Although the schedule isn\u2019t defined yet, she will likely visit Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt and Kuwait. She intends to look into introducing new items in Arab markets, like dairy and fruits, and to discuss poultry exports to Saudi Arabia. She spoke on this in an <a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/minister-plans-to-diversify-exports-to-arab-countries\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">exclusive interview with ANBA<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Arab countries are the premier destination for Brazilian animal protein \u2013 beef and poultry \u2013 and the second biggest destination for Brazilian agricultural products. From 2008 to 2019, agribusiness went from 60% to 75% of total exports from Brazil to Arab countries.<\/p>\n<p>Customarily, the best-selling items from Brazil to Arab countries are poultry and beef, sugar, cereals, oilseeds and coffee. From 2009 through 2018, Brazilian agribusiness sales to those countries increased by 2.3% on average per year. In 2018, these exports fetched USD 8.12 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Arab countries took in some 10% of total exports from Brazil in 2018, trailing only China. Arab countries import over half of their food needs, and they rank among the biggest importers of agribusiness products in the world.<\/p>\n<p>The event is free of charge for members and guests.
