Brazil animal feed and pet food industry developments

Overview

Brazil is seeing developments in its animal nutrition and feed sectors. Industry projections from the Pet South America trade fair suggest the country could double its pet food exports over the next five years, potentially reaching 200,000 tons annually. While high tax burdens remain a challenge, Brazil’s position as the world’s second-largest pet food producer is supported by a large domestic pet population and low dependence on imported raw materials.

In the broader agricultural sector, the government has sanctioned Law 15.490/2026 to expand public animal feed stocks through the Counter Sales Program (ProVB). The law expands the eligible products from corn to include sorghum, cottonseed, soybean meal, and corn meal. This legislation aims to assist small-scale breeders and family farmers by allowing the National Supply Company (Conab) to conduct public auctions to form stocks, with the previous annual purchase cap of 200,000 tons being abolished.
