Background

As part of a corporate reorganization (the “Reorganization”), Adecoagro, a Luxembourg corporation under the form of a société anonyme, was formed as a holding company for IFH for the purpose, among others, of facilitating the initial public offering (the “IPO”) of our common shares, completed on January 28, 2011. Before the IPO, Adecoagro had not engaged in any business or other activities except in connection with its formation and the Reorganization. For an additional discussion of the Reorganization, see “Item 4. Information on the Company—A. History and Development of the Company—History.”

During 2011, we contributed the net proceeds of the IPO to increase our interest in IFH from 98% to 98.64%. During 2012, we issued, in a series of transactions, 1,654,752 shares to certain limited partners of IFH in exchange for their residual interest in IFH, totaling 1.3595%, thereby increasing our interest in IFH to approximately 100%.

The consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, and for the years then ended (hereinafter, the “Consolidated Financial Statements”) included in this annual report have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. All IFRS effective at the time of preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements have been applied.

v

Financial Statements

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

To supplement our Consolidated Financial Statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS, we use the following non-IFRS financial measures in this annual report:

| · | Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA

| · | Adjusted Segment EBITDA

| · | Adjusted Consolidated EBIT

| · | Adjusted Segment EBIT

| · | Adjusted Free Cash Flow

| · | Adjusted Free Cash Flow from Operations

| · | Net Debt

| · | Net Debt to Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA

In this section, we provide an explanation and a reconciliation of each of our non-IFRS financial measures to their most directly comparable IFRS measures of each non-IFRS measure. The presentation of these financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS.

We use non-IFRS measures to internally evaluate and analyze financial results. We believe these non-IFRS financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about the liquidity and financial performance of our business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and enable comparison of our financial results with other public companies, many of which present similar non-IFRS financial measures.

There are limitations associated with the use of non-IFRS financial measures as an analytical tool. In particular, many of the adjustments to our IFRS financial measures reflect the exclusion of items, such as depreciation and amortization, changes in fair value and the related income tax effects of the aforementioned exclusions, that are recurring and will be reflected in our financial results for the foreseeable future. In addition, these measures may be different from non-IFRS financial measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness for comparison purposes.

Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA, Adjusted Segment EBITDA, Adjusted Consolidated EBIT and Adjusted Segment EBIT

We present Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA, Adjusted Segment EBITDA, Adjusted Consolidated EBIT and Adjusted Segment EBIT in this annual report as supplemental measures of performance of our company and of each operating segment, respectively, that are not required by, or presented in accordance with IFRS. Our Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA equals the sum of our Adjusted Segment EBITDA for each of our operating segments. We define “Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA” as (i) consolidated net profit (loss) for the year, as applicable, before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, foreign exchange gains or losses, other net financial expenses; and (ii) adjusted by profit or loss from discontinued operations; and (iii) adjusted by gains or losses from disposals of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries whose main underlying asset is farmland which are reflected in our Shareholders Equity under the line item”: ”Reserve from the sale of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries.” We define “Adjusted Segment EBITDA” for each of our operating segments as (i) the segment’s share of consolidated profit (loss) from operations before financing and taxation for the year, as applicable, before depreciation and amortization; and (ii) adjusted by profit or loss from discontinued operations; and (iii) adjusted by gains or losses from disposals of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries whose main underlying asset is farmland, which are reflected in our Shareholders Equity under the line item: “Reserve from the sale of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries.”

vi

We believe that Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA are important measures of operating performance for our company and each operating segment, respectively, because they allow investors and others to evaluate and compare our consolidated operating results and to evaluate and compare the operating performance of our segments, respectively, including our return on capital and operating efficiencies, from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest expense from our outstanding debt), asset base (depreciation and amortization), tax consequences (income taxes), foreign exchange gains or losses and other financial expenses. In addition, by including the gains or losses from disposals of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries whose main underlying asset is farmland, investors can also evaluate the full value and returns generated by our land transformation activities. Other companies may calculate Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA differently, and therefore our Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under IFRS, and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to consolidated net profit (loss), cash flows from operating activities, segment’s profit from operations before financing and taxation and other measures determined in accordance with IFRS. Items excluded from Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA are significant and necessary components to the operations of our business, and, therefore, Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA should only be used as a supplemental measure of our company’s operating performance, and of each of our operating segments, respectively. We also believe Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA are useful for securities analysts, investors and others to evaluate the financial performance of our company and other companies in the agricultural industry. These non-IFRS measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, the information contained in either our statements of income or segment information.

Our Adjusted Consolidated EBIT equals the sum of our Adjusted Segment EBITs for each of our operating segments. We define “Adjusted Consolidated EBIT” as (i) consolidated net profit (loss) for the year, as applicable, before interest expense, income taxes, foreign exchange gains or losses and other net financial expenses; and (ii) adjusted by profit or loss from discontinued operations; and (iii) adjusted by gains or losses from disposals of non controlling interests in subsidiaries whose main underlying asset farmland. We define “Adjusted Segment EBIT” for each of our operating segments as the segment’s share of (i) consolidated profit (loss) from operations before financing and taxation for the year, as applicable; and (ii) adjusted by profit or loss from discontinued operations; and (iii) adjusted by gains or losses from disposals of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries whose main underlying asset is farmland, which are reflected in our Shareholders Equity under the line item: “Reserve from the sale of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries.” We believe that Adjusted Consolidated EBIT and Adjusted Segment EBIT are important measures of operating performance, for our company and each operating segment, respectively, because they allow investors and others to evaluate and compare our consolidated operating results and to evaluate and compare the operating performance of our segments, from period to period by including the impact of depreciable fixed assets and removing the impact of our capital structure (interest expense from our outstanding debt), tax consequences (income taxes), foreign exchange gains or losses and other financial expenses. In addition, by including the gains or losses from disposals of non-controlling interests in subsidiaries whose main underlying asset is farmland, investors can evaluate the full value and returns generated by our land transformation activities. Other companies may calculate Adjusted Consolidated EBIT and Adjusted Segment EBIT differently, and therefore our Adjusted Consolidated EBIT and Adjusted Segment EBIT may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted Consolidated EBIT and Adjusted Segment EBIT are not measures of financial performance under IFRS, and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to consolidated net profit (loss), cash flows from operating activities, segment’s profit from operations before financing and taxation and other measures determined in accordance with IFRS. Items excluded from Adjusted Consolidated EBIT and Adjusted Segment EBIT are significant and necessary components to the operations of our business, and, therefore, Adjusted Consolidated EBIT and Adjusted Segment EBIT should only be used as a supplemental measure of the operating performance of our company, and of each of our operating segments, respectively. We also believe Adjusted Consolidated EBIT and Adjusted Segment EBIT are useful for securities analysts, investors and others to evaluate the financial performance of our company and other companies in the agricultural industry.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow from Operations

We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow as (i) net cash generated from operating activities, less (ii) net cash used in investing activities, less (iii) interest paid, plus (iv) proceeds from the sale of non-controlling interest in subsidiaries. We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow from Operations as (i) net cash generated from operating activities less (ii) net cash used in investing activities, less (iii) interest paid, plus (iv) proceeds from the sale of non-controlling interest in subsidiaries; plus (v) expansion capital expenditures.

vii

Expansion capital expenditures is defined as the required investment to expand current production capacity. We define maintenance capital expenditures as the necessary investments in order to maintain the current level of productivity both at an agricultural and industrial level.

We believe Adjusted Free Cash Flow is an important liquidity measure for the Company because it allows investors and others to evaluate and compare the amount of cash generated by the Company to undertake growth investments, to fund acquisitions, to reduce outstanding financial debt, and to provide a return to shareholders in the form of dividends and/or share repurchases, among other things.

We believe Adjusted Free Cash Flow from Operations is an important liquidity metric for the Company because it allows investors and others to evaluate and compare the amount of cash generated by the Company’s operations after paying for interests, taxes and maintenance capital expenses. We believe this metric is relevant in evaluating the overall performance of our business.

Other companies may calculate Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow from Operations differently, and therefore our formulation may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow from Operations are not measures of liquidity under IFRS, and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to consolidated, cash flows from operating activities, net increase, (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents and other measures determined in accordance with IFRS

Net Debt and Net Debt to Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA

Net debt is defined as the sum of non-current and current borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. This measure is widely used by management.

Management is consistently tracking our leverage position and our ability to repay and service our debt obligations over time. We have therefore set a leverage ratio target that is measured by net debt divided by Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA.

We believe that the ratio net debt to Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA provides useful information to investors because management uses it to manage our debt-equity ratio in order to promote access to capital markets and our ability to meet scheduled debt service obligations.

Fiscal Year and Harvest Year

Our fiscal year begins on January 1 and ends on December 31 of each year. However, our production is based on the harvest year for each of our crops and rice. A harvest year varies according to the crop or rice and to the climate in which it is grown. Due to the geographic diversity of our farms, the planting period for a given crop or rice may start earlier on one farm than on another, causing differences in their respective harvesting periods. The presentation of production volume (tons) and product area (hectares) in this annual report, in respect of the harvest years for each of our crops and rice, starts with the first day of the planting period at the first farm to start planting on that harvest year and continues to the last day of the harvesting period of the respective crop or rice on the last farm to finish harvesting that harvest year, as shown in the table below.

viii

Product area for cattle is presented on a harvest year basis given that land utilized for cattle operations is linked to our farming operations and use of farmland during a harvest year. Production volumes for dairy and cattle operations are presented on a fiscal year basis. On the other hand, production volumes and product area in our sugar, ethanol and energy business are presented on a fiscal year basis.

The financial results for all of our products are presented on a fiscal year basis.

Certain Weight Units and Measures in the Agricultural Business

Financial Statements” and the Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes included elsewhere in this annual report.

| § | Effects of the adoption of the amendments to IAS 41 and IAS 16

IASB amended IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment” and IAS 41 “Agriculture,” which distinguish bearer plants from other biological assets. Bearer plants are used solely to grow produce over their productive lives and are considered to bear more resemblance to machinery and equipment (IAS 16) than other biological assets (under IAS 41). Accordingly, they are now accounted for under IAS 16. However, the agricultural produce growing on bearer plants remains within the scope of IAS 41 and is measured at fair value less cost to sell. The amendments were applicable for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

Our sugarcane and coffee plantations qualify as bearer plants under the new definition in IAS 41. As required under IAS 8, “Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors”, we effected the change in accounting policy retrospectively. Consequently, effective January 1, 2016, our sugarcane and coffee plantations were reclassified to property, plant and equipment, measured at amortized cost and depreciated over their useful life on a straight-line basis. We adopted the transitional rule provided for in the amendment, which allowed us to apply the fair value of bearer plants as their deemed cost as of January 1, 2014. Accordingly, we revised the comparative amounts financial data for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. Financial data for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 have not been revised, and are not comparable to financial data for the years 2016, 2015 and 2014.

