Investments in increasing productivity should triple in Brazil

Published 2022년 11월 10일

Tridge summary

Between 1990 and 2022, Brazil's beef cattle industry saw a significant increase in productivity, with meat production twice that of a smaller pasture area, despite a herd growth of 38%. By 2022, the herd is expected to reach 202 million. Investments to boost productivity are projected to increase threefold by 2030, amounting to R$ 28-36 billion annually. However, the industry faces challenges such as rising production costs, higher interest rates, and potential export issues due to health risks, environmental concerns, and questionable economic policy decisions. Despite falling domestic prices since March, consumers have not seen a decrease, as large supermarkets have kept prices stable or increased them.

By 2030, the tendency is for Brazilian ranchers to invest 2.5 to 3 times more per year in increasing productivity, when compared to the amount invested between 2011 and 2020. The amount is estimated between R$ 28 billion and R$ $ 36 billion a year, according to Maurício Palma Nogueira, director of Athenagro and coordinator of the technical expedition that evaluates beef cattle in the country and will be in the field from November 16, sponsored by Ihara and Mosaic Fertilizantes.
