JBS agreed to pay R$5 million (approximately US$ 910,000 at that time) to a fund managed by the Pará Environment Secretariat after the Federal Public Prosecutor’s Office (Ministério Público Federal – MPF) found unsatisfactory results in audits of the Beef Terms of Adjustment of Conduct. The MPF noted that the company’s performance was inadequate in two rounds of audits conducted under the agreement, although JBS contested the audit methodology. As part of the settlement, the company also committed to auditing 100% of its cattle purchases in Pará and to opening two “green offices” in the state.