For further information, and an analysis of the impact of the adoption of IAS 41 and IAS 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements please see Note 32.1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

| D. | RISK FACTORS

Investing in our common shares involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the information contained in this annual report, particularly the risks described below, as well as in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Our business activities, cash flow, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected by any of these risks. The market price of our common shares may decrease due to any of these risks or other factors, and you may lose all or part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business operations.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industries

Unpredictable weather conditions, pest infestations and diseases may have an adverse impact on agricultural production.

The occurrence of severe adverse weather conditions, especially droughts, hail, floods or frost or diseases are unpredictable and may have a potentially devastating impact on agricultural production and may otherwise adversely affect the supply and price of the agricultural commodities that we sell and use in our business. Adverse weather conditions may be exacerbated by the effects of climate change. The effects of severe adverse weather conditions may reduce yields of our agricultural activities. Additionally, higher than average temperatures and rainfall can contribute to an increased presence of pest and insects that may adversely impact our agricultural production.

We experienced drought conditions during the first half of 2013 in the countries where we operate, which resulted in a reduction of approximately 21% to 31% in our yields for the 2012/2013 harvest, for corn and soybean, compared with our historical averages. The actual yields following the drought generated a decrease in Initial Recognition and Changes in Fair Value of Biological Assets and Agricultural Produce in respect of corn, soybean and the remaining crops of $5.9 million, $16.6 million and $2.7 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2013. See “Item 5.—Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Trends and Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations—(i) Effects of Yield Fluctuations”.

The occurrence and effects of disease and plagues can be unpredictable and devastating to agricultural products, potentially rendering all or a substantial portion of the affected harvests unsuitable for sale. Our agricultural products are also susceptible to fungus and bacteria that are associated with excessively moist conditions. Even when only a portion of the production is damaged, our results of operations could be adversely affected because all or a substantial portion of the production costs have been incurred. Although some diseases are treatable, the cost of treatment is high, and we cannot assure you that such events in the future will not adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Furthermore, if we fail to control a given plague or disease and our production is threatened, we may be unable to supply our main customers, which could affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Our sugar production depends on the volume and sucrose content of the sugarcane that we cultivate or that is supplied to us by growers located in the vicinity of our mills. Both sugarcane yields and sucrose content depend primarily on weather conditions such as rainfall and temperature, which vary. Weather conditions have historically caused volatility in the ethanol and sugar industries. Future weather patterns may reduce the amount of sugarcane that we can harvest or purchase, or the sucrose content in such sugarcane, and, consequently, the amount of sugar and ethanol we can produce in any given harvest. Any reduction in production volumes could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.

| 10 |

As a result, we cannot assure you that future severe adverse weather conditions or pest infestations will not adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

Fluctuation in market prices for our products could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Prices for agricultural products and by-products, including, among others, sugar, ethanol, and grains, like those of other commodities, have historically been cyclical and sensitive to domestic and international changes in supply and demand and can be expected to fluctuate significantly. In addition, the agricultural products and by-products we produce are traded on commodities and futures exchanges and thus are subject to speculative trading, which may adversely affect us. The prices that we are able to obtain for our agricultural products and by-products depend on many factors beyond our control including:

| · | prevailing world commodity prices, which historically have been subject to significant fluctuations over relatively short periods of time, depending on worldwide demand and supply;

| · | changes in the agricultural subsidy levels of certain important producers (mainly the U.S. and the European Union (“E.U.”) and the adoption of other government policies affecting industry market conditions and prices;

| · | changes to trade barriers of certain important consumer markets (including China, India, the U.S. and the E.U.) and the adoption of other governmental policies affecting industry market conditions and prices;

| · | changes in government policies for biofuels;

| · | world inventory levels, i.e., the supply of commodities carried over from year to year;

| · | climatic conditions and natural disasters in areas where agricultural products are cultivated;

| · | the production capacity of our competitors; and

| · | demand for and supply of competing commodities and substitutes.

Further, because we may not hedge 100% of the price risk of our agricultural products, we may be unable to have minimum price guarantees for all of our production and are, therefore, exposed to risks associated with the prices of agricultural products and their volatility. We are subject to fluctuations in prices of agricultural products that could result in our receiving lower prices for our agricultural products than our production costs.

In addition, there is a strong relationship between the value of our land holdings and market prices of the commodities we produce, which are affected by global economic conditions. A decline in the prices of grains, sugar, ethanol, or related by-products below their current levels for a sustained period of time could significantly reduce the value of our land holdings and materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Ethanol prices are correlated to the price of sugar and are becoming closely correlated to the price of oil, so that a decline in the price of sugar will adversely affect both our ethanol and sugar businesses, and a decline in the price of oil may adversely affect our ethanol business.

A vast majority of ethanol in Brazil is produced at sugarcane mills that produce both ethanol and sugar. Because sugarcane millers are able to alter their product mix in response to the relative prices of ethanol and sugar, this results in the prices of both products being directly correlated, and the correlation between ethanol and sugar may increase over time. In addition, sugar prices in Brazil are determined by prices in the world market, resulting in a correlation between Brazilian ethanol prices and world sugar prices. Accordingly, a decline in sugar prices would have an adverse effect on the financial performance of our ethanol and sugar businesses.

Currently, gasoline prices in Brazil are set by the Brazilian government through Petrobras. Because flex-fuel vehicles, which have become popular in Brazil, allow consumers to choose between gasoline and ethanol at the pump rather than in the showroom, ethanol prices are now becoming increasingly correlated to gasoline prices and, consequently, oil prices. Therefore, a decline in oil prices or a decision by Petrobras to lower gasoline prices would have an adverse effect on the financial performance of our ethanol and sugar business.

| 11 |

The expansion of our business through acquisitions poses risks that may reduce the benefits we anticipate from these transactions.

As part of our business strategy, we have grown through acquisitions. We plan to continue growing by acquiring other farms and production facilities throughout South America. We believe that the agricultural industry and agricultural activity in the region are highly fragmented and that our future consolidation opportunities will continue to be significant to our growth. However, our management is unable to predict whether or when any prospective acquisitions or strategic alliances will occur, or the likelihood of a certain transaction being completed on favorable terms and conditions. In addition, we are unable to predict the effect that changes in Argentine or Brazilian legislation regarding foreign ownership of rural properties could have in our business. See “—Risks Related to Argentina—Argentine law concerning foreign ownership of rural properties may adversely affect our results of operations and future investments in rural properties in Argentina” and “—Risks Related to Brazil—Recent changes in Brazilian rules concerning foreign investment in rural properties may adversely affect our investments.” Our ability to continue to expand our business successfully through acquisitions depends on many factors, including our ability to identify acquisitions or access capital markets at an acceptable cost and negotiate favorable transaction terms. Even if we are able to identify acquisition targets and obtain the necessary financing to make these acquisitions, we could financially overextend ourselves, especially if an acquisition is followed by a period of lower than projected prices for our products.

Acquisitions also expose us to the risk of successor liability relating to actions involving an acquired company, its management or contingent liabilities incurred before the acquisition. The due diligence we conduct in connection with an acquisition, and any contractual guarantees or indemnities that we receive from the sellers of acquired companies, may not be sufficient to protect us from, or compensate us for, actual liabilities. Any material liability associated with an acquisition could adversely affect our reputation and results of operations and reduce the benefits of the acquisition.

To support the acquisitions we hope to make, we may need to implement new or upgraded strategies, systems, procedures and controls for our operations and will face risks, including diversion of management time and focus and challenges associated with integrating new managers and employees. Our failure to integrate new businesses successfully could adversely affect our business and financial performance.

We may be unable to realize synergies and efficiency gains from our recent acquisitions in the timeframe we anticipate or at all, because of integration or other challenges. In addition, we may be unable to identify, negotiate or finance future acquisitions, particularly as part of our international growth strategy, successfully or at favorable valuations, or to effectively integrate these acquisitions or joint venture businesses with our current businesses. Any future joint ventures or acquisitions of businesses, technologies, services or products might require us to obtain additional equity or debt financing, which may not be available on favorable terms, or at all. Future acquisitions and joint ventures may also results in unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures, as well as strain on our organizational culture.

A significant increase in the price of raw materials we use in our operations, or the shortage of such raw materials, could adversely affect our results of operations.

Our production process requires various raw materials, including primarily fertilizer, pesticides and seeds, which we acquire from local and international suppliers. We do not have long-term supply contracts for most of these raw materials. A significant increase in the cost of these raw materials, especially fertilizer and agrochemicals, a shortage of raw materials or the unavailability of these raw materials entirely could reduce our profit margin, reduce our production and/or interrupt the production of some of our products, in all cases adversely affecting the results of our operations and our financial condition.

For example, we rely on fertilizers and agrochemicals, many of which are petro-chemical based. In our Farming business, fertilizers and agrochemicals represented approximately 30% of our total cost of production (including manufacturing and administrative expenses) for the 2015/2016 harvest year. In our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy business, fertilizers and agrochemicals represented 11% of our cost of production (including manufacturing and administrative expenses) for 2016. Worldwide production of agricultural products has increased significantly in recent years, increasing the demand for agrochemicals and fertilizers. This has resulted, among other things, in increased prices for agrochemicals and fertilizers.

| 12 |

Increased energy prices and frequent interruptions of energy supply could adversely affect our business.

We require substantial amounts of fuel oil and other resources for our harvest activities and transport of our agricultural products. During the 2015/16 harvest year, fuel represented 9% of the cost of production (including manufacturing and administrative expenses) of our Farming business. In our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy business, fuel represented 8% of our cost of production (including manufacturing and administrative expenses) for the 2015/16 harvest year. We rely upon third parties for our supply of energy resources used in our operations. The prices for and availability of energy resources may be subject to change or curtailment, respectively, due to, among other things, new laws or regulations, imposition of new taxes or tariffs, interruptions in production by suppliers, imposition of restrictions on energy supply by government, worldwide price levels and market conditions. Over the last few years, the Argentine government has taken certain measures in order to reduce the use of energy during peak months of the year by frequently cutting energy supply to industrial facilities and large consumers to ensure adequate supply for residential buildings. For example, certain of our industrial facilities have been subject to a quota system whereby electricity cuts occur on a work shift basis, resulting in our facilities being shut down during certain work shifts. Also, the Macri administration in Argentina has declared a state of emergency with respect to the national energy system until December 31, 2017. The state of emergency will allow the Macri administration to take any action to ensure the supply of energy. A revision to the current subsidy policies has also been announced by the Macri administration. While some of our facilities utilize different sources of energy, such as firewood and liquefied natural gas, and have attempted to stock their required supplies ahead of higher demand periods, we cannot assure you that we will be able to procure the required energy inputs at acceptable prices. If energy supply is cut for an extended period of time and we are unable to find replacement sources at comparable prices, or at all, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.

