Norway Salmon Farmers Sink on Russia as Brazil Meatpacker Gains

Agriculture companies from Norway to Poland to Lithuania slumped on dimmed sales prospects after Russia’s ban on food imports from the U.S. and Europe while a Brazilian meatpacker and a Turkish chicken producer rallied.

Minerva SA, Brazil’s third-largest beef producer, climbed to a 16-month high on speculation the ban will lift sales. Banvit Bandirma Vitaminli Yem Sanayii Ticaret AS, a Turkish chicken breeder, added 4.1 percent. Marine Harvest ASA, the world’s largest salmon farmer, posted the biggest decline in almost three years in Oslo.
