The FAO Food Price Index reached 130.1 points in August 2025, the highest level since February 2023, according to Reuters.

The increase was mainly driven by higher prices for meat, sugar, and vegetable oils, which offset declines in cereals and dairy products. This trend reignites concerns about global food security and pressures producing countries to pursue greater production efficiency and supply stability.

Market Fluctuations and the Role of Smart Nutrition

Volatility in international prices highlights the need for strategies to mitigate risks in the field. This is where smart nutrition comes into play:

• Greater efficiency in fertilizer use.

• Reduced losses during transportation and storage.

• Productivity gains without expanding cultivated areas.

With technologies like Anticaking, Antidusting, and Mega Micro, Adfert helps farmers turn price instability into a competitive advantage, delivering consistency even in challenging scenarios.

Productivity with Sustainability Starts at the Factory

In an environment of rising global food prices, pressure grows for practices that reconcile large-scale production with social and environmental responsibility.

At Adfert, this commitment starts at the factory with:

• The use of biodegradable and renewable raw materials.

• Processes that reduce environmental impact.

• Products that extend fertilizer shelf life and increase efficiency.

This approach ensures that the growth of Brazilian agribusiness remains aligned with the demands of international buyers who are increasingly focused on sustainability criteria.

Facing Market Instability with Agronomic Intelligence

Fluctuations in global prices can directly impact the margins of producers and exporters. To safeguard results, it is essential to invest in agronomic efficiency.

Adfert’s additives ensure fertilizers reach the field in optimal condition, preserving nutrients and reducing operational costs. This allows farmers to remain competitive in both domestic and international markets, even in the face of price instability.

Global Outlook and Brazil’s Role in Food Security

Brazil remains one of the world’s leading food and agricultural suppliers. Amid rising prices, the country’s responsibility to ensure stable and competitive supply grows.

Innovative solutions from Adfert are decisive: greater efficiency, less waste, and more sustainable use of fertilizers.

Conclusion: Efficiency Is the New Competitive Advantage

The global rise in food prices underscores the importance of combining technology, productivity, and sustainability. Expanding production must go hand in hand with innovation to ensure stability and competitiveness in the international market.

Adfert is ready to support this movement, offering additives that boost field results, reduce losses, and strengthen Brazilian agribusiness as a global leader.
