BRAZIL FEEDS SOME 10% OF WORLD’S POPULATION, RESEARCH FINDS
SAO PAULO, March 4 (Reuters) – Farmers in Brazil fed some 10% of the world’s 7.76 billion population last year, a study released on Thursday by state-run agricultural research agency Embrapa found.
The study focused on Brazil’s grains and oilseeds production as these are considered basic food staples that can be either used for direct human consumption or as animal feed for meat processing, Embrapa’s statement said.
