AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoAgriculture & Health Link: Paraguay’s grain exports are surging: Capeco reports soybean grain exports up to 5.89 million tonnes by end-June 2026 (from 4.11 million tonnes in 2025) and wheat shipments from the 2025 harvest up 30%, boosting foreign-currency earnings—good news for food-system stability and rural livelihoods. Local Wellness Tradition: As Paraguay heads into August’s cold, dry stretch, many people will celebrate Carrulim Day on Aug. 1 with the herbal drink carrulim (caña, rue, and lemon), traditionally taken first thing in the morning; organizers are also staging Carrulim Day events at Mercado 4 in Asunción. Weight-Loss Drug Watch (Regional): Brazil’s Anvisa has approved new semaglutide injection pens, intensifying competition in the weight-loss market; while not Paraguay-specific, it signals how quickly access and pricing pressures can shift across the region.
