In the first half of 2024, Paraná saw a significant increase in egg and egg product exports, with a 48.2% growth to a total of 5,515 tons, making it the best performance since 1997. These exports were delivered to 36 countries, led by Mexico, Senegal, and South Africa, generating revenue of US$ 23.3 million, up by 24.5% from the previous year. As the second largest egg exporter in Brazil, Paraná contributes significantly to the country's total egg exports, which although decreasing by 22.4% to 22,925 tons, still maintained a value of US$ 83.2 million. The majority of Brazil's egg production is consumed domestically, highlighting the growing international demand as a key achievement for the sector.
