Argentina Confirms First Case of Avian Influenza in Industrial Birds. Agriculture Secretary Juan José Bahillo Announced on Tuesday (28) That the Country Needs to Suspend Its Exports of Birds and Poultry Products, Raising Fears That the Disease Could Spread Throughout the Territory.

The case was identified in the province of Rio Negro, an area with low poultry density. However, as a preventive measure, the country’s Food Safety Agency declared a sanitary emergency and suspended exports of birds to avoid a greater impact of the disease.

According to Bahillo, Argentine products remain safe for domestic consumption and the halted exports of birds comply with international regulations. So far, 25 cases of avian influenza among wild birds have been confirmed, and the Argentine poultry industry accounted for about 350 million dollars annually.

Argentines fear the risk of contracting avian influenza. However, SENASA reinforced that this does not occur through the consumption of chicken meat and eggs, as the disease is highly fatal for birds. WHO states that the virus can only be contracted through contact with infected animals.

Brazilian Bird Exports Expected to Increase in 2023, According to USDA Report in Brasília

Brazilian exports of birds (chicken) are set to reach a new record in 2023, with an estimated increase of 3.44% over the record volume of 2022. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) in Brasília, Brazilian exports are expected to reach 4.6 million tons.

Global demand for chicken continues to be strong, and Brazilian producers are benefiting from this. Thus, factors like avian influenza, the war in Ukraine, and the earthquake in Turkey have negatively impacted the global supply of chicken meat.

USDA forecasts that Brazilian production will grow by 2.5% in 2023, reaching 14.825 million tons. Domestic consumption is also on the rise, due to social programs and the increase in the minimum wage. However, the favorable exchange rate also contributes to the success of exports of birds from Brazil.

Catarinense exports of birds reached record levels in January this year, with a 9.4% growth compared to the previous month. The State shipped 95.37 thousand tons and generated a total revenue of 211.39 million dollars.

In contrast, catarinense pork exports suffered a significant decline, with 6.9% less than the previous month. The 50 thousand tons shipped generated 123.21 million dollars — 9.7% less than in December. The top 5 destinations for catarinense exports generated 84.8% of the total revenue for the period, with China and Hong Kong accounting for 59.6% of the shipments.
