This will be due to slower yield growth owing to lower input usage from a weaker currency, and limited developed in GMO seed plantings. The sugar sector also presents interesting growth opportunities, mainly thanks to renewed investment and improved technologies. The country's livestock sector will see greater growth over the coming years owing to lower grain prices and increasing demand from a more affluent population. We believe the country's main agribusiness companies, AFGRI , Rainbow Chicken and Astral Foods , will reap the benefit from lower global grain prices and therefore lower feed prices.
