Public auctions for the purchase or removal of corn stock carried out by CONAB (the national food supply company) should start in September, in installments, and in several regions closer to the delivery hubs defined by the entity. Tereza Cristina, the Minister of Agriculture, Livestock and Food Supply has already forwarded to the Ministry of Economy the proposal to purchase up to 110,000 tons, enough to meet the demand of the Over-the-Counter Program (ProVB) by the end of the year. The program benefits small animal breeders, including aquaculturists.
With the publication of Provisional Measure 1.064 on August 17 of this year, it was decided to purchase up to 200,000 tons of corn annually, at market conditions, to meet the program’s needs. The announcement was made by President Jair Bolsonaro and by Minister Tereza Cristina on August 17th.
