The Brazilian government has concluded sanitary and phytosanitary negotiations that will authorize the export of new products to the Eurasian Economic Union, Peru, and Togo.
In the Eurasian Economic Union, composed of five countries (Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Russia), the opening for corn dried distillers grains (DDG) expands opportunities for the grain production chain. As by-products of the ethanol industry, DDGs are used as an ingredient in animal feed. The Eurasian bloc imported more than $1.4 billion in Brazilian agricultural products in 2025, with emphasis on coffee, animal proteins, and tobacco.
In Peru, a country known for its wide variety of native potatoes, authorization for the export of potato pollen genetic material creates opportunities for cooperation in research, plant breeding, and productive diversification. Peru imported more than $729 million in Brazilian agricultural products in 2025, especially forest products, animal proteins, soy complex items, cereals, and flours and preparations.
In Togo, meanwhile, the opening for live horses intended for breeding creates new opportunities in the animal genetics sector. In 2025, the country imported more than $148 million in Brazilian agricultural products, mainly from the sugar-energy complex, animal proteins, and leather.
With these announcements, Brazilian agribusiness has reached 609 market openings since the beginning of 2023.
These openings are the result of joint efforts by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MRE) and the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock (MAPA).
