Cooperativa Agrícola San Isidro

What Cooperativa Agrícola San Isidro does

Cooperativa Agrícola San Isidro is a member-owned agricultural cooperative founded in 1947 and headquartered in Villanueva de la Serena, Badajoz, Spain. It currently serves 180 farmer members (socios) in the Extremadura region, with its core activity being the commercialization of cereals and horticultural products produced by those members. The cooperative functions as a centralized service hub rather than a single-product business, operating a central warehouse for agricultural supplies (fertilizers, soil correctors, oils, hardware), a registered Category T phytosanitary products warehouse staffed by two Agricultural Technical Engineers, an in-house workshop with four blacksmiths performing repairs and custom fabrication (including three proprietary trademarked platform models), and a greenhouse with capacity for 25 million plants.

The cooperative's business model is relationship-driven and advisory-based, with members contacting the cooperative directly by phone or email to request supplies and services. The stated philosophy is to maximize member planting yields at minimum cost rather than maximize product margins, positioning the cooperative as a cost-minimization intermediary rather than a profit-maximizing supplier. Revenue streams span supply sales (transaction fees), workshop services (professional services), and cereal/horticultural commercialization. The cooperative has a strategic partnership with ACOPAEX for drip irrigation planning and is an authorized Sigfito collection center for agricultural packaging waste. The legal representative is Fermín Suárez Chamizo and the cooperative operates under CIF F06028393.

2. Agricultural Supplies Sales: Sale of packaged fertilizers, soil correctors, oils, hardware materials, and phytosanitary products (Category T) to member farmers through the central warehouse.

• Arento Grupo Cooperativo: Aragon-based second-tier agricultural cooperative covering supplies, storage, and commercialization. Comparable as a regional cooperative federation offering integrated services to farmer members.
• TIMAC AGRO España (Grupo Roullier): Major agricultural inputs supplier in Spain offering fertilizers, soil correctors, and crop advisory through a dealer network.
