"These diseases have a high productive impact, with high mortality rates and significant economic losses."

A primary concern for the CNA is the current lack of contingency protocols within Brazil to manage these specific pathogens if they were introduced. The confederation argues that foreign products must be held to the same rigorous scrutiny as domestic ones.
"The objective is not to restrict international trade, but to ensure that imports meet the same sanitary standards required of Brazilian producers," the CNA stated.
