World Angus Secretariat 2027: Brazil to welcome the global Angus community
Angus Australia members are encouraged to mark their calendars for the World Angus Secretariat 2027, taking place in Brazil from 8–19 May 2027, offering a unique opportunity to explore Angus genetics, innovation and beef production on an international stage.
Hosted by the Brazilian Angus Association, the 12-day event will bring together Angus breeders, researchers, industry leaders and beef producers from around the world to exchange knowledge, explore new technologies and strengthen connections across the global Angus community.
Under the theme Global Genetics. A Brazilian Evolution, the 2027 program will showcase how Angus genetics have adapted and evolved across Brazil’s diverse climates, environments and production systems.
For Australian Angus breeders, the event presents an opportunity to gain firsthand insights into international breeding practices, genetic improvement, commercial beef production and emerging approaches to sustainability.
Exploring Angus production in Brazil
The program combines technical property tours, research visits, industry conferences, an Angus show and an elite genetics auction, providing participants with a comprehensive look at Brazil’s Angus industry.
Beginning in São Paulo, the journey will take delegates through a range of production environments, highlighting the role of genetics, management, nutrition and technology in producing high-performing Angus cattle.
Technical visits will include leading Brazilian cattle operations and research facilities, with opportunities to explore genetic selection, reproductive technologies, crossbreeding systems, carcase quality, feed efficiency and sustainable production practices.
A particular focus will be the development of ‘Tropical Angus’, demonstrating how Angus genetics have been used and adapted to deliver productivity and carcase quality under challenging environmental conditions.
