Global Outlook on the Meat Sector: Insights from Colombia and Brazil

In an increasingly competitive global context, livestock production has established itself as a strategic sector for food security, economic development, and the international projection of Latin America. With this purpose, SaenzFety and Almagan are organizing the Virtual Seed Sale, a digital space of reference for cattle producers, which this year will feature a renowned international guest:

📌 João Antônio Fagundes Neto
🎓 MBA in Agribusiness – Degree in Economics
🇧🇷 Founder of Grupo Raça Agro – Brazil

His keynote lecture, “Global Outlook on the Meat Sector”, promises to deliver a strategic vision of where the global meat market is heading and how producers can adapt to new international demands.

The Institutional Support of FEDEGAN

The event is supported by the Colombian Federation of Cattle Ranchers (FEDEGAN), the most representative organization in Colombia’s livestock sector. FEDEGAN plays a central role in the country’s politics and economy:

• Manages the National Livestock Fund, which finances health and vaccination programs.

• Represents more than 500,000 livestock families who depend directly on this activity.

• Actively contributes to the design of public policies on foreign trade, sustainability, and rural development.

• Works to position Colombia as a premium beef exporter, with impeccable sanitary status and global recognition.

FEDEGAN’s institutional weight ensures this is not just a technical lecture, but a high-level political and economic forum, aligned with the sector’s strategic challenges.

An International Perspective: Connecting Brazil and Colombia

The keynote speaker, João Antônio Fagundes Neto, brings the expertise of Grupo Raça Agro from Brazil, a strategic partner of SGM Seeds, a company recognized in several markets for its innovation and quality in tropical forage seeds.

Brazil and Colombia share common challenges and opportunities in livestock production:

• Both countries have large-scale cattle herds and natural conditions to lead production in Latin America.

• They face the need to comply with international standards of sustainability and traceability.

• They play a decisive role in the export of beef and dairy products to demanding markets such as the United States, Europe, and Asia.

The union of these two agribusiness giants in a single virtual space offers producers a unique perspective on how to remain competitive on the global stage.

An Opportunity for Producers and Entrepreneurs

The Virtual Seed Sale goes beyond innovation in forage genetics: it is an educational and networking forum that allows participants to:

• Gain firsthand knowledge of global trends in the meat market.

• Identify opportunities for export and differentiation in premium beef.

• Understand how sustainability and productivity have become decisive factors for competitiveness.

• Connect with leading institutions and companies in Colombia and Brazil.

This meeting reaffirms that Latin American livestock must work in alliance and international cooperation to strengthen its global presence.

An Unmissable Event

The meat sector is undergoing a transformation driven by new consumer demands, environmental requirements, and international trade dynamics. In this context, having the insights of an international expert and the institutional backing of FEDEGAN makes this lecture a unique opportunity for producers, entrepreneurs, and cattle ranchers.
