Divisions

Agriculture

  • 20.000 hectares
  • 16.000 hectares of crop
  • 25.000 ton storage capacity
  • 50.000 ton of annual production
  • In the 1970s, the Ferruzzi family acquired "Las Cabezas", a estate spanning approximately 20,000 hectares located in Gualeguay, in the southern part of Entre Ríos province, Argentina. It is managed under the firm Entre Ríos S.A.

    With around 16,000 hectares of crops, in the agriculture division, we focus on growing various products such as wheat, peas, soybeans, corn, and sorghum. In recent years, we have expanded into the cultivation of specialty crops such as lupine, canola, flint maize, among others, through agreements with leading companies. We have also ventured into maize seed production, incorporating irrigation systems as part of a long-term growth project.

    The agriculture operation is integrated, having its own machinery and a storage plant with a capacity of 25,000 tons, which allows adding value to over 50,000 tons produced annually.

    Certifications in agricultural production include:

    vacas

    Our production approach prioritizes efficiency and technology, working with electronic tagging and data collection to achieve maximum traceability. We implement intensive rotational grazing on alfalfa-based pastures and employ a finishing system under a low density feedlot to ensure animal welfare.

    Vacas

    Our cattle herd consists of Hereford and Angus breeds, with participation in the breeding programs of both associations. We have an ambitious genetic development plan focusing on productivity efficiency and product quality.

    We promote efficiency and sustainability across all areas and projects.

    In terms of sustainability, we are measuring the product's carbon footprint with the aim of achieving certification and adding value to the product.

    It is our objective to integrate into the value chain, seeking to directly export to the most demanding markets.
