive director of the Association of Swine Breeders of the State of Mato Grosso (Acrismat), are optimistic about the future of pig farming in the region.
