Oilseeds are edible seeds with high nutritional value, among them are chestnuts, walnuts and peanuts. According to the International Nut Council (INC), the search for increased quality of life and healthier eating habits has been stimulating the consumption of nuts, chestnuts and dried fruits, which have increased globally year after year.
Brazil has several options for oilseeds whose plantations are concentrated mainly in the North, Northeast and Midwest regions of the country. This variety has been attracting consumers from all over the world and making Brazilian exports set new records.
According to official data made available by the Brazilian Government, the main destinations for our chestnuts, walnuts and peanuts are Russia, Netherlands, United States, Algeria, Ukraine and Canada. Recently, after a series of tests and investigations, China also granted authorization for Brazilian companies to export peanuts to the Asian giant, thus opening up another important market for the brazilians companies to operate.
