Uruguay

Integrated Farm: Livestock, Crops, Rice and Forestry
Kielder Agro Group Uruguay has managed over 16,000 hectares since 2008 across four farms in central and northeastern Uruguay, integrating full-cycle cattle production, irrigated rice, diversified cropping, forestry, and ecosystem conservation. Livestock operations span 9,000 head under a genetic program focused on Angus, with >85% weaning rates and slaughter at 2.5 years. Crops (soy, corn, rice, wheat, canola) are cultivated on 3,800+ ha, with 800 ha under irrigation and advanced forage systems supporting breeding and fattening.
Each farm has a distinct role: one specializes in crossbreeding; another serves as the tech and genetic hub; a third focuses on breeding and irrigated rice; while another integrates livestock, forestry, and cropping around a 400-ha dam. Over 10,000 ha are preserved for natural grazing and biodiversity.
Sustainability and community engagement are central, with support for local schools and partnerships with educational institutions. Looking ahead, Kielder plans to expand irrigation, diversify winter crops (e.g., carinata, camelina), and explore seed production of summer and forage species—leveraging its robust infrastructure and technical expertise.
