JBS move into Chile salmon, Brazil tilapia would not be a surprise, says industry exec

The Brazilian firm recently announced its first foray into the aquaculture world as it looks to complete the acquisition of Huon Aquaculture in Tasmania, but it is not expected to stop there.

Brazilian meat giant JBS is being tipped to move into local tilapia production and the Chilean salmon sector even before its deal to acquire Australia's Huon Aquaculture is completed.
