Chile opens market for edible offal from Brazil

The Chilean government has authorized Brazil to export edible offal from poultry, ruminants, and pigs to the country. Exporting these products maximizes the use of slaughtered animals and generates additional revenue for the sector, adding value.

Last year, Chile authorized the import of several Brazilian products, including fresh papaya, turkey, and quail poultry genetic material, among others. Between 2022 and 2023, Brazil's agricultural exports to Chile increased by 6.5%, from US$ 1.76 billion to US$ 1.87 billion. In the first five months of this year, these exports reached US$ 733 million, 51% of which corresponds to the meat sector.
