Festa do Boi 2026 focuses on agribusiness exports and environmental action

The 2026 Festa do Boi event in Rio Grande do Norte features a focus on agribusiness development and environmental responsibility. The 'Motores do Desenvolvimento' seminar, held during the event's opening, brings together industry leaders and specialists to discuss expanding the state's agricultural exports to international markets, including China, the United States, Oceania, and the Middle East.

Discussions also center on the potential impact of the Mercosul-European Union trade agreement on local production. Meanwhile, the water utility company Caern is participating in the festival by providing free drinking water to visitors and hosting an environmental awareness initiative. This initiative encourages the responsible disposal of electronic waste, such as broken cell phones, cables, and small appliances, to promote recycling and reduce environmental impacts.
