The Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply reported that the Arab country has approved Brazil\u2019s International Sanitary Certificate model for the export of apiculture products (honey, propolis and wax).<\/p>\n<p>The information was made public by the Brazilian Ministry on Monday (19). The latter believes the new development to be a result of its improved rapport with the Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA), via Brazil\u2019s agricultural attach\u00e9 in the Arab country, Marcelo Pinto. The Brazilian Ministry expects revenue from exports to reach as much as USD 4.43 million a year.<\/p>\n<p>Saudi Arabia imported USD 66.44 million worth of apiculture products from the world in 2017. Brazil shipped out USD 128.1 million in said goods during that year, having accounted for 6.7% of exports worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>The Brazilian Agriculture Ministry had released a statement last October, during a technical mission to Saudi Arabia led by its Agriculture and Livestock Defense secretary Lu\u00eds Rangel, that talks with the SFDA had moved forward. \u201cIt\u2019s another market that opens up to Brazil. This helps diversify the export portfolio and increase Brazil\u2019s relevance in international agribusiness,\u201d Agriculture minister Blairo Maggi was quoted by the Ministry as saying.<\/p>\n<p>Brazil\u2019s International Relations Agribusiness secretary Odilson Ribeiro e Silva said the next step is for the Department of Inspection of Products of Animal Origin (Dipoa) to supply a list of Brazilian establishments that are willing to sell apiculture products to Saudi Arabia, meeting the requirements of the Certificate at hand. Last year saw USD 1.92 billion in apiculture products exported, not including trade within the European Union, which amounted to USD 576.58 million.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by Gabriel Pomerancblum<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-204696\">Lisa Ducret\/DPA \/AFP<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture reported that the Arab country has approved the International Sanitary Certificate model for apiculture products from Brazil.
