THE GLOBAL
VALUE CHAIN
The Brazilian poultry and pork production value chain is robust and relies on
a high degree of integration between its 8 main links: Inputs; Genetic Houses;
Integrated Producers; Agroindustries; Certification Bodies; Transportation;
Domestic and Foreign Markets, and Consumers (illustrated on the following
pages).
The start of the chain --the first link of the production process - lies in the
field, from where the main inputs are sourced, such as corn and soybeans,
which are fundamental elements for the production of feed that will later
become the animals' nutrition.
The integration system is the next link in the chain, a unique feature of the
Brazilian production model, which is based on a partnership between integrated
producers and the agroindustry, ensuring the production of standardized quality
products and connecting small producers to the global agribusiness sector.
Further along the chain, there are two extremely important links: the genetic
houses and the certifying companies. The genetic houses, responsible for
animal genetics, are essential to promote an efficient production system and
to ensure high quality end products, by means of the wide-ranging use of
technology, innovation, and knowledge.
The Certifying Bodies also play an important role. They reinforce good
agricultural and production practices, and guarantee traceability and reliability
to products that supply both the domestic and foreign markets. Certifications
such as GlobalGap, BRC, IFS, and AloFree are available for Brazilian poultry and
pork production chains.
There is also an extremely important project developed by halal product
certifiers. Focusing on the Islamic community, this certification is essential to
meet the requirements of partnerships established with several markets. No
wonder Brazil is today the largest exporter of halal animal protein in the world!
Sustainability is a value instilled in the entire production chain and it is
demonstrated in several actions implemented by the Brazilian poultry and
pork production sector. From the planting of grains
as inputs up to the table of millions of consumers,
national producers and agribusinesses are committed
to continuous improvement, in an effort to promote
an increasingly healthier and more efficient
production.
The transportation link, which is mainly operated by
road and sea, delivers the inputs to the farms, the
animals to the slaughterhouses, and the products to
the points of sale of both Brazilian and international
markets, so that end consumers may enjoy tasty,
healthy, and safe products.
The poultry and pork production chain generates
great wealth for the Brazilian economy. In 2021,
for instance, the Gross Value of Production (GVP)
of chicken and pork surpassed BRL 140 billion,
accounting for 12% of the total agribusiness GVP.
Between 2010 and 2021, the GVP generated by
chicken production increased by 54%, while that of
pork production increased by 46%.
Furthermore, the Brazilian poultry and pork
production sectors not only boost the economy of
the entire country - including regions further from
the large metropolitan centers - but also generate
thousands of jobs where their facilities are located.
Altogether, these sectors generate about 4 million
direct and indirect jobs, with 2/3 of the total number
of jobs created by the poultry farming industry and
1/3 by the pig farming industry.
