On Friday May 22, the Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply Minister, Tereza Cristina, announced that Thailand has opened its market to Brazil’s dairy products. The information was released during a webinar on opportunities and perspectives for the agricultural sector during the coronavirus pandemic, promoted by the Engineering Institute.

This brings Brazil up to 60 foreign markets open to its agricultural products since January 2019. Amongst other products Brazil may export are baru nuts to South Korea, melons to China (first Brazilian fruit to be imported by the Asian country), sesame to India, Brazil nuts to Saudi Arabia, and avian genetic material to several countries.

After the coronavirus pandemic is over, the minister expects countries to become more protectionist, closing their markets to foreign products. In order for Brazil to continue expanding its export market opportunities, Tereza Cristina said it needs to invest in the areas of plant and animal health as well as traceability to give greater confidence to importers.  Another point to be overcome, according to the minister, is transportation logistics, with it being necessary to seek ways to make the flow of agricultural production cheaper and more effective.
