Coming soon is the International Poultry and Swine Show (SIAVS) to be held from August 9-11, 2022, at Anhembi venue in the city of São Paulo, Brazil.

An article written in Spanish by Puerto Rican journalist Ronald Ávila-Claudio from BBC News Mundo on how the broiler industry started to develop, as well as the Chicken of Tomorrow contest in the U.S., caught my attention.

Roasted chicken is far more common in Latin America than everyone else outside the region might think. 

I never thought about how many people would be willing to give up animal protein as a consequence of climate concerns. 

While gathering data for Latin American production and consumption of chicken and eggs in 2021, I admit I was surprised by the annual per capita egg consumption of Mexico reported by the National Poultry Producers association – 409 eggs per person!

Mexico is the second largest chicken producer in Latin America and 7th in the world.

The 10^th World Poultry Day – established by the International Poultry Council (IPC) in 2012 − came and went almost unnoticed this last May 10, 2022 in Latin America (and maybe elsewhere).

When we think about Latin American poultry exporters, the first country that comes to our mind is Brazil, for obvious reasons. 

While highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) outbreaks have sprung up in several U.S. states, among other places in the world, one might wonder about the status of bordering countries.

Being part of the poultry industry, even a journalist or writer like me, makes you prone to fake businesses.

We are in a slow week in Latin America and all other Catholic countries – the Holy Week, right before Easter Week. 

Brazil and Mexico are the two largest poultry industries in Latin America.
