What is specific to Brazil
Brazil is one of the few markets where importing basic equipment rarely pays. Domestic manufacturing of feeders, drinkers, cages and silos is competitive, so imports make sense mainly for controllers, hatchery equipment and processing lines where tolerance and spare-part support matter.
Lead times run roughly 14–20 weeks domestically and 20–28 weeks when imported equipment is in the scope. Plan placement dates against the longer of the two, not the average.
