> A GlobalSource Partners report says Colombia's economy is slowing, with third-quarter growth of just 1.2 percent, partly due to a truckers' strike that hit agriculture and transport. The report expects the central bank to ease rates as early as January and notes uncertainty around the tax reform and peace deal.

## Why it matters

A weak economy and a truckers' strike that disrupted agricultural transport can weaken local feed demand and raise logistics costs for feed moving within Colombia.
