Ukraine, Santa Catarina, the United States and Canada followed. Embrapa Suínos e Aves, which represents Brazil in the network, produced a Portuguese report with cost estimates per kilogram of live pig.

## Why it matters

Lower production costs strengthen Brazil's competitiveness in pork and imply sustained demand for feed grains and meal from Mato Grosso's hog sector. The results have limited near-term price impact on corn or soybean meal.
