Corn

The Essential Cereal for Poultry and Livestock Farming

High quality corn for poultry and livestock farming

Corn is one of the most important cereals in the world, and in Brazil, it plays a fundamental role in animal feed, especially in poultry and livestock farming.

Corn is one of the most nutritious foods available. Whether eaten alone or as an ingredient in other products, it is an important source of energy for humans and animals.

Benefits of Corn for Animals and Industry

Corn is highly nutritious, rich in carbohydrates and energy, and is essential for feeding poultry, pigs and cattle. In addition, it is widely used in the human food industry, such as in the production of flours, oils and snacks.

Corn is a crop that requires a lot of water. However, it can be grown in regions where rainfall ranges from 250 mm to 5,000 mm per year, and the amount of water consumed by the plant during its cycle is around 600 mm.

Our selection and logistics processes guarantee high-quality corn, with fast and safe delivery throughout Brazil. We prioritize sustainability and ethics at all stages of the production chain.
