In a press conference, the Secretary of Commerce and International Relations of MAPA, Luis Rua, shares what was discussed during the two days of the 1st Meeting of the BRICS Agriculture Working Group.

Of the world's 550 million producers, half are in BRICS countries. The group brings together nations that are major producers of grains, meat, and fertilizers, making BRICS a global agricultural powerhouse. The first meeting discussed topics such as digital certification to enhance trade in agricultural products.

After intense negotiations, the 2nd meeting of the Agriculture Working Group closed its activities with consensus for the group’s ministerial declaration. The meeting with the ministers is scheduled for Thursday, April 17, in Brasilia.

The first in-person technical meeting of the BRICS Agriculture Working Group began this Wednesday, March 12, focusing on strategic partnerships between member countries and the promotion of food security. Together, BRICS countries are major producers and consumers of agricultural products. Given this vast potential, Minister of Agrarian Development Paulo Teixeira believes that food insecurity is not inevitable.

Responsible for 42% of global food production, BRICS countries are joining forces to combat hunger, tackle the climate crisis and promote sustainable agriculture. Initiatives by India, Ethiopia, and Brasil show that cooperation and public policies are efficient paths towards food sovereignty.
