The Food Professor, Sylvain Charlebois, currently in Ribeirao Preto, Brazil, joins the Nightshift to discuss food inflation and supply management. Brazil's inflation rates are high (5% overall, 8% for food, 17% interest rates). The professor notes that Canada's food inflation is dropping, possibly due to the government reducing interference like counter-tariffs. He also contrasts Canada's protectionist supply management, particularly in the dairy sector, with countries like New Zealand, which have successfully reorganized their dairy industries for export. He describes authentic Brazilian barbecue as an extravagant, all-you-can-eat meat experience, and forecasts a good summer for Canadian crops with stable prices.