We depend on international trade and economic and other conditions in key export markets for our products.

Our operating results depend largely on economic conditions and regulatory policies for our products in major export markets. The ability of our products to compete effectively in these export markets may be adversely affected by a number of factors that are beyond our control, including the deterioration of macroeconomic conditions, volatility of exchange rates, the imposition of greater tariffs or protectionist policies or other trade barriers or other factors in those markets, such as regulations relating to chemical content of products and safety requirements. The European Union, for example, limits the import of genetically modified organisms, or “GMOs.” See “Some of the agricultural commodities and food products that we produce contain genetically modified organisms.”

Due to the growing participation in the worldwide agricultural commodities markets by commodities produced in South America, South American growers, including us, are increasingly affected by the measures taken by importing countries in order to protect their local producers. Measures such as the limitation on imports adopted in a particular country or region may affect the sector’s export volume significantly and, consequently, our operating results.

If the sale of our products into a particular importing country is adversely affected by trade barriers or by any of the factors mentioned above, the relocation of our products to other consumers on terms equally favorable could be impaired, and our business, financial condition and operating results may be adversely affected.

A worldwide economic downturn could weaken demand for our products or lower prices.

The demand for the products we sell may be affected by international, national and local economic conditions that are beyond our control. Adverse changes in the perceived or actual economic climate, such as higher fuel prices, higher interest rates, stock and real estate market declines and/or volatility, more restrictive credit markets, higher taxes, and changes in governmental policies could reduce the level of demand or prices of the products we produce. We cannot predict the duration or magnitude of this downturn or the timing or strength of economic recovery. If a downturn were to continue for an extended period of time or worsen, we could experience a prolonged period of decreased demand and prices. In addition, economic downturns have and may adversely impact our suppliers, which can result in disruptions in goods and services and financial losses.

| 13 |

Our business is seasonal, and our results may fluctuate significantly depending on the growing cycle of our crops.

As with any agricultural business enterprise, our business operations are predominantly seasonal in nature. The harvest of corn, soybean and rice generally occurs from January to May. Wheat is harvested from December to January. Cotton is harvested from June to August, but requires processing which takes approximately two to three months. Our operations and sales are affected by the growing cycle of our crops process and the timing of our harvest sales. In addition, our sugar and ethanol business is subject to seasonal trends based on the sugarcane growing cycle in the center-south region of Brazil. Although, we operate under a “non-stop” or “continuous” harvest model which allows us to crush sugarcane year round, the annual sugarcane harvesting period in the center-south region of Brazil begins in March/April and ends in November/December. This creates price fluctuations which result in fluctuations in our sugar and ethanol inventories, usually peaking in December to take advantage of higher prices during the traditional off-season (i.e., January through April), and a degree of seasonality in our gross profit. Seasonality could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial performance. In addition, our quarterly results may vary as a result of the effects of fluctuations in commodities prices, production yields and costs. Therefore, our results of operations have varied significantly from period to period and are likely to continue to vary, due to seasonal factors.

Our dairy cattle are vulnerable to diseases.

Diseases among our dairy cattle herds, such as mastitis, tuberculosis, brucellosis and foot-and-mouth disease, can have an adverse effect on the productivity of our dairy cows. Outbreaks of cattle diseases may also result in the closure of certain important markets to our cattle-derived products. Although we abide by national veterinary health guidelines, including laboratory analyses and vaccination, to control diseases among our herds, especially foot-and-mouth disease, we cannot assure you that future outbreaks will not occur. A future outbreak of diseases among our cattle herds could adversely affect our milk sales and operating results and financial condition.

Furthermore, outbreaks, or fears of outbreaks, of any of these or other animal diseases may lead to cancellation of orders by our customers and, particularly if the disease has the potential to affect humans, or create adverse publicity that may have a material adverse effect on consumer demand for our products. Moreover, outbreaks of animal disease may result in foreign governmental action to close export markets to some or all of our products, which may result in the destruction of some or all of these animals.

We face significant competition from Brazilian and foreign producers, which could adversely affect our financial performance.

We face strong competition from other producers in our domestic market and from foreign producers in our export markets. The market for commodities is highly fragmented. Small producers can also be important competitors, some of which operate in the informal economy and are able to offer lower prices by meeting lower quality standards. Competition from other producers is a barrier to expanding our sales in the domestic/foreign market. With respect to exports, we compete with other large, vertically integrated producers that have the ability to produce quality products at low cost, as well as with foreign producers.

The Brazilian markets, in particular, are highly price-competitive and sensitive to product substitution. Even if we remain a low-cost producer, customers may seek to diversify their sources of supply by purchasing a portion of the products they need from producers in other countries, as some of our customers in key export markets have begun to do. We expect that we will continue to face strong competition in all of our markets and anticipate that existing or new competitors may broaden their product lines and extend their geographic scope. Any failure by us to respond to product, pricing and other moves by competitors may negatively affect our financial performance.

Our current insurance coverage may not be sufficient to cover our potential losses.

Our production is, in general, subject to different risks and hazards, including adverse weather conditions, fires, diseases and pest infestations, other natural phenomena, industrial accidents, labor disputes, changes in the legal and regulatory framework applicable to us, environmental contingencies and other natural phenomena. Our insurance currently covers only part of the losses we may incur and does not cover losses on crops due to hail storms, fires or similar risks. Furthermore, although we maintain insurance at levels that are customary in our industry, certain types of risks may not be covered by the policies we have for our industrial facilities. Additionally, we cannot guarantee that the indemnification paid by the insurer due to the occurrence of a casualty covered by our policies will be sufficient to entirely compensate us for the damages suffered. Moreover, we may not be able to maintain or obtain insurance of the type and amount desired at reasonable costs. If we were to incur significant liability for which we were not fully insured, it could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

| 14 |

In addition, even where we incur losses that are ultimately covered by insurance, we may incur additional expenses to mitigate the loss, such as shifting production to another facility. These costs may not be fully covered by our insurance.

A reduction in market demand for ethanol or a change in governmental policies reducing the amount of ethanol required to be added to gasoline may adversely affect our business.

Government authorities of several countries, including Brazil and certain states of the United States, currently require the use of ethanol as an additive to gasoline. Commencing in March 2015, the Brazilian Government increased the required blend of anhydrous ethanol to gasoline from 25% to 27%. The increase in the ethanol blend rate is expected to create an additional demand for anhydrous ethanol in the order of approximately 800 thousand cubic meters of anhydrous per year.

Approximately 40% of all fuel ethanol in Brazil is consumed in the form of anhydrous ethanol blended with gasoline; the remaining 60% of fuel ethanol is consumed in the form of hydrous ethanol, which is mostly used to power flex-fuel vehicles. Flex-fuel vehicles have the flexibility to run either on gasoline (blended with anhydrous ethanol) or hydrous ethanol. In the United States, almost all gasoline sold contains 10% ethanol. The European Union aims for 10% of the energy used in the transport sector to derive from renewable energy sources by 2020, without specific targets for certain renewable energy sources and without intermediate targets, to be determined by each Member State. As an example, in Sweden the ethanol blending ratio is 5%, which is the same mandate for other non-European countries, such as Argentina, Canada and India. Other countries such as Colombia, South Africa, Thailand and China have a 10% biofuel blending mandate. In addition, flex-fuel vehicles in Brazil are entitled to a tax benefit in the form of a lower tax rate on manufactured products (Imposto sobre Produtos Industrializados) and therefore are currently taxed at lower levels than gasoline-only vehicles, which has contributed to the increase in production and sale of flex-fuel vehicles. Many of these policies and incentives stem from, and are mostly driven by, climate change concerns and the positive perceptions regarding the use of ethanol as a solution to the climate change problem. If such concerns or perception were to change, the legal framework and incentive structure promoting the use of ethanol may change, leading to a reduction in the demand for ethanol. In addition, any reduction in the percentage of ethanol required in fuel blended with gasoline or increase in the levels at which flex-fuel vehicles are taxed in Brazil, or any growth in the demand for natural gas and other fuels as an alternative to ethanol, lower gasoline prices or an increase in gasoline consumption (versus ethanol), may cause demand for ethanol to decline and affect our business.

Growth in the sale and distribution of ethanol depends in part on infrastructure improvements, which may not occur on a timely basis, if at all.

In contrast to the well-established logistical operations and infrastructure supporting sugar exports, ethanol exports inherently demand much more complex preparation and means of distribution, including outlets from our facilities to ports and shipping to other countries. Substantial infrastructure development by persons and entities outside our control is required for our operations, and the ethanol industry generally, to grow. Areas requiring expansion include, but are not limited to, additional rail capacity, additional storage facilities for ethanol, increases in truck fleets capable of transporting ethanol within localized markets, expansion of refining and blending facilities to handle ethanol, growth in service stations equipped to handle ethanol fuels, and growth in the fleet of flex-fuel vehicles. Specifically, with respect to ethanol exports, improvements in consumer markets abroad are needed in the number and capacity of ethanol blending industrial plants, the distribution channels of gasoline-ethanol blends and the chains of distribution stations capable of handling fuel ethanol as an additive to gasoline. Substantial investments required for these infrastructure changes and expansions may not be made or they may not be made on a timely basis. Any delay or failure in making the changes in or expansion of infrastructure may hurt the demand for or prices of our products, prevent our products’ delivery, impose additional costs on us or otherwise have a serious adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial status. Our business relies on the continuing availability of infrastructure for ethanol production, storage and distribution, and any infrastructure disruptions may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

| 15 |

We may be harmed by competition from alternative fuels, products and production methods.

Ethanol competes in the biofuel market with other, established fuels such as biodiesel, as well as fuels that are still in the development phase, including methanol and butanol from biomass. Alternative fuels could become more successful than ethanol in the biofuels market over the medium or long term due to, for example, lower production costs, greater environmental benefits or other more favorable product characteristics. In addition, alternative fuels may also benefit from tax incentives or other more favorable governmental policies than those that apply to ethanol. Furthermore, our success depends on early identification of new developments relating to products and production methods and continuous improvement of existing expertise in order to ensure that our product range keeps pace with technological change. Competitors may gain an advantage over us by, for example, developing or using new products and production methods, introducing new products to the market sooner than we do, or securing exclusive rights to new technologies, thereby significantly harming our competitive position.

