Latin America is an epicenter for innovative agriculture, exporting $160 billion in food products annually. From grain producers and exporters in Brazil, Argentina, Bolivia, and Paraguay to fruit and vegetable exporters like Mexico, Chile, and Peru, there is a renewed focus on driving trade and market development in the booming region of Latin America.

Trading and networking: In addition to featured sessions, you’ll have plenty of time for direct networking and private meetings to facilitate trade while learning about new players in the market. It’s a timely event as COVID restrictions scale back, allowing a return to in-person interaction.

“We have lived and worked most of the time behind our monitors with little opportunities to meet our suppliers, customers, and friends in person due to COVID,” says Jens Schenck, Managing Director of Agrosolutions Group, official partner of Jebagro for Central America, the Caribbean, and the Andean countries. “Agribusiness is facing a lot of changes and challenges regarding products, technologies, prices, and logistics. The AgriBusiness Global LATAM event is an excellent chance to meet and exchange information about what is going on in our markets.”

While the AgriBusiness GlobalSM Trade Summit will return with an in-person event bringing together manufacturers and distributors from all over the world in the summer of 2023, the AgriBusiness Global LATAM Conference and Summit focuses on the topics that are most important for players in the region today:

  • Supply Chain Planning for Ag Inputs: With increased freight costs, active ingredient (AI) supply shortages, and transportation hurdles, experts will offer short-term planning as well as 3- to 5-year outlooks to help you run your business. They will also explore options for LATAM regional trade.
  • Formulation Technology: Sessions include the latest information on merging bio-based formulations for a green approach as well as new delivery systems and technology.
  • Regenerative Agriculture and Sustainability: Explore how soil health, water conservation, and other sustainability issues are impacting agriculture in the region.
  • Ag Technology: Find out how improvements in robotics, drones, and software development are changing the business landscape and advancing application technologies.
  • Biologicals: With EU and other government regulations and restrictions for AIs and maximum residue levels, you’ll learn about the implementation of new technologies and strategies for integrated pest management.

“This conference is important because it puts Latin America in the spotlight,” says Javier Chavarro, an independent agribusiness and marketing consultant. “Latin America is a developing pantry for the world.”
