Minerva more than doubles cattle in feedlots
04/10/2011
It said it had taken this step to compensate for the limited offer of heavy cattle going to slaughter during the dry season.
Minerva raised around 35,000 head of cattle in its three feedlots in 2010, but so far in 2011, it estimates that the three facilities have admitted between 80,000 and 85,000 head.
The three feedlots are in Araguaína, in the state of Tocantins, Rolim Moura in Rondônia and Asunción in Paraguay.
