São Bento do Una remains in a prominent position in the national poultry farming scenario and appears as the city with the highest egg production in the Northeast.

The data are part of the Municipal Livestock Survey, released in September by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, which presents a broad overview of the activity in 2024. The municipality registered 171 million dozens during the period and consolidated its presence among the major hubs in the country.

The regional leadership occurs in a year marked by expressive growth in the sector. Brazil reached 5.4 billion dozens, which represents 64.8 billion units.

Municipalities That Lead the Ranking

The survey shows that Santa Maria de Jetibá, in Espírito Santo, produced 346 million dozens and occupies the first position nationally. Next is Bastos, in São Paulo, with 270 million. São Bento do Una follows closely, reaffirming its relevance.

The ranking also includes Primavera do Leste, in Mato Grosso, with 112 million, and Beberibe, in Ceará, with 85 million.

These cities sustain the national volume and help define the pace of the sector, which continues to expand. The performance of São Bento do Una strengthens its position in the Northeast, where it has become a reference.

The Strength of the Flock

The survey also records an increase in the total number of poultry. In 2024, the country reached 1.6 billion animals, nearly eight times the Brazilian population.

The number increased by 1.7% compared to the previous year, with 26.8 million birds added. Of the total, 277.5 million are hens, an increase of 6.8%. Santa Maria de Jetibá leads this breeding, while São Bento do Una maintains an essential role in egg production in the region.

O Estagiário que escreveu essa reportagem citou as outras cidades e respectivos estados, mas omitiu em que estado fica São Bento do Una, como Pernambucano esclareço ao mesmo que São Bento do Una fica no Agreste de Pernambuco.

The Strength of the Flock

In the cold desert of Ladakh, where it hardly rains, engineer Sonam Wangchuk created the ice stupa, a tower that freezes winter water and stores it for irrigating crops in the spring, a simple engineering feat that mimics nature.

Almost 6,000 residents live concentrated along a single street nearly 9 km long in the interior of Poland. Houses form a continuous row, and behind them, narrow agricultural strips emerge, creating one of the most unusual rural patterns in Europe.

Júlia Pimentel, an 11-year-old from Minas Gerais, independently invented a new formula to calculate the square root using simple addition and multiplication, and her method was published in one of the most important mathematical scientific journals in Brazil.

They planted a sea of eucalyptus to produce cellulose, but the monoculture turned into a green desert, dried up springs and rivers, and pushed families out of regions in Minas Gerais and Bahia.

Chinese woman planted trees for decades while sand buried part of her house, received $5,000 from an American in 1999, and helped transform the desert into a forest of 8 million trees in China.

Without her own home and pressured by rent, a 25-year-old bought a small 15-meter boat, gradually renovated the interior by herself, transformed the interior with paint, new flooring, a larger bathroom, and started living on the canals, paying much less per month.

The Atacama Desert, the driest place on Earth, was covered in flowers and turned into a colorful carpet with more than 200 species in the phenomenon called “desert bloom,” when atypical rains awaken seeds that had remained dormant in the soil for many years.
