Oportunidades de investimento Setor agroalimentar no Brasil
Summary
This report by the Climate Bonds Initiative examines investment opportunities in Brazil's agri-food sector through the lens of low-carbon transition frameworks. It highlights that agriculture and land use drive nearly 75% of Brazil's gross GHG emissions and introduces the 'Five Principles' and 'Five Hallmarks' as tools for investors to verify the credibility of corporate transition plans. Through case studies of Syngenta and Amaggi, the report illustrates the gap between public sustainability commitments and the need for detailed financial strategies and absolute emission reductions. It also reviews Brazilian financial instruments like LCAs and CRAs, noting a potential green investment opportunity of US$ 163 billion by 2030, while warning of regulatory pressures from the EU's Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).
Key insights
- Brazil is the world's seventh largest emitter of greenhouse gases (GHG), with gross emissions of 2.16 GtCO2 in 2020. Land use changes (46%) and agriculture (27%) are the primary sources, together accounting for nearly 75% of the country's gross emissions. Within agriculture, livestock is responsible for over 80% of emissions, with bovine production contributing more than 90% of that total.
- The Climate Bonds Initiative provides a screening toolkit consisting of five 'Principles for Transition' and five 'Hallmarks' to help investors identify credible corporate transition plans. These tools shift the focus from evaluating individual projects to a holistic assessment of the entire corporate structure, ensuring goals are science-based, aligned with a 1.5°C warming limit, and supported by transparent governance and reporting.
