The Brazilian real rose to its strongest level since May 2024, at about R$5.10 per dollar, after a two-week US-Iran ceasefire improved global risk sentiment. Analysts attributed the real's outperformance to high Brazilian interest rates, oil exports and the electoral backdrop, even as exchange data showed capital outflows.
A stronger real reduces the local currency cost of imported feed ingredients and fertilizer, while the ceasefire-driven risk rally points to softer energy costs that can ease feed production expenses.
