Brazil's ag sector responds to very tough moment with innovation
Summary. Brazil's agriculture sector faces severe economic pressures including high interest rates and low commodity prices, with 8.3% of farmers delinquent on payments. Rather than retreat, the sector diversified export markets and expanded into new regions, growing beef exports 39.9% in 2025. Brazilian agriculture also drives innovation in biofuels and bio-methane production, converting agricultural residues into sustainable energy and animal feed.