A substantial portion of our assets is farmland that is highly illiquid.

We have been successful in partially rotating and monetizing a portion of our investments in farmland. During the last thirteen years, we have executed transactions for the purchase and disposition of land for over $688 million. Ownership of a significant portion of the land we operate is a key part of our business model. However, agricultural real estate is generally an illiquid asset. Moreover, the adoption of laws and regulations that impose limitations on ownership of rural land by foreigners in the jurisdictions in which we operate may also limit the liquidity of our farmland holdings. See “—Risks Related to Argentina—Argentine law concerning foreign ownership of rural properties may adversely affect our results of operations and future investments in rural properties in Argentina” and “—Risks Related to Brazil—Recent changes in Brazilian rules concerning foreign investment in rural properties may adversely affect our investments.” As a result, it is unlikely that we will be able to adjust our owned agricultural real estate portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic, business or regulatory conditions. Illiquidity in local market conditions may adversely affect our ability to complete dispositions, to receive proceeds generated from any such sales or to repatriate any such proceeds.

We have entered into agriculture partnership agreements in respect of a significant portion of our sugarcane plantations.

As of December 31, 2016, approximately 93% of our sugarcane plantations were leased through agriculture partnership agreements, for periods of an average of six to twelve years. We cannot guarantee that these agriculture partnerships will be renewed after their respective terms. Even if we are able to renew these agreements, we cannot guarantee that such renewals will be on terms and conditions satisfactory to us. Any failure to renew the agriculture partnerships or obtain land suitable for sugarcane planting in sufficient quantity and at reasonable prices to develop our activities could adversely affect our results of operations, increase our costs or force us to seek alternative properties, which may not be available or be available only at higher prices.

We may be subject to labor disputes from time to time that may adversely affect us.

Our employees are represented by unions or equivalent bodies and are covered by collective bargaining or similar agreements which are subject to periodic renegotiation. We may not successfully conclude our labor negotiations on satisfactory terms, which may result in a significant increase in the cost of labor or may result in work stoppages or labor disturbances that disrupt our operations. Cost increases, work stoppages or disturbances that result in substantial amounts of raw product not being processed could have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

| 16 |

We may not possess all of the permits and licenses required to operate our business, or we may fail to renew or maintain the licenses and permits we currently hold. This could subject us to fines and other penalties, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations.

We are required to hold a variety of permits and licenses to conduct our farming and industrial operations, including but not limited to permits and licenses concerning land development, agricultural and harvesting activities, seed production, labor standards, occupational health and safety, land use, water use and other matters. We may not possess all of the permits and licenses required for each of our business segments. In addition, the approvals, permits or licenses required by governmental agencies may change without substantial advance notice, and we could fail to obtain the approvals, permits or licenses required to expand our business. If we fail to obtain or to maintain such permits or licenses, or if renewals are granted with onerous conditions, we could be subject to fines and other penalties and be limited in the number or the quality of the products that we could offer. As a result, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

We are subject to extensive environmental regulation, and concerns regarding climate change may subject us to even stricter environmental regulations.

Our activities are subject to a broad set of laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. Such laws include compulsory maintenance of certain preserved areas within our properties, management of pesticides and associated hazardous waste and the acquisition of permits for water use and effluents disposal. In addition, the storage and processing of our products may create hazardous conditions. We could be exposed to criminal and administrative penalties in addition to the obligation to remedy the adverse effects of our operations on the environment and to indemnify third parties for damages.

In addition, pursuant to Brazilian environmental legislation, the corporate entity of a company will be disregarded (such that the owners of the company will be liable for its debts) if necessary to guarantee the payment of costs related to the recovery of environmental damages, whenever the legal entity is deemed by a court to be an obstacle to reimbursement of damages caused to the quality of the environment. We have incurred, and will continue to incur, capital and operating expenditures to comply with these laws and regulations. Because of the possibility of unanticipated regulatory measures or other developments, particularly as environmental laws become more stringent, the amount and timing of future expenditures required to maintain compliance could increase from current levels and could adversely affect the availability of funds for capital expenditures and other purposes. Compliance with existing or new environmental laws and regulations, as well as obligations in agreements with public entities, could result in increased costs and expenses.

Environmental laws and their enforcement are becoming more stringent in Argentina and Brazil increasing the risk of and penalties associated with violations, which could impair or suspend our operations or projects and our operations expose us to potentially adverse environmental legislation and regulation. Failure to comply with past, present or future laws could result in the imposition of fines, third party claims, and investigation by environmental authorities and the relevant public attorney office. For example, the perceived effects of climate change may result in additional legal and regulatory requirements to reduce or mitigate the effects of our industrial facilities’ emissions. Such requirements, if enacted, could increase our capital expenditures and expenses for environmental compliance in the future, which may have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, the denial of any permit that we have requested, or the revocation of any of the permits that we have already obtained, may have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

Some of the agricultural commodities and food products that we produce contain genetically modified organisms.

Our soybean, corn and cotton products contain GMOs in varying proportions depending on the year and the country of production. The use of GMOs in food has been met with varying degrees of acceptance in the markets in which we operate. The United States, Argentina and Brazil, for example, have approved the use of GMOs in food products, and GMO and non-GMO grain in those countries is produced and frequently commingled during the grain origination process. Elsewhere, adverse publicity about genetically modified food has led to governmental regulation limiting sales of GMO products in some of the markets in which our customers sell our products, including the European Union. It is possible that new restrictions on GMO products will be imposed in major markets for some of our products or that our customers will decide to purchase fewer GMO products or not buy GMO products at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or prospects.

| 17 |

Increased regulation of food safety could increase our costs and adversely affect our results of operations.

Our manufacturing facilities and products are subject to regular local, as well as foreign, governmental inspections and extensive regulation in the food safety area, including governmental food processing controls. We currently comply with all food safety requirements in the markets where we conduct our business. We already incur significant costs in connection with such compliance and changes in government regulations relating to food safety could require us to make additional investments or incur additional costs to meet the necessary specifications for our products. Our products are often inspected by foreign food safety officials, and any failure to pass those inspections can result in our being required to return all or part of a shipment, destroy all or part of a shipment or incur costs because of delays in delivering products to our customers. Any tightening of food safety regulations could result in increased costs and could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

If our products become contaminated, we may be subject to product liability claims, product recalls and restrictions on exports that would adversely affect our business.

The sale of food products for human consumption involves the risk of injury to consumers. These injuries may result from tampering by third parties, bioterrorism, product contamination or spoilage, including the presence of bacteria, pathogens, foreign objects, substances, chemicals, other agents, or residues introduced during the growing, storage, handling or transportation phases.

We cannot be sure that consumption of our products will not cause a health-related illness in the future or that we will not be subject to claims or lawsuits relating to such matters. Even if a product liability claim is unsuccessful or is not fully pursued, the negative publicity surrounding any assertion that our products caused illness or injury could adversely affect our reputation with existing and potential customers and our corporate and brand image, and we could also incur significant legal expenses. Moreover, claims or liabilities of this nature might not be covered by any rights of indemnity or contribution that we may have against others, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

IFRS accounting standards related to biological assets require us to make numerous estimates in the preparation of our financial statements and therefore limit the comparability of our financial statements to similar issuers using U.S. GAAP.

IAS 41 “Biological Assets” requires that we measure our biological assets and agriculture produce at the point of harvest at fair value less costs to sell. Therefore, we are required to make assumptions and estimates relating to, among other things, future agricultural commodity yields, prices, and production costs extrapolated through a discounted cash flow method. For example, the value of our biological assets generated initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets amounting to a $125,4 million gain in 2016; $54.5 million gain in 2015 and a $100.2 million gain in 2014. The assumptions and estimates used to determine the fair value of biological assets, and any changes to such prior estimates, directly affect our reported results of operations. If actual market conditions differ from our estimates and assumptions, there could be material adjustments to our results of operations. In addition, the use of such discounted cash flow method utilizing these future estimated metrics differs from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). As a result, our financial statements and reported earnings are not directly comparable to those of similar companies in the United States.

IASB amended IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment” and IAS 41 “Agriculture,” which distinguish bearer plants from other biological assets. Bearer plants are used solely to grow produce over their productive lives and are considered to bear more resemblance to machinery and equipment (IAS 16) than other biological assets (under IAS 41). Accordingly, they are now accounted for under IAS 16. However, the agricultural produce growing on bearer plants remains within the scope of IAS 41 and is measured at fair value less cost to sell. The amendments were applicable for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

| 18 |

Our sugarcane and coffee plantations qualify as bearer plants under the new definition in IAS 41. As required under IAS 8, “Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors”, we effected the change in accounting policy retrospectively. Consequently, effective January 1, 2016, our sugarcane and coffee plantations were reclassified to property, plant and equipment, measured at amortized cost and depreciated over their useful life on a straight-line basis. We adopted the transitional rule provided for in the amendment, which allowed us to apply the fair value of bearer plants as their deemed cost as of January 1, 2014. Accordingly, we revised the comparative amounts financial data for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. Financial data for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 have not been revised, and is not comparable to financial data for the years 2016, 2015 and 2014.

For further information, and an analysis of the impact of the adoption of IAS 41 and IAS 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements please see Note 32.1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Certain of our subsidiaries have substantial indebtedness which could impair their financial condition and decrease the amount of dividends we receive.

Certain of our subsidiaries in Argentina and Brazil have a substantial amount of debt, which requires significant principal and interest payments. As of December 31, 2016, we had $635.4 million of debt outstanding on a consolidated basis, all of which was incurred by our subsidiaries and not guaranteed by Adecoagro. Such indebtedness could affect our subsidiaries’ future operations, for example, by requiring a substantial portion of their cash flows from operations to be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on indebtedness instead of funding working capital and capital improvements and other investments. The substantial amount of debt incurred by our subsidiaries also imposes significant debt obligations, increasing their cost of borrowing to satisfy business needs and limiting their ability to obtain additional financing.

The substantial level of indebtedness borne by certain of our subsidiaries also affects the amount of cash available to them to pay as dividends, increasing our vulnerability to economic downturns or other adverse developments relative to competitors with less leverage, and limiting our ability to obtain additional financing on their behalf for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other corporate purposes in the future. Moreover, by reducing the level of dividends we may receive, such indebtedness places limits on our ability to make acquisitions or needed capital expenditures or to pay dividends to our shareholders.

The terms of the indebtedness of certain of our subsidiaries impose significant restrictions on their operating and financial flexibility.

