“Brazilian egg exports, including fresh and processed products, increased by 57.5% in February, the Brazilian Animal Protein Association (ABPA) said on Wednesday, citing stronger U.S. demand. In total, 2,527 tons were shipped in the second month of the year, compared to 1,604 in the same period last year. Brazilian egg shipments totaled $4.936 million by value, 63.2% higher than in the same period last year. Egg prices hit a record high in the U.S. amid outbreaks of avian flu, forcing the nation to turn to imports and benefiting suppliers in Brazil, which is also the world’s largest chicken exporter.” (03/12/25)
