A real competitive vocation.
From the date of its founding in 1948 up to present times, AGD has faced constantly changing conditions in the sector, the Argentine economy and the world market. Its protagonists sharply noticed the need for being flexible where the raw material supply is availabe, and of adapting processes, costs and productivity required by this activity to be competitive.

The development of a solid logistics structure.
One of the basic factors in the dizzying development of AGD group is the handling of logistics, designed so as to integrate the functioning of all the different areas of the company. The constant expansion of exports made an efficient port facility an essential objective. Thus, AGD is the owner of the Timbúes port and, in addition, associated with other companies of the ports Terminal 6 S.A. and Guide S.A., all located in the Rosario area, Santa Fe province.

Profit reinvestment.
AGD was born from the idea, efforts and enterprising spirit of one of the main protagonists of Argentina’s business history. He started up in business with a modest industrial facility whose second-hand machinery had been totally refurbished with the support of the combined efforts and commitment of 19 partners and 30 workers that believed in the ability of the Argentine provinces to contribute towards building a solid national economy and a mature society.

Technology innovation.
From the start, AGD staked its efforts in ongoing technology innovation, convinced of the need to adapt its processes to the cost and production requirements that an industry must meet in order to be competitive. To do this, over the years it expanded and modernized its installed production capacity, both in its industrial plants and storage facilities as well as in techniques and last-generation equipment.

This currently valid viewpoint is strongly adopted by those who today form part of AGD’s management team.

Seed Origination.
Within the guidelines of AGD there is a strong belief in the need to guarantee permanent supply and storage of raw materials so as to achieve the greatest possible process efficiency.

Thus, the overall working methodology enables supply of the major part of the seed from owned or rented lands or lands in prime Argentine production areas exploited under partnership schemes with third parties, leading to a wide and efficient origination network for oilseeds that effectively guarantees supply.

The integration of production processes.
AGD group is an integrated agricultural-industrial complex, ruled by a matrix-type organizational framework whose target is the achieving of the highest possible level of management efficiency.

Qualified Human Resources.
