Market recovery continues to evolve, but the reopening of China is still awaited. The increase in exports to other important markets that have recently reopened signals a favorable scenario for the sector.

“The negative impacts resulting from the case of Avian Influenza registered this year here in Rio Grande do Sul are being partially and rapidly reversed, which demonstrates the importance of our production and exports to the world,” said José Eduardo dos Santos, Executive President of the Poultry Organization of RS (Asgav / Sipargs).

Egg Industry and Production in Rio Grande do Sul:

Egg sales fell by -9.31% in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, representing a decrease of 438 tons. This was not reflected in revenue, which increased by 37.51%, reaching US$16 million in sales from January to September of this year.

A considerable increase in egg exports was observed in the state of Rio Grande do Sul in September of this year, from 199.6%, compared to the same month last year.

The resumption of the Chilean market represents a considerable boost for egg exports from Rio Grande do Sul.
