Russian recognition of Brazil’s sanitary status reinforces international confidence in agricultural defense, occurs after OMSA certification and adds to agendas on exports, fish, nuts, fertilizers, and promotion of Brazilian beef in Moscow during official Mapa mission

The Brazilian agribusiness gained momentum on June 10, 2026, when Russia recognized Brazil as a country free of foot-and-mouth disease without vaccination, a decision that reinforces the sanitary agenda.

The recognition was formalized during a mission of the Ministry of Agriculture, with agendas in St. Petersburg, Kirovsk, and Moscow. The delegation was led by Luís Rua.

The decision comes after the OMSA certification in 2025 and adds to the announcement by China.

The program began at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, which brings together authorities, entrepreneurs, and productive sectors. Luís Rua participated in panels on economic relations between Brazil, Russia, and BRICS countries.

There were also meetings with representatives from Uruguay, Uzbekistan, Belarus, and Vietnam. In Moscow, the agenda addressed sanitary cooperation, establishment approvals, agricultural exports, and commercial opportunities.

The bilateral relationship recorded advances, such as the approval of Brazilian fish establishments for the Russian market and the opening for nut exports.

Fertilizers and beef

The mission included a visit to PhosAgro’s phosphate fertilizer operation. The unit produces apatite concentrate, a raw material for fertilizers.

The delegation met with Russian companies in the sector. The discussions reinforced the perception that Brazil is treated as a priority market.

In 2025, bilateral trade exceeded US$ 10 billion for the second consecutive year. Brazil exports meats, coffee, and peanuts, while importing fertilizers and wheat.

In Moscow, the delegation participated in the Brazilian Beef Dinner, promoted by ABIEC and ApexBrasil, to promote beef to Russian importers.

Comment on how this recognition might impact Brazilian agribusiness, external sales of meat, fish, and nuts, fertilizer supply, and commercial relations with Russia, especially after the sanitary advances and agendas carried out in Moscow.

Engineers want to carve through Africa with a giant canal to bring water from the world’s second-largest river to a dying lake on the edge of the Sahara Desert that has already lost 90% of its water.

A giant brown band visible from space, approximately 8,850 kilometers long, connected Africa to America in the Atlantic Ocean, and satellites revealed that it is neither land nor pollution, but the largest accumulation of seaweed in the world, which broke records in 2025.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

In just one cast, fishermen are surprised to capture 14,096 mullets in Bombinhas and close a historic season with 58,000 fish; scene recorded in the Santa Catarina paradise marks the last day of the 2026 season.

The 2014 World Cup left a million-dollar legacy in Itaquera: the Corinthians stadium more than doubled the price per square meter, attracted developers, led to thousands of residential units, and changed the neighborhood, but mobility barriers still hinder the area around the arena.

The world has bet on green hydrogen as the fuel of the future, but now faces the side effect: producing 1 kilogram requires about 9 liters of ultrapure water, and the largest projects on the planet are precisely in the driest regions of the Earth, where water is already scarce for people.

Soviet villagers found a “human figure” with open eyes next to a capsule fallen in the snow and thought they had found a dead cosmonaut, until they discovered it was Ivan Ivanovich, the mannequin that tested the spacecraft before Gagarin became the first man in space.

Brazil delivers a giant dam worth R$ 365.7 million in Rio Grande do Sul, capable of forming an artificial lake with 138 million m³ of water, equivalent to 55,300 Olympic swimming pools and an area larger than 2,500 football fields.