The debt instruments of some of our subsidiaries contain customary covenants including limitations on their ability to, among other things, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; make restricted payments, including dividends and prepaying indebtedness; create or permit liens; enter into business combinations and asset sale transactions; make investments, including capital expenditures; and enter into new businesses. Some of these debt instruments are also secured by various collateral including mortgages on farms, pledges of subsidiary stock and liens on certain facilities, equipment and accounts. Some of these debt instruments also contain cross-default provisions, where a default on one loan by one subsidiary could result in lenders of otherwise performing loans declaring a default. These restrictions could limit our subsidiaries’ ability to obtain future financing, withstand a future downturn in business or the economy in general, conduct operations or otherwise take advantage of business opportunities that may arise. Moreover, by reducing the level of dividends we may receive, this indebtedness places limits on our ability to make acquisitions or needed capital expenditures or to pay dividends to our shareholders.

The financial ratio covenants we are currently required to meet, some of which are measured on a combined basis aggregating results of the borrowing subsidiaries and others which are measured on an individual debtor basis, include, among others, debt service coverage, minimum liquidity and leverage ratios.

The failure by our subsidiaries to maintain applicable financial ratios, in certain circumstances, would prevent them from borrowing additional amounts and could result in a default under such indebtedness. If we or our subsidiaries are unable to repay those amounts, the affected lenders could initiate bankruptcy-related proceedings or enforce their rights to the collateral securing such indebtedness, which would have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Fluctuations in interest rates could have a significant impact on our results of operations, indebtedness and cash flow.

As of December 31, 2016, approximately 33.8% of our total debt on a consolidated basis was subject to fixed interest rates and 66.2% was subject to variable interest rates. As of December 31, 2016, borrowings incurred by the Company’s subsidiaries in Brazil were repayable at various dates between January 2017 and April 2024 and bear either fixed interest rates ranging from 2.5% to 9.0% per annum or variable rates based on LIBOR or other specific base-rates plus spreads ranging from 4.13% to 17.52% per annum. At December 31, 2016, LIBOR (six months) was 1.32%. Borrowings incurred by the Company´s subsidiaries in Argentina are repayable at various dates between January 2017 and November 2023 and bear either fixed interest rates ranging from 6.11% to 7.00% per annum. Significant interest rate increases can have an adverse effect on our profitability, liquidity and financial position. Currently, our variable interest rate exposure is mainly linked to the LIBOR rate plus specified spreads. If interest rates increase, whether because of an increase in market interest rates or an increase in our own cost of borrowing, our debt service obligations for our variable rate indebtedness would increase even though the amount of borrowings remains the same, and our net income could be adversely affected.

We occasionally use interest rate swaps and forward interest rate contracts to reduce interest rate volatility and funding costs associated with certain debt issues and to achieve a desired proportion of variable-versus fixed-rate debt, based on current and projected market conditions. We have not applied hedge accounting to these transactions and may not do so in the future. Therefore, changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments can result in a non-cash charge or gain being recognized in our financial results for a period preceding the period or periods in which settlement occurs under the derivative instruments and interest payments are made. Changes or shifts in interest rates can significantly impact the valuation of our derivatives and therefore could expose us to substantial mark-to-market losses or gains if interest rates fluctuate materially from the time when the derivatives were entered into. Accordingly, fluctuations in interest rates may impact our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. See “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk”.

We may not be able to renew our credit lines when they mature, depriving us of needed liquidity.

Certain of our subsidiaries rely substantially on existing uncommitted credit lines to support their operations and business needs through the agricultural harvest cycle. If we are unable to renew these credit lines, or if we cannot replace such credit lines with other borrowing facilities, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

There is a risk that we could be treated as a U.S. domestic corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which could materially increase our U.S. federal income tax liability and subject any dividends we pay to U.S. federal withholding tax.

We acquired approximately 98% of IFH, a holding company, which was a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes organized under the laws of Delaware, immediately prior to our IPO, in exchange for our common shares. Under U.S. Internal Revenue Code section 7874(b), we would be treated as a U.S. domestic corporation if we were deemed to have acquired substantially all of the assets constituting the trade or business of a U.S. domestic partnership and former members of IFH were deemed to own at least 80% of our common shares by reason of the transfer of those trade or business assets (ignoring common shares issued in our IPO for purposes of the 80% threshold). Although we and our subsidiaries conduct no direct business activity in the United States and we believe that our acquisition of IFH should not be subject to the rules above, those rules are unclear in certain respects and there is limited guidance on the application of the rules to partnership acquisitions. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) will not seek to assert that we are a U.S. domestic corporation, which assertion if successful could materially increase our U.S. federal income tax liability and require us to withhold tax from any dividends we pay to holders of our common shares who are not United States persons within the meaning of U.S. Internal Revenue Code section 7701(a)(30). See “Item 10. Additional Information—E. Taxation” .

We may be classified by the IRS as a “passive foreign investment company” (a “PFIC”), which may result in adverse tax consequences for U.S. investors.

We believe that we will not be a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for our current taxable year and do not expect to become one in the foreseeable future. Whether the Company will be a PFIC for the current or future tax year will depend on the Company’s assets and income over the course of each such tax year and, as a result, cannot be predicted with certainty as of the date of this Form 20-F. Under circumstances where the cash is not deployed for active purposes, our risk of becoming a PFIC may increase. If we were treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. investor held common shares, certain adverse tax consequences could apply to such U.S. investor. A U.S. taxpayer who holds stock in a foreign corporation during any year in which such corporation qualifies as a PFIC may mitigate such negative tax consequences by making certain U.S. federal income tax elections, which are subject to numerous restrictions and limitations. Holders of the Company’s common shares are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of the Company’s common shares. See “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S. Holders—Passive Foreign Investment Company (“PFIC”) Rules”.

Risks associated with the Countries in which we operate

We operate our business in emerging markets. Our results of operations and financial condition are dependent upon economic conditions in those countries in which we operate, and any decline in economic conditions could harm our results of operations or financial condition.

All of our operations and/or development activities are in South America. As of December 31, 2016, based on total asset value, 26.9% of our assets were located in Argentina, 69.2% in Brazil and 3.8% in Uruguay. Adjusting our farmland book value by the market value derived from the Cushman and Wakefield independent farmland appraisal, the allocation would result in a 50.3% value attributable to Argentina, a 47.0% value attributable to Brazil and a 2.7% value attributable to Uruguay. During the year ended December 31, 2016, 49.8% of our consolidated sales of goods and services rendered were attributable to our Brazilian operations, 18.9% were attributable to our Argentine operations and 31.4% were attributable to our Uruguayan operations. In the future we expect to have additional operations in the South American countries in which we now operate or in other countries with similar political, economic and social conditions. Many of these countries have a history of economic instability or crises (such as inflation or recession), government deadlock, political instability, civil strife, changes in laws and regulations, expropriation or nationalization of property, and exchange controls which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In particular, fluctuations in the economies of Argentina and Brazil and actions adopted by the governments of those countries have had and may continue to have a significant impact on companies operating in those countries, including us. Specifically, we have been affected and may continue to be affected by inflation, increased interest rates, fluctuations in the value of the Argentine Peso and Brazilian Real against foreign currencies, price and foreign exchange controls, regulatory policies, business and tax regulations and in general by the political, social and economic scenarios in Argentina and Brazil and in other countries that may affect Argentina and Brazil.

The economies of the countries in which we operate may be adversely affected by the deterioration of other global markets.

Financial and securities markets in the countries in which we operate are influenced, to different degrees, by the economic and market conditions in other countries, including other South American and emerging market countries and other global markets. Although economic conditions in these countries may differ significantly from economic conditions in the countries in which we operate, investors’ reactions to developments in these other countries, such as the recent developments in the global financial markets, may substantially affect the capital flows into, and the market value of securities of issuers with operations in, the countries in which we operate. A crisis in other emerging market countries could dampen investor enthusiasm for securities of issuers with South American operations, including our common shares. This could adversely affect the market price for our common shares, as well as make it difficult for us to access capital markets and obtain financing for our operations in the future, on acceptable terms or under any conditions.

A significant deterioration in the economic growth of any of the main trading partners of Brazil or Argentina could have a material impact on the trade balance of those countries and could adversely affect their economic growth and that of other countries in the region.

| 21 |

Governments have a high degree of influence in the economies in which we operate, which could adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition.

Governments in many of the markets in which we currently, or may in the future operate frequently intervene in their respective economies and occasionally make significant changes in monetary, credit, industry and other policies and regulations. Government actions to control inflation and other policies and regulations have often involved, among other measures, price controls, currency devaluations, capital controls and limits on imports. We have no control over, and cannot predict what measures or policies governments may take in the future. The results of operations and financial condition of our businesses may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policy or regulations in the jurisdictions in which they operate that impact factors such as:

| • | labor laws;

| • | economic growth;

| • | currency fluctuations;

| • | inflation;

| • | exchange and capital control policies;

| • | interest rates;

| • | liquidity of domestic capital and lending markets;

| • | monetary policy;

| • | liquidity and solvency of the financial system;

| • | limitations on ownership of rural land by foreigners;

| • | developments in trade negotiations through the World Trade Organization or other international organizations;

| • | environmental regulations;

| • | tax laws, including royalties and the effect of tax laws on distributions from our subsidiaries;

| • | restrictions on repatriation of investments and on the transfer of funds abroad;

| • | expropriation or nationalization;

| • | import/export restrictions or other laws and policies affecting foreign trade and investment;

| • | price controls or price fixing regulations;

| • | restrictions on land acquisition or use or agricultural commodity production; and

| • | other political, social and economic developments, including political, social or economic instability, in or affecting the country where each business is based.

Uncertainty over whether governments will implement changes in policy or regulation affecting these or other factors in the future may contribute to economic uncertainty and heightened volatility in the securities markets, which may have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Currency exchange rate fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar in the countries in which we operate our businesses may adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition.

