Feed & Food Market: Fenagra drives business, technical knowledge exchange and sector trends
The event will have 250 exhibiting companies and will host technical congresses promoted by partner associations ABRA, CBNA, SBOG and UBRABIO.
From May 12 to 14, 11 am–7 pm, at Distrito Anhembi, in São Paulo, Fenagra – International Feed & Food Agribusiness, Technology and Processing Trade Show – will take place. The event is the largest Feed & Food agribusiness gathering in Latin America, bringing together the main players in Pet Food, Animal Nutrition, Rendering, Biodiesel, Oils and Fats.
In addition to the business trade show, Fenagra will host technical congresses and seminars promoted by associations representing the sector. They are: ABRA (Brazilian Association of Recycling), CBNA (Brazilian College of Animal Nutrition), SBOG (Brazilian Society of Oils and Fats) and UBRABIO (Brazilian Union of Biodiesel and Biokerosene), which reinforces the technical and strategic nature of the gathering.
In its 19th edition, Fenagra will have 250 exhibiting companies, both domestic and international, from the United States, Russia, Australia, countries in Europe and Asia, as well as South America and Saudi Arabia. In all, two pavilions will be occupied, totaling 26 thousand m² of exhibition space.
“Fenagra consolidates itself as a strategic environment for business generation, attracting investment, professional development and expanding networking. We expect to receive approximately 14 thousand visitors and congress attendees, with a volume of business that should exceed R$ 1 billion,” says Daniel Geraldes, director of Fenagra.
This year, the program will include nine congresses and about 200 invited speakers, including international experts.
On May 12, the 11th edition of the Technical Dialogue – Animal Recycling Sector will be held, promoted by ABRA – Brazilian Association of Animal Recycling. With free admission, the event will bring together professionals, companies and members to discuss the main challenges and opportunities of the sector. The opening will be led by Pedro Bittar, president of ABRA’s Board of Directors.
The program will be divided into two panels. Panel 1 – “Directions and innovations: the future of the sector under debate” – will address new possibilities for the use of animal-origin meals, based on technology mapping studies. The panel will be led by representatives of the SENAI Institute of Technology in Food and Beverages of Goiás. The “Vision 2045” study, with projections and trends for the short, medium and long term, will also be presented, along with the results of research on the development of biofertilizers, an initiative that broadens opportunities and opens new markets for animal recycling in Brazil.
Panel 2 – “Industry Decarbonization Journey” – will be led by SENAI SP and will discuss one of the most urgent topics on the industrial agenda: decarbonization. The debate will bring experiences and practical paths adopted by companies to reduce emissions and meet the market’s growing sustainability demands. Both panels will be followed by round tables to deepen the debates. ABRA will also have a booth at Fenagra, on Street G – Booth 09. For more information, click here.
On May 13 and 14, the 3rd Biodiesel and Biokerosene (SAF) Forum: Technology and Innovation will take place, promoted by UBRABIO – Brazilian Union of Biodiesel and Biokerosene. The event will bring together representatives of government, industry, academia and civil society to discuss, in a practical and focused way, the sector’s next steps. The program will be divided into debate tables and presentations of cases from the Eco+ Foundation and S&P GLOBAL, as well as on the Impacts of the New Tax Legislation for the Biofuels Sector.
In this edition, the highlight will be the Roadmap for replacing fossil fuels and, especially, the advance of the international biofuels market, which drives demand and raises standards of traceability and environmental performance. Other topics covered will be: Alternative Uses of Biodiesel: machinery, generator sets, road and waterway transport; Biodiesel Complex: biorefinery and co-products; Industrial technological evolution of diesel and biodiesel and International Biofuels Market.

On May 14, it will be the turn of the Oils and Fats Processing Seminar, held by SBOG – Brazilian Society of Oils and Fats. The gathering will bring together professionals from Brazil and Latin America to discuss current topics in the sector, focusing on technical knowledge, practical experience, cutting-edge research and multidisciplinary debates that directly impact the processing of oils and fats.
The program includes presentations by CPM Crown Iron Works and DSM-Firmenich, which will highlight sustainable technologies aimed at producing oils and fats with higher quality and lower environmental impact, and by the organizations ABIOVE (Brazilian Association of Vegetable Oil Industries) and ASAGA (Asociación Argentina de Grasas y Aceites). ASAGA representatives will address the use of alternative solvents to hexane and strategies for reducing solvent consumption in extraction plants.
Dr. Leticia Maria Zanphorlin, of LNBR/CNPEM, will present advances in biocatalysts and microbial platforms for converting fatty acids into hydrocarbons, emphasizing the role of biofactories in the bioeconomy and the challenges for the industrial application of these technologies. Prof. Dr. Adriana Pavesi Arisseto Bragotto, of FEA/UNICAMP, will address contaminants in the processing of oils and fats, highlighting sources of contamination and mitigation strategies along the production chain, with a focus on chemical safety and regulatory compliance, and Dr. Renato Grimaldi, FEA/UNICAMP, will discuss the reduction of saturated fats as a driver of innovation in vegetable oil processing, highlighting the challenge of developing healthier products without compromising industrial performance and shelf life.
