PRODUCTION CHAIN

Safety and quality are premises that BRF values in all stages of the development of its products. And it is
only through a series of integrated and consistent operations that you can ensure that these attributes
are controlled and applied throughout the process.

With a full integration structure, called Vertical Integration, all points in the chain are BRF’s control and
responsibility. In this way, the company can guarantee the quality and safety of products and manage its
entire chain, from start to finish. This structure, of which the integrated producers are included, still
includes:

Poultry Chain: poultry farm of poultry stock > hatchery > farmhouse > egg production farm >
hatchery > integrated (fattening) > slaughtering > processing.

Swine Chain: great-grandmother’s farm > grandparents’ farm > farm SPL (Pig Producer
System) > Granja SVT (Vertical System Terminator) > slaughter > processing.

From there, the whole process is done in our processing plants, which are the places where the raw
materials are processed and transformed into products (ex: pork in ham or salami). It is only with the
management of this structure that we can guarantee quality at every stage.

INTEGRATED PRODUCERS: THE START

They are the ones who start our chain. BRF provides the integrated producer with animals, food,
technical assistance, transport, slaughter and all the products necessary for the rearing of animals. On
the other hand, the producer provides facilities that meet the hygiene, labor, welfare and quality of life
of animals.
From then on the whole process is following accompanied and controlled so that the products comply
with the legislation of Brazil and other countries around the world. Among the main items of care are:

MANAGEMENT

All livestock management on farms is handled by trained personnel responsible for compliance
with animal safety and welfare standards, including temperature, humidity and density levels.
The animals are transported and distributed by exclusive trucks, developed according to specific
technical norms and still separated by some requirements, such as species, sex and age. All
animals are inspected daily to ensure that they receive the best conditions for their full
development. The producers receive constant training, guaranteeing excellence in the
development of the work, besides having the technical team of BRF to assist in the day to day.
