Meet Javier

As an agronomist from Buenos Aires University and former undersecretary of Agricultural Markets in Argentina, I bring a wealth of knowledge to consulting for local and international businesses.

What Inspires Me

I want to share knowledge with people in the agribusiness community outside of Argentina. I have built a large X following and host weekly X Spaces with industry experts.

What's Unique About Farming in Argentina?

Argentina has a large oilseed industry cluster in the Up River, close to Rosario City. These are the largest processing facilities in the world.

Common Farming Misconceptions in Argentina.

Export taxes are just a way to collect money for fiscal arks, while as grain and by-products increase, there will be more tax collection for the government! It is not any sort of subsidy or anti-competitive tool for other downstream businesses.

What I am Excited About

I believe that Argentina, my country, has an enormous potential to bring new investment into farming and all agribusiness. There is a huge opportunity to transform grains into value-added products such as ethanol, cattle, and aquaculture.
