Earlier Report Observations

The market volume for pig offal in Brazil expanded consistently from 132.7 thousand tons in 2018 to 226.2 thousand tons in 2023. Initial growth was supported by strong export demand, particularly from China, which encouraged higher production. In 2020, peak pork prices drove investments in pig farming, increasing production capacity and further boosting output. The following year, domestic prices remained high, with a cumulative rise of over 30% in 12 months, sustaining producer incentives and consumer demand.

By 2022, a shift occurred as pork prices fell and exports declined, leading to greater domestic availability and making pig offal more competitive against beef. This resulted in an 11.6% jump in market volume. In 2023, the market stabilized near 226 thousand tons, while technological advances and productivity gains, fueled by Chinese demand, enhanced the product's value. Industry sources also point to potential price recoveries and record meat consumption in Brazil, with pork expected to lead growth, although full data for 2024-2025 is not yet available.