We operate exclusively outside the United States, and our businesses may be impacted by significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Our exposure to currency exchange rate fluctuations results from the currency translation adjustments required in connection with the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements. The currency exchange exposure stems from the generation of revenues and incurrence of expenses in different currencies and the devaluation of local currency revenues impairing the value of investments in U.S. Dollars. While the Consolidated Financial Statements presented herein are, and our future Consolidated Financial Statements will be, presented in U.S. dollars, the financial statements of our subsidiaries are prepared using the local currency as the functional currency and translated into U.S. dollars by applying: (i) a year-end exchange rate for assets and liabilities; and (ii) an average exchange rate for the year for income and expenses. Resulting exchange differences arising from the translation to our presentation currency are recognized as a separate component of equity. Currencies in Argentina and Brazil have fluctuated significantly against the U.S. dollar in the past. Accordingly, fluctuations in exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar could impair the comparability of our results from period to period and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

The Argentine Peso depreciated 8.08% against the U.S. dollar in 2011, 14.4% in 2012, 32.5% in 2013, 31.2% in 2014, 52.1% in 2015 and 21.9% in 2016, based on the official exchange rates published by the Argentine Central Bank. In the past years, the Argentine government imposed restrictions on the purchase of foreign currency (see “—Risks Related to Argentina—Exchange controls could restrict the inflow and outflow of funds in Argentina.”) which measures gave rise to an unofficial market where the U.S. dollar traded at a different market value than reflected in the official Argentine Peso – U.S. Dollar exchange rate. Following national elections in Argentina in 2015, the newly elected Macri administration (the “Macri Administration”) changed the currency policy and lifted almost all of the restrictions on the purchase of foreign currency while at the same time officially depreciating the Argentine Peso, practically eliminating the gap between the official and unofficial exchange rates that coexisted during the previous years. We cannot predict future fluctuations in the exchange rate of the Argentine Peso or whether the Argentine government will change its currency policy.

| 22 |

The Brazilian currency has historically suffered frequent fluctuations. As a consequence of inflationary pressures, in the past, the Brazilian government has implemented various economic plans and adopted a number of exchange rate policies, including sudden devaluations, periodic mini-devaluations during which the frequency of adjustments has ranged from daily to monthly, floating exchange rate systems, exchange controls and dual exchange rate markets. Formally the value of the Real against foreign currencies is determined under a free-floating exchange rate regime, but in fact the Brazilian government is currently intervening in the market, through currency swaps and trading in the spot market, among other measures, every time the currency exchange rate is above or below the levels that the Brazilian government considers appropriate, taking into account, inflation, growth, the performance of the Real against the U.S dollar in comparison with other currencies and other economic factors. Periodically, there are significant fluctuations in the value of the Real against the U.S. dollar. The Real depreciated 12.37% against the U.S. dollar in 2011, 9.90% in 2012, 15.13% in 2013, 12.52% in 2014, 49.04% in 2015, and in 2016 the Real appreciated 16,54% against U.S. dollar.

Future fluctuations in the value of the local currencies relative to the U.S. dollar in the countries in which we operate may occur, and if such fluctuations were to occur in one or a combination of the countries in which we operate, our results of operations or financial condition could be adversely affected.

Inflation in some of the countries in which we operate, along with governmental measures to curb inflation, may have a significant negative effect on the economies of those countries and, as a result, on our financial condition and results of operations.

In the past, high levels of inflation have adversely affected the economies and financial markets of some of the countries in which we operate, particularly Argentina and Brazil, and the ability of their governments to create conditions that stimulate or maintain economic growth. Moreover, governmental measures to curb inflation and speculation about possible future governmental measures have contributed to the negative economic impact of inflation and have created general economic uncertainty. As part of these measures, governments have at times maintained a restrictive monetary policy and high interest rates that has limited the availability of credit and economic growth.

A portion of our operating costs in Argentina are denominated in Argentine Pesos and most of our operating costs in Brazil are denominated in Brazilian Reais. Inflation in Argentina or Brazil, without a corresponding Peso or Real devaluation, could result in an increase in our operating costs without a commensurate increase in our revenues, which could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to pay our foreign currency denominated obligations.

After several years of price stability in Argentina, the devaluation of the Peso in January 2002 imposed pressures on the domestic price system that generated high inflation throughout 2002. In 2003, inflation decreased significantly and stabilized. However, in recent years, encouraged by the pace of economic growth, according to the Instituto Nacional de Estadisticas y Censos, or “INDEC” (Argentine Statistics and Census Agency), the consumer price index increased by 9.5% in 2011, 10.8% in 2012, and 10.9% in 2013; while the wholesale price index increased 10.3% in 2009, 14.6% in 2010, 12.7% in 2011, 13.1% in 2012, 14.7% in 2013 and 28.3% in 2014. The accuracy of the measurements of the INDEC has been questioned in the past, and the actual consumer price index and wholesale price index could be substantially higher than those indicated by the INDEC. See “—Risks Related to Argentina—Official data regarding inflation may be unreliable.”

In February 2014 the INDEC modified the methodology for the calculation of the consumer price index (“CPI”) and the gross domestic product. Under the new calculation methodology, the CPI increased by 23.9% in 2014 and 11.9% as of October 2015 (for the first nine months of 2015). However, opposition lawmakers reported an inflation rate of 38.5% and 27.5%, respectively. In December 2015, the Macri administration appointed a former director of a private consulting firm to manage the INDEC. The new director initially suspended the publication of any official data prepared by INDEC and implemented certain methodological reforms and adjusted certain indices based on those reforms. In January 25, 2016, INDEC published two alternative measures of the CPI for the year 2015, 29.6% and 31.6%, which were based on data from the City of Buenos Aires and the Province of San Luis. After implementing these methodological reforms in June 2016, the INDEC resumed its publication of the consumer price index. According to INDEC, Argentina´s rate of inflation for May, June, July, August, September, October, November and December 2016 was 4.2%, 3.1%, 2%, 0.2%, 1.1%, 2.4%, 1.6% and 1.2%, respectively.

Brazil has historically experienced high rates of inflation. Inflation, as well as government efforts to curb inflation, has had significant negative effects on the Brazilian economy, particularly prior to 1995. Inflation rates were 7.8% in 2007 and 9.8% in 2008, compared to deflation of 1.7% in 2009, inflation of 11.3% in 2010, inflation of 5.1% in 2011, inflation of 7.8% in 2012, inflation of 5.5% in 2013, inflation of 3.7% in 2014, inflation of 10.5% in 2015, and 7.2% accumulated in the year ended on December 31, 2016, as measured by the General Market Price Index (Indice Geral de Preços — Mercado), compiled by the Getúlio Vargas Foundation (Fundação Getúlio Vargas). A significant proportion of our cash costs and our operating expenses are denominated in Brazilian Reais and tend to increase with Brazilian inflation. The Brazilian government’s measures to control inflation have in the past included maintaining a tight monetary policy with high interest rates, thereby restricting the availability of credit and reducing economic growth. This policy has changed in the last two years, when the Brazilian government decreased the interest rate by 525 basis points. Subsequently, the high inflation, arising from the lower interest rate, and the intention to maintain this rate at low levels, led the Brazilian government to adopt other measures to control inflation, such as tax relief for several sectors of the economy and tax cuts for the products included in the basic food basket. These measures were not sufficient to control the inflation, which led the Brazilian government to reinstate a tighter monetary policy. As a result, interest rates have fluctuated significantly. The Special System for Settlement and Custody (Sistema Especial de Liquidação e Custódia, or “SELIC”) interest rate in Brazil at year-end was 13.25% in 2006, 11.25% in 2007, 13.75% in 2008, 8.75% in 2009, 10.75% in 2010, 11.0% in 2011, and 7.25% in 2012, 10.0% in 2013, 11.75% in 2014, 14.25% in 2015 as determined by the Comitê de Política Monetária, or COPOM. In the quarter ended on December 31, 2016, the SELIC was 13.75%.

Argentina and/or Brazil may experience high levels of inflation in the future, which may impact domestic demand for our products. Inflationary pressures may also weaken investor confidence in Argentina and/or Brazil, curtail our ability to access foreign financial markets and lead to further government intervention in the economy, including interest rate increases, restrictions on tariff adjustments to offset inflation, intervention in foreign exchange markets and actions to adjust or fix currency values, which may trigger or exacerbate increases in inflation, and consequently have an adverse impact on us. In an inflationary environment, the value of uncollected accounts receivable, as well as of unpaid accounts payable, declines rapidly. If the countries in which we operate experience high levels of inflation in the future and price controls are imposed, we may not be able to adjust the rates we charge our customers to fully offset the impact of inflation on our cost structures, which could adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition.

Depreciation of the Peso or the Real relative to the U.S. Dollar or the Euro may also create additional inflationary pressures in Argentina or Brazil that may negatively affect us. Depreciation generally curtails access to foreign financial markets and may prompt government intervention, including recessionary governmental policies. Depreciation also reduces the U.S. Dollar or Euro value of dividends and other distributions on our common shares and the U.S. Dollar or Euro equivalent of the market price of our common shares. Any of the foregoing might adversely affect our business, operating results, and cash flow, as well as the market price of our common shares.

Conversely, in the short term, a significant increase in the value of the Peso or the Real against the U.S. Dollar would adversely affect the respective Argentine and/or Brazilian government’s income from exports. This could have a negative effect on gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth and employment and could also reduce the public sector’s revenues in those countries by reducing tax collection in real terms, as a portion of public sector revenues are derived from the collection of export taxes.

| 24 |

Disruption of transportation and logistics services or insufficient investment in public infrastructure could adversely affect our operating results.

One of the principal disadvantages of the agricultural sector in the countries in which we operate is that key growing regions lie far from major ports. As a result, efficient access to transportation infrastructure and ports is critical to the growth of agriculture as a whole in the countries in which we operate and of our operations in particular. Improvements in transportation infrastructure are likely to be required to make more agricultural production accessible to export terminals at competitive prices. A substantial portion of agricultural production in the countries in which we operate is currently transported by truck, a means of transportation significantly more expensive than the rail transportation available to U.S. and other international producers. Our dependence on truck transportation may affect our position as a low-cost producer so that our ability to compete in the world markets may be impaired.

Even though road and rail improvement projects have been considered for some areas of Brazil, and in some cases implemented, substantial investments are required for road and rail improvement projects, which may not be completed on a timely basis, if at all. Any delay or failure in developing infrastructure systems could reduce the demand for our products, impede our products’ delivery or impose additional costs on us. We currently outsource the transportation and logistics services necessary to operate our business. Any disruption in these services could result in supply problems at our farms and processing facilities and impair our ability to deliver our products to our customers in a timely manner.

Risks Related to Argentina

Argentine economic and political conditions and perceptions of these conditions in the international market may have a direct impact on our business and our access to international capital and debt markets, and could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

A significant portion of our operations, properties and customers are located in Argentina. The Argentine economy has experienced significant volatility in recent decades, characterized by periods of low or negative growth, high and variable levels of inflation and currency devaluation. Between 2001 and 2003 Argentina experienced a period of severe political, economic and social crisis. In 2002, the enactment of Law No. 25,561 (the “Public Emergency Law”) ended more than a decade of uninterrupted Peso/dollar parity, and the value of the Peso against the U.S. dollar has fluctuated significantly since then.

