Although the second week's revenue fell in relation to the initial week of the month, meat closed the first half of July (1 to 15, ten working days) with the best financial performance of the last 13 months, as it obtained an average daily revenue of US$63.723 million, a value 3.7% and 16% higher than those recorded in, respectively, last June and July 2016.
Given the current volumes projected for the entire month (21 working days), the best performance in relation to the previous month falls only in June, the São Paulo egg producer recovered part of the losses faced in May. In any case, prices still remained below the March-April two-month period. The monthly increase reached 4.8% while in twelve months it reached a slightly lower rate of 2.1%.
At the other end, that is, in retail in São Paulo, there was a reduction of 1.5% in the monthly index. In any case, in the twelve-month evolution, the index was positive at 3.8%.
With a good evolution in egg prices to producers and a drop in retail market prices, there was an improvement in the favorable share for laying poultry farmers: it was 42.3% in May and rose to 45% in June. Compared to June last year, the evolution of retail prices was greater than on the farm. In this way, there was a small loss in the producer's participation.
In July, the average prices reached in the first fortnight indicate a small drop in the poultry farmer's participation, but are still equivalent to more than 43% on retail.bre for chicken meat, which tends to increase close to 7% and approach 367 thousand tons. Pork and beef show expansion rates very close to each other – 3.75% and 3.45%, respectively, which would reach 56 thousand and 103.7 thousand tons, also respectively.
In relation to July 2016, beef is the best prospect. Because the volume now indicated for this July is 26% higher than that of a year ago. For chicken and pork, the forecast volumes imply an increase of 14.17% and 7.17%, respectively.
