Brazil: Market opening in Gabon for corn, sorghum, brachiaria, and soybean seeds

The Brazilian government announces a significant achievement in international agribusiness trade, with Gabon's approval of Brazil's phytosanitary proposal for the export of key agricultural products, including corn, sorghum, brachiaria, and soybean seeds. This approval marks a milestone in Brazilian agribusiness expansion, with Gabon now marking as the 191st market opening for Brazil in 2024, a significant addition to the 269 openings in 61 countries since 2023. This success is attributed to the collaborative efforts between the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock (Mapa) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MRE), and highlights a notable increase in Gabon's imports of Brazilian agribusiness products, reaching over US$49 million from January to September of this year, a figure that surpasses the total imports of the previous year.