Although general economic conditions in Argentina recovered after the 2001-2003 period of severe economic crisis, a period of significant economic uncertainty followed. This is mainly because the economic growth was initially dependent on a significant devaluation of the Argentine Peso, a high excess production capacity resulting from a long period of deep recession and high commodity prices. The rise in these prices has contributed to the increase in Argentine exports since the third quarter of 2002 and to high government tax revenues from export taxes. However, the reliance on the export of certain commodities has caused the Argentine economy to be more vulnerable to price fluctuations. The global economic crisis of 2008 led to a period of economic decline, accompanied by political and social unrest, inflationary and Peso depreciation pressures and lack of consumer and investor confidence. The lingering economic crises in Europe, including the financial crisis in Greece, Spain, Italy and Portugal, the international demand for Argentine products, the stability and competitiveness of the Peso against foreign currencies, confidence among consumers and foreign and domestic investors, the stability and level of inflation and the future political uncertainties, among other factors, may also affect the development of the Argentine economy.

Since 2011, the economic conditions have continued to deteriorate, due to, among other things, the rise of inflation, the continued demand for salary increases, the growth of the fiscal deficit, the required payments to be made on public debt, the reduction of industrial growth, the recession and the increase of the capital outflows from Argentina. The foregoing prevailing economic conditions forced the Argentine government to adopt different measures, including the tightening of foreign exchange controls, the elimination of subsidies to the private sector and the proposals for new taxes. See “—Risks Related to Argentina—Changes in the Argentine tax laws may adversely affect the results of our operations”.

| 25 |

Since the beginning of 2015, international commodity prices for Argentina’s primary commodity exports have declined, which has had an adverse effect on Argentina’s economic growth. A continued decline in the international prices for Argentina’s main commodity exports could have a direct negative effect on our business, results of operation and financial condition, as well as on Argentina’s economy.

According to the INDEC, Argentina’s GDP, in real terms, grew by 9.2% in 2010, 8.9% in 2011, 1.9% in 2012, 5.6% in 2013 and 0.5% in 2014. The GDP for the first two quarters of 2015 grew by 1.1% and 2.3%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2014. See “—Risks related to Argentina—Official data regarding inflation may be unreliable” and “—Risks Associated with the Countries in which We Operate—Inflation in some of the countries in which we operate, along with governmental measures to combat inflation, may have a significant negative effect on the economies of those countries and, as a result, on our financial condition and results of operations”. The INDEC originally reported a GDP for 2013 equal to 5.6%. However, in February 2014 the INDEC modified the methodology for the calculation of the GDP and released a new GDP index for 2013, equal to 3.00% and 0.5% for 2014. Because of the implementation of certain methodological reforms by the Macri administration and the adjustment of certain indices based on these reforms, the INDEC also revised the GDP data from 2004 through 2015. Among other adjustments, in calculating GDP for 2004, the INDEC made changes to the composition of GDP that resulted in a negative adjustment of approximately 12% for that year. To calculate real GDP for subsequent years based on the revised 2004 GDP, the INDEC used deflators that are consistent with its revised methodology to calculate inflation. By previously understating inflation, the INDEC had overstated economic growth in real terms. The adjustments made by the INDEC lead to a determination of real GDP growth of 48.6% for the period of 2004 to 2015, as opposed to 65% growth in real terms for the same period resulting from the information used prior to June 2016. We cannot assure you that any future official information regarding GDP will be reliable or whether the GDP will increase or remain stable in the future.

In the recent past, social and political tension and high levels of poverty and unemployment have persisted and in recent months industrial activity and consumption has diminished considerably. The deterioration of the economy significantly increased the social and political turmoil, including civil unrest, riots, looting, nationwide protests, strikes and street demonstrations. Due to the high levels of inflation and devaluation, employers both in the public and private sectors are experiencing significant pressure from organized labor unions and their employees to further increase salaries. See “—Risks related to Argentina—The Argentine government may order salary increases to be paid to employees in the private sector, which would increase our operating costs”.

In addition, during the recent past the Argentine Central Bank’s reserves have suffered a substantial decrease mainly as a consequence of the increasing need to import energy and payments of sovereign debt. The reduction of the Argentine Central Bank’s reserves may weaken Argentina’s ability to overcome economic deterioration. This could inhibit the ability of the Argentine Central Bank to adopt measures to curb inflation and could adversely affect Argentina’s economic growth and public finances.

Presidential, congressional and state government elections were held during 2015 (with the majority of such elections occurring in October 2015). Presidential elections were won by the opposing political party, led by Mauricio Macri, after conducting the first run-off in Argentine history. The elected government, in office since December 10, 2015, has announced and adopted several significant economic and policy reforms:

| · | INDEC Reforms: On January 8, 2016, based on the determination that the INDEC has failed to produce reliable statistical information, particularly with respect to the CPI, GDP, poverty and foreign trade data, the Macri administration declared the national statistical system and the INDEC in a state of administrative emergency. As a result, the INDEC ceased publishing certain key statistical data until a rearrangement of its technical and administrative structure is finalized. In June 2016, the INDEC resumed its publication of the CPI. As of the date of this annual report, the INDEC has begun publishing certain revised data, including GDP, foreign trade and balance of payment statistics, although it remains in a state of administrative emergency. See “—Risks related to Argentina—Official data regarding inflation may be unreliable”.

| · | Foreign Exchange Reforms: The elected government has also introduced substantial changes to the foreign exchange restrictions, reversing most of the restrictions adopted since 2011, thus providing greater flexibility and access to the foreign exchange market.

| · | Foreign trade reforms. The Macri administration eliminated export duties on wheat, corn, beef and regional products, and reduced the duty on soybeans from 35% to 30%. Further, the 5% export duty on most industrial and mining exports was eliminated.

| · | Primary Balance. The Macri administration announced its intention to reduce the primary deficit in part by eliminating public services subsidies currently in effect.

| · | Infrastructure state of emergency and reforms. The Macri administration issued Resolution No. 6/2016 of the Ministerio de Energía y Minería de la Nación (National Ministry of Energy and Mining) and Resolution No. 1/2016 of the Ente Nacional Regulador de la Electricidad (National Electricity Regulatory Agency), through which the Macri administration announced the elimination of some energy subsidies currently in effect and a substantial increase in electricity rates. Additionally, the government declared a state of emergency with respect to the national electrical system, which is expected to remain effective until December 31, 2017. Under this state of emergency, the Macri administration will be permitted to take actions designed to guarantee the supply of electricity.

We cannot predict the impact that these policies or any future polices implemented by the Macri administration or any other national government will have on the Argentine economy as a whole or on our business, results of operation or financial condition, in particular. Moreover, there is uncertainty as to when and if other measures announced during the presidential campaign will be implemented. Some of the measures proposed by the Macri administration may also generate political and social opposition, which may in turn prevent the new government from adopting such measures as proposed. In addition, political parties opposed to the new government retained a majority of the seats in the Argentine Congress in the recent elections, which will require the new government to seek political support from the opposition for its economic proposals and creates further uncertainty in the ability of the new government to pass measures. Political uncertainty in Argentina relating to the measures to be taken by the Macri administration in respect of the Argentine economy could lead to volatility in the market prices of securities of Argentine companies.

A continued deterioration of the economic, social and/or political conditions may adversely affect the development of the Argentine economy and force the Macri administration to adopt future policies including forced renegotiation or modification of existing contracts, suspension of the enforcement of creditors’ rights, new taxation policies, including royalty and tax increases and retroactive tax claims, and changes in laws and policies affecting foreign trade and investment and salary increases, and/or the provision of additional employee benefits. Any such economic, social and/or political conditions and/or measures could materially affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The economy of Argentina may be affected by its government’s limited access to financing from international markets.

The Argentine economy has experienced significant instability in the past decades, including devaluations, high inflation, and prolonged periods of reduced economic growth, which have led to payment defaults on Argentina’s foreign debt and multiple downgrades in Argentina’s foreign debt rating with attendant restrictions on Argentina’s ability to obtain financing in the international markets.

Argentina’s 2001 sovereign default and its failure to fully restructure its sovereign debt and negotiate with the holdout creditors has limited and may continue to limit Argentina’s ability to access international financing. In 2005, Argentina completed the restructuring of a substantial portion of its indebtedness and settled all of its debt with the IMF. Additionally, in June 2010, Argentina completed the restructuring of a significant portion of the defaulted bonds that were not exchanged in the 2005 restructuring. As a result of debt exchanges carried out in 2005 and 2010, Argentina restructured approximately 93% of its defaulted debt that was eligible for restructuring. However, holdout bondholders that declined to participate in the restructuring, filed lawsuits against Argentina in several countries, including the United States. Since late 2012, rulings from courts in the United States favorable to holdout bondholders aggravated investors’ concerns regarding investment in the country.

| 27 |

In November 2012, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in re: “NML Capital, Ltd. v. Republic of Argentina”, ratified and amended the injunction order issued in February 2012, which held that Argentina violated the pari passu clause with respect to the bondholders that had not participated in the sovereign debt restructuring in 2005 and 2010. Pursuant to such ruling, Argentina was required to pay 100% of the amounts due to the plaintiffs, simultaneously with the payment of the amounts due on the next maturity date of the bonds to the bondholders who participated in the debt restructuring. In June 2014, the U.S. Supreme Court denied Argentina’s petition for a writ of certiorari of the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals’ ruling affirming the U.S. District Court’s judgment. Later that month, the U.S. District Court ruled that funds deposited with the Bank of New York Mellon, the trustee which manages payments for Argentina's bonds issued in the 2005 and 2010 debt restructuring, could not be delivered to the holders of restructured debt in the absence of a prior agreement with the holdout bondholders. In June 2015, the U.S. District Court granted partial summary judgment to a group of “me-too” plaintiffs in 36 separate lawsuits, finding that, consistent with the previous ruling of such court, Argentina violated the pari passu clause in the bonds issued to the “me-too” bondholders.

In February 2016, the Macri administration entered into settlement agreements with certain holdout bondholders to settle these claims, which were subject to the approval of the Argentine Congress and the lifting of the pari passu injunctions. In March 2016, after the U.S. District Court agreed to vacate the pari passu injunctions subject to certain conditions, the Argentine Congress ratified these settlement agreements through Law No. 27,249 and repealed the provisions of the so called Lock Law No. 26,017 and the Sovereign Payment Law No. 26,984, which prohibited Argentina from offering holdout bondholders more favorable terms than those offered in the 2005 and 2010 debt restructuring. In recent months, the Argentine national government has reached settlement agreements with holders of a significant portion of the defaulted bonds and has repaid the majority of the holdout creditors with the proceeds of a US$16.5 billion international offering of 3-year, 5-year, 10-year and 30-year bonds on April 22, 2016. Although the size of the claims involved has decreased significantly, litigation initiated by bondholders that have not accepted Argentina’s settlement offer continues in several jurisdictions.

