Nova Realidade Covid-19 após 1 ano

Overview KPMG The economic crisis caused by the Covid-19 pandemic brought several challenges to the world. For the agribusiness, however, it also brought growth opportunities. Although demand for food continues to grow, what has really changed is the consumer's watchful eye. Consumer are now focused on good socio-environmental and governance practices. In this sense, the Brazilian agribusiness sector, in addition to remarkably resisting the setbacks caused by the pandemic, has strategically positioned itself as a net food exporter. The sector's resilience and possibility of good performance can be demonstrated by the growth of its share in GDP, not only in terms of value but also in terms of participation. In the year 2020, Brazilian agribusiness registered a record income growth of 24.3%. Increasing its share of Brazil's GDP to 26.6% against 20.5% in the previous year. For 2021, expectations point to further growth. In the first quarter of the year, agricultural exports show a growth of 6% (Cepea/Esalq-USP and CNA). The challenges for Brazilian agribusiness are to continue growing, preserving profitability, sustainability and creating new paradigms of trust with consumers. To do so, the sector relies on technologies not only related to traditional farming technologies but ever more also on digital technologies. The digital transformation of agribusiness has promoted disruptive changes in the agri-food value chain, which has the consumer as its focal point. Connectivity, agricultural 4.0, back office 4.0, predictive digital solutions, digital platforms, traceability technologies, innovation HUBs are being diffused in the agribusiness sector in Brazil. 5G technology, changes in rural credit and the new regulation of credit payments in Brazil are potential accelerators of the positive agendas of agribusiness in the country. © 2021 KPMG Auditores Independentes, a Brazilian entity and a member firm of the KPMG global organization of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Limited, a private English company limited by guarantee.
