But this model has been changing. We have adapted the 256,000 hectares that we fear to develop in association with third parties, producers and customers, through agreements of joint production, which is a way to innovate and adapt to the sector".

Regarding the incorporation of technology in the sector, he highlighted that "it is the reason that in the last 30 years the production has been duplicated. hizo that year by year it will increase production. The producer is a fast taker of these technologies".

Before, we generated a lot of data but we did not know what to do with them. Our purpose is to offer a comprehensive proposal to analyze them. data that are generated and transformed into information for decision-making, in a context that is volatile, but allá de la coyuntura".

So that the Argentinean producer is constantly looking for tools to be more efficient and move forward in your business and make it more stable".
