Brazil Expanding Agricultural Representation Abroad

Brazil has decided to increase the number of agricultural attachés in diplomatic missions from 29 to 40, sending 11 new representatives to various regions around the world. This decision, signed by President Luiz ⁢Inácio ⁢Lula ‍da Silva, marks the highest‌ number of agricultural attachés sent overseas since the position was first established in 2008. ⁤The specific countries where these‍ new attachés will be located have not yet been determined and will be defined through a joint ordinance ⁣from Brazil’s ministries‍ of agriculture and​ foreign affairs.

The role of‌ these agricultural attachés‍ is crucial as they serve as advisors ⁤in Brazilian diplomatic representations and are responsible for identifying trade, investment, and‌ cooperation opportunities for the Brazilian agribusiness sector. They maintain continuous communication with key stakeholders such as public and private sector representatives, civil society influencers,⁣ and academic institutions to ‌promote Brazil’s‍ interests in agriculture ⁤on an international scale.
