What ADBlick does

ADBlick Agro S.A. is a private Argentine agribusiness investment and operating company founded in 2004–2005, headquartered in San Isidro, Buenos Aires, with an operational base in Tandil and field operations spanning Buenos Aires, Santa Fe, Córdoba, Mendoza, and Entre Ríos. The company runs a multi-vertical platform organized around branded subsidiaries: ADBlick Granos (extensive sowing of soy, corn, sunflower, wheat, barley, peanuts, camelina, rapeseed, and yellow peas across 40,000+ rented hectares in 8 zones), ADBlick Ganadería (cattle backgrounding and finishing, currently in its 11th fund module with a 10,000-head target and 3.44M kg produced), ADBlick Olivos (832 ha and 406,000 plants in Mendoza — the largest olive farm in the province), and pre-launch/adjacent vehicles in pecans, hydroponics, land acquisition, full-cycle cattle, and agricultural inputs distribution.

Capital is raised through two closed-end mutual funds (Fondos Comunes de Inversión Cerrados) and a cattle fiduciary fund, administered in partnership with Allaria, with Deloitte and TCA Consultora as professional services partners; over 1,500 unique investors participate. Investment products use outcome-based pricing tied to campaign results (e.g., 9% annual target on Granos, 8% above inflation on Ganadería, 6% appreciation + ~3% rental on Campos) with minimum tickets ranging from US$15,000 to US$50,000,000 ARS depending on the vehicle.

The underlying technology stack is a digital agriculture platform that has digitized productive data from 170+ fields across 16 campaigns, delivering real-time yield, profitability, and harvest dashboards, variable-rate planting, nitrogen analysis, and traceability from field to port. Outputs are sold through port operations at Up-River, Necochea, and Bahía Blanca to global traders including COFCO, Bunge, Cargill, and Olam Agri, with beef directed to Cuota Hilton, Cuota 481, and EU export markets, and olive oil into premium domestic and international channels. The company also operates the annual Argentina Visión 2040 thought-leadership conference (13th edition in 2025) and the BisBlick Talento Joven social-impact foundation.

Revenue model

1. Agricultural Production and Trading (ADBlick Granos): Revenue generated from extensive sowing operations across more than 40,000 hectares of grains, oilseeds, and special seeds. The business model includes four verticals: own sowing, associated producer sowing, inputs/services, and origination/trading. Operations handle over 130,000 tonnes of grains, oilseeds, and special seeds through ports at Up-River, Necochea, and Bahía Blanca. ADBlick Granos administers approximately US$50 million in capital across rented fields.
2. Closed-End Investment Fund Management: ADBlick structures agricultural investment through two closed-end mutual funds (Fondos Comunes de Inversión Cerrados) and a cattle fattening fiduciary fund. Investors contribute capital to these vehicles which fund agricultural production, livestock, and olive operations. Currently over 1,500 unique investors participate. The cattle fund invests in a fiduciary structure for cattle fattening (recría and terminación).
3. Cattle Production (ADBlick Ganadería): Revenue from beef cattle production focused on recría and terminación for domestic consumption and export (Cuota Hilton, Cuota 481, European Union). Animals are purchased, fattened on first-tier fields, and sold at target weights of 430-480 kg. The fund targets 10,000 head with 3.44 million kg produced, with sales to both domestic market and export channels.

Broad incumbents

• Bioceres: Bioceres is an Argentine ag-biotech company focused on crop biotechnology, biological inputs, and HB4 drought-tolerant seeds. While not a direct crop producer, it is a key technology and input partner to Argentine agriculture and a relevant broader incumbent in the Argentine ag value chain where ADBlick operates.
• IRSA Propiedades Comerciales: IRSA is a major Argentine real estate and agricultural land investor, with rural land holdings managed through subsidiary Cresud. It represents a broader Argentine farmland investment incumbent and an alternative capital deployment vehicle for investors with similar return profiles to ADBlick's funds.

Direct peers

• Lartirigoyen y Cía. Lartirigoyen is an Argentine grain operator with own production, origination, and trading activities, operating at scale with port and export access. The combined production and origination model and direct relationship with global traders overlap with ADBlick's grains vertical.
• MSU: MSU is a major Argentine agricultural operator with a sizable grains footprint and a model combining own production with associated producer arrangements. The shared 'own + associated' sowing model and integrated crop commercialization make MSU a direct comparable to ADBlick Granos.
• Cresud: Cresud is a leading Argentine farmland investment and operating company with a portfolio spanning crop production, cattle, and real estate. It is a direct comparable given its hybrid farmland-owner-operator model and Argentine agribusiness focus, with a more developed land ownership strategy than ADBlick.
• Grupo Los Grobo: Los Grobo is one of Argentina's largest agricultural operators, with a similar four-vertical model (grains production, origination, inputs distribution, and producer services). The integrated grain origination and inputs model closely mirrors ADBlick Granos, making it a direct strategic comparable.
• Adecoagro: Adecoagro is a large-scale Argentine agribusiness operator with extensive farmland across grains, rice, dairy, and sugar, plus renewable energy. It is the most direct publicly-listed comparable in terms of crop production at scale in Argentina, including a similar grains footprint and direct export channel access.
• El Tejar: El Tejar is a major South American crop producer with a large footprint in Argentina, producing grains and oilseeds across multiple zones. The multi-zone, multi-country crop production model and direct port/export off-take closely resemble ADBlick's grains operations.

Others

• Agrofy: Agrofy is the leading Argentine agricultural digital marketplace and media platform, and a GTM/marketing partner to ADBlick. While not a producer, Agrofy is an adjacent digital ecosystem participant that shares the Argentine ag producer audience and is part of ADBlick's broader agtech network.
• Syngenta (NK Semillas): Syngenta is a strategic input partner to ADBlick for seed genetics and sunflower hybrid development. As a global crop input supplier and Cropwise (Syngenta Digital) provider, Syngenta is an ecosystem participant rather than a direct competitor, but is a relevant supply-side peer for benchmarking ag input value chains.
