Iran to Replace Ukraine With Brazil to Supply Animal Feed

Brazil will replace Ukraine as a supplier of raw materials for animal feed production and measures have been taken to start importing from the South American country in the coming months, says the CEO of the National Union of Agricultural Products of Iran.
“The conflict between Ukraine and Russia, as well as the global drought, has made the supply of livestock and poultry feed a challenge for almost all countries, including ours which has prompted officials to take measures to prevent a shortage of animal feed in the domestic market,” Mojtaba Aali was also quoted as saying by ILNA.
The official said the government began talks with the Brazilian side more than six months ago to prepare the grounds for barter trade for expansion of bilateral commercial interactions.
