PH to buy more Brazilian meat
Manila Bulletin
|April 16, 2025
Brazil, the leading world's meat exporter, is expected boost its significantly export market this year due to rising demand from key trading partners, including the Philippines, which is battling the spread of animal diseases in its domestic production.
In a report, the United States Department of Agriculture-Foreign Agricultural Service (USDAFAS) said the Philippines' appetite for beef and pork is vital to the continued growth of the South American nation's poultry industry.
Global beef production this year is anticipated to remain unchanged from 2024 at 61.6 million tons amid falling production in the US and the European Union (EU), which is offset by increases in Brazil, India, and Australia.
Brazil, the world's largest beef exporter, is forecasted to ramp up its cattle production to a record 11.9 million tons or about 19 percent of the expected total volume.
USDA-FAS said global exports will likely hike by one percent this year to 13.1 million tons amid increased production from Brazil, India, and Australia.
