Brazilian poultry exports drop 12% in April
Brazilian poultry exports dropped 12% in April compared to the same
month last year.
External sales were US$229.1 million and 211,500 tonnes were shipped,
representing a reduction in 9.2% in comparison to the same period in 2004. These
figures were disclosed yesterday by the Brazilian Poultry Exporters
Association.
According to the Association's press release, the drop
in exports is a continuation of the decline that started in February, based on
decreased consumer demand because of fears about bird
flu.
