VISEC

What VISEC does

VISEC (Vision Sectorial del Gran Chaco Argentino) is a non-profit socio-environmental traceability platform for the Argentine agribusiness sector, founded in 2019 and headquartered in Buenos Aires. The platform operates as a multi-stakeholder sectoral initiative offering MRV (Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification) systems covering the soybean and beef value chains from production unit to export port. Its two core products — VISEC Soybean System and VISEC Beef System — integrate geolocation data, documentary evidence, satellite imagery analysis, and third-party verification by accredited certification bodies to deliver deforestation-free and legally compliant traceability documentation aligned with EUDR Regulation 1115/2023 and DCF requirements.

The platform's technology architecture combines a web-based MRV system with deep integrations into official Argentine government databases, including SENASA's RENSPA registry, SIGSA/SIGCER token systems, and ARCA's electronic waybill (CPE) system, enabling data reuse and reducing administrative burden for users. Supporting modules include custom dashboards and reports, satellite-based deforestation monitoring, and mandatory training delivered through accredited academic partners FAUBA and Incagro. In 2025, VISEC became the first platform in Argentina to obtain formal government recognition under SAGyP Resolution No. 50/2024, embedding it within the national agro-industrial differentiation framework.

VISEC operates on a freemium model: the platform is free for producers and at no cost for commercial operators (grain elevators, cooperatives, brokers) after registration and third-party site verification. The organization is funded by international donors including the European Union, Good Growth Partnership, ALL-Invest, and the Land Innovation Fund, and is governed as a collaborative initiative with full members, partners, and observers representing the entire agricultural value chain. Its member roster includes the world's largest grain traders (Cargill, ADM, Bunge, LDC, COFCO, CHS, Viterra, Amaggi), major Argentine cooperatives (ACA, CONINAGRO), and producer associations (AAPRESID, SRA, Federación Agraria).

Revenue model

1. Platform Access for Commercial Operators: VISEC generates a single, consensus-based sectoral response that is more efficient and less costly than individual company efforts. The platform facilitates harmonization of management practices across different standards and requirements. Revenue appears to be derived from the operational efficiency and market access benefits it provides to the Argentine agribusiness sector, rather than direct platform fees from producers.
