Our Strengths in Uruguay
In Uruguay, LDC’s Grains & Oilseeds platform merchandizes oilseeds, grains, fertilizers, agrochemicals and seeds.
We are one of the country’s leading exporters of grains and oilseeds, with extensive knowledge of both local and global markets, and a presence in key destinations around the world to which we export quality products from Uruguay.
Our market share in seeds and fertilizers & inputs has grown rapidly thanks to the quality of our products, our excellent service and sales network, and our understanding of the needs of Uruguayan producers.
Relying on our extensive network of strategically located assets in both the interior and in the main ports, our highly qualified commercial teams in the country work across the main agricultural areas. Providing product expertise and technical advice to producers, we build last ties by helping them make decisions that optimize their resources and enhance their production.
With our Macro Fertil, Macro Seed and Macro Protect brands, LDC offers producers the inputs they need to boost crop production, while promoting a more sustainable use of natural resources.
Committed to Sustainability
In addition to our strong merchandizing capabilities, growing product portfolio and reputation for reliability and integrity, our leading position in grains and oilseeds is also connected with our commitment to responsible sourcing, traceable supply chains and sustainable business practices globally.
Increasing traceability in our soy operations is also central to our sustainability efforts, to encourage responsible land use and non-conversion of native vegetation for soy cultivation.
