“The poultry market showed a good balance between supply and demand, which together with our focus on properly serving our market channels, allowed us to record the highest sales level in a quarter.

“Our operating margin improved and good results in the quarter were boosted by the good operating environment, a more stable Mexican peso, and the strategies implemented by the Company, such as productivity improvements, optimizing sales mix and control of our expense.

“Furthermore, our comprehensive financial result also improved also during this quarter as a result of the restructuring of our derivatives portfolio and the maturity of most of the instruments we had in place,” concluded Mr. Mondragón.

RESULTS BY BUSINESS SEGMENT

Chicken
Results for the chicken business line remained strong during the second quarter. Sales of chicken products increased 20.0% as chicken prices rose 18.3% and volume grew 1.4%. During this quarter demand for chicken products was stable in the Mexican market.

Table Eggs
Sales of eggs significantly increased by 30.9% during the second quarter as egg prices rose 31.7% from the previous year, but were partially offset by a slight volume decrease of 0.6% related to the production adjustment made by the Company. Demand for egg products remained strong in the Mexican market.

Balanced Feed
During the second quarter the balanced feed business showed signs of recovery. Sales of balanced feed increased 11.3%, mainly due to an 8.9% increase in prices and a 2.3% increase in volume. This business line was strongly affected during the past quarters given the high cost of raw material prices.

Swine
Swine sales increased 0.3% from 2Q08, mainly driven by a 0.9% increase in volume, which was partially offset by a 0.6% decrease in swine prices.

Other Lines