Additionally, foreign shareholders of several Argentine companies have filed claims with the ICSID alleging that the emergency measures adopted by the Argentine national government since the crisis in 2001 and 2002 differ from the just and equal treatment standards set forth in several bilateral investment treaties to which Argentina is a party. ICSID has ruled against Argentina with respect to many of these claims.

Litigation involving holdout creditors, claims with ICSID and other claims against the Argentine national government, resulted and may result in material judgments against the government, lead to attachments of or injunctions relating to Argentina’s assets, or could cause Argentina to default under its other obligations, and such events may prevent Argentina from obtaining favorable terms or interest rates when accessing international capital markets or from accessing international financing at all. Our ability to obtain U.S. dollar-denominated financing has been adversely impacted by these factors. During 2014, 2015 and 2016, it became increasingly difficult for Argentine companies to obtain financing in U.S. dollars, and loans in local currencies carry significantly higher interest rates. The termination of the injunctions issued by the United States courts preventing bondholders from receiving their interest payments on the bonds issued pursuant to the 2005 and 2010 exchange offers, and the related subsequent events, have paved the way for the Argentine national government to regain access to the international capital markets. Nonetheless, Argentina’s ability to obtain international or multilateral private financing or direct foreign investment may be limited, which may in turn impair its ability to implement reforms and public policies to foster economic growth. In addition, Argentina’s ongoing litigation with the remaining holdout creditors as well as ICSID and other claims against the Argentine national government, or any future defaults of its financial obligations, may prevent us from accessing the international capital markets or cause the terms of any such transactions less favorable than those provided to companies in other countries in the region, potentially impacting our financial condition.

Without access to international private financing, Argentina may not be able to finance its obligations, and financing from multilateral financial institutions may be limited or not available. This could also inhibit the ability of the Argentine Central Bank to adopt measures to curb inflation and could adversely affect Argentina’s economic growth and public finances, which could, in turn, adversely affect our operations in Argentina, our financial condition or the results of our operations.

| 28 |

The lack of financing for Argentine companies may have an adverse effect on the results of our operations in Argentina and on the market price of our common shares.

The prospects for Argentine companies accessing financial markets are limited in terms of the amount of the financing available and the conditions and costs of such financing. The default on the Argentine sovereign debt and the global economic crisis has significantly limited the ability of Argentine companies to access international financial markets.

In addition, in November 2008, the Argentine Congress passed a law eliminating the private pension fund system and transferring all retirement and pension funds held by the pension fund administrators (Administradoras de Fondos de Jubilaciones y Pensiones, or “AFJPs”) to the National Social Security Administrative Office (Administración Nacional de la Seguridad Social). Because the AFJPs had been the major institutional investors in the Argentine capital markets, the nationalization of the pension fund system has led to a reduction of the liquidity available in the local Argentine capital markets. As of December 31, 2016, our subsidiaries in Argentina have relied on local Argentine financing for 28.5% of our total indebtedness. Lack of access to international or domestic financial markets could affect the projected capital expenditures for our operations in Argentina and, therefore, may have an adverse effect on the results of our operations in Argentina and on the market price of our common shares.

Argentine law concerning foreign ownership of rural properties may adversely affect our results of operations and future investments in rural properties in Argentina.

Law No. 26,737, passed by the Argentine Congress in December 2011, and its implementing regulation Decree No. 274/2012, as amended and supplemented by Decree No. 820/2016 dated as of February 28, 2012 and of June 30, 2016, respectively, impose limits on the ownership or possession of rural land by foreign legal entities or certain foreign individuals.

Law No. 26,737 and its implementing regulation require that, “foreign ownership” of rural land may not exceed 15% of the total amount of rural land in the Argentine territory calculated also in relation to the territory of the Province, Department or Municipality where the relevant lands are located. For purposes of the law, “foreign ownership” means the ownership (whether by acquisition, transfer, assignment of rights or otherwise) over rural land by: (i) foreign individuals, regardless of whether they are Argentine residents or not; (ii) legal entities where foreign individuals or entities own, whether directly or indirectly, a number of votes sufficient to prevail in the local entity´s decision-making process. It is presumed that foreign legal entities where more than 51% of the stock is directly or indirectly owned by foreign individuals or entities are subject to Law No. 26,737; (iii) companies that issue bonds (a) convertible in stock representing 51% or more of the company’s stock upon conversion and (b) whose holders are foreign individuals or entities; (iv) trusts whose beneficiaries are foreign individuals or entities, as defined pursuant to (i) and (ii) above; (v) joint ventures in which foreign entities or individuals hold a participating interest higher than those set forth by the law; (vi) foreign public law-governed legal entities; and (vii) simple associations or de facto corporations in which foreigners hold shares in the percentage set forth by the new law in relation to corporations or which are controlled by foreigners.

Law No. 26,737 created a National Registry of Rural Land (Registro Nacional de Tierras Rurales) in charge of the enforcement of the provisions of the law and registry of rural land.

Any modification to the capital stock of companies that own or possess rural land, by public or private instrument, that implies a direct or indirect change of control, must be reported to the National Registry of Rural Land within 30 days from the date of such modification.

In addition, foreign entities or individuals of the same nationality may not own more than 4.5% of rural land in Argentina and a single foreign entity or individual may not own more than 1,000 hectares in the “core area”, or the “equivalent surface”, as determined by the Interministerial Council of Rural Land (Consejo Interministerial de Tierras Rurales) in accordance with the provinces’ proposal, specifying districts, sub-regions or areas and taking into consideration the location of the land, the proportion of the land area in respect of the total territory of the relevant Province, Department or Municipality and, the quality of the land for use and exploitation. The “equivalent surface” regime may be modified by the Interministerial Council of Rural Lands (Consejo Interministerial de Tierras Rurales) taking into account possible changes in the quality of the land or the growth of urban populations. Pursuant to Decree No. 274/2012, as amended and supplemented by Decree No. 820/2016 the departments that comprise the “core area” are: Marcos Juarez and Union in the Province of Córdoba; Belgrano, San Martin, San Jeronimo, Iriondo, San Lorenzo, Rosario, Constitución, Caseros and General Lopez in the Province of Santa Fe; and the districts of Leandro N. Alem, General Viamonte, Bragado, General Arenales, Junin, Alberti, Rojas, Chivilcoy, Chacabuco, Colon, Salto, San Nicolas, Ramallo, San Pedro, Baradero, San Antonio de Areco, Exaltacion de La Cruz, Capitan Sarmiento, San Andres de Giles, Pergamino, Arrecifes and Carmen de Areco in the Province of Buenos Aires.

| 29 |

Foreign legal entities or individuals may not own rural land that contain or are located beside permanent and significant bodies of water to be determined by the Federal Hydrological Council (Consejo Hídrico Federal) and may also include hydrological works and projects considered strategic and of public interest.

Acquisition of rural land will not be deemed as an “investment” under bilateral investment treaties signed by the Argentine Republic, since rural land is deemed as “a non-renewable natural resource”.

The regulatory decrees of Law No. 26,737 provide that no previous authorization certificate is required for certain operations such as (i) the transfer of the property or possession rights over real estate properties that were located in an “Industrial Area” or an “Industrial Park”, independently from the acquirer’s nationality, (ii) any modification to the capital stock of companies that own or possess rural land, by public or private instrument, when such modification implies a direct or indirect change of control, provided that such change of control is not made in favor of a new foreign legal entity or individual; and (iii) creation of certain real property rights over the rural land, such as easements.

Upon the issue of Decree No. 820/2016, the effects of Law No. 26,737 have been somewhat mitigated, by setting forth a term of 90 days during which the foreign legal entity or individual that has exceeded the allowed limit of ownership of rural land must reduce their current ownership to the legal limit by (i) transferring or causing any of its controlled legal entities to transfer the amount of rural land that exceeds the legal limit, or (ii) modifying or causing any of its controlled legal entities to modify the type of exploitation awarded to rural lands owned by such foreign legal entity, or (iii) transferring its participation to legal entities that are considered compliant pursuant to the terms of Law No. 26,737.

Law No. 26,737 initially stated that, even though no vested rights could be affected as a result of the application of such law, any act in violation of its provisions would be considered null and void. Decree No. 820/2016 clarified this situation and established that the foreign entities or individuals who owned rural land in excess to the allowed limit of ownership when the Law No. 26,737 came into effect (i) are not obliged to transfer such rural land in excess, and (ii) in the event of transfer of rural lands acquired before Law No. 26,737 was in force, they can acquire the equivalent to such transferred rural land, provided the legal limits established to the type of exploitation and location. Hence, the application of laws regarding foreign ownership of rural lands does not have an adverse effect on the current rural land owned by our Argentine subsidiaries. However, our Argentine subsidiaries may be prevented from acquiring additional rural land in Argentina, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of our operations.

Our results of operations may be adversely affected by high and possibly increasing inflation in Argentina.

In the past, inflation has materially undermined the Argentine economy and the government’s ability to create conditions that would permit stable growth. High inflation may also undermine Argentina’s foreign competitiveness in international markets and adversely affect economic activity and employment, as well as our business and results of operation. In particular, the profit margin on our services is impacted by the increase in our costs in providing those services, which is influenced by wage inflation in Argentina, as well as other factors.

According to data published by the INDEC, the CPI increased 23.9% in 2014 and 11.9% as of October 2015 (for the first nine months of year 2015). In November 2015, the INDEC suspended the publication of the CPI. According to the most recent publicly available information based on data from the Province of San Luis, the CPI grew by 31.6% in 2015 and by 31.4% in 2016. According to the most recent publicly available information based on data from the City of Buenos Aires, the CPI grew by 29.6% in 2015 and by 41.0% in 2016. After implementing certain methodological reforms and adjusting certain macroeconomic statistics based on these reforms, in June 2016 the INDEC resumed its publication of the CPI. According to the INDEC, Argentina’s rate of inflation for May, June, July, August, September, October, November and December 2016 was 4.2%, 3.2%, 2.2%, 0.2%, 1.3%, 2.6%, 1.8% and 1.2%, respectively. Private estimates, on average, refer to annual rates of inflation substantially in excess of those published by the INDEC. For example, opposition lawmakers in Argentina reported an inflation rate of 41%, 25.0% and 38.5% for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Uncertainty surrounding future inflation rates may have an adverse impact for Argentina in the long-term credit market.

The INDEC implemented certain methodological reforms and adjusted certain indexes based on these reforms The lack of accuracy in the INDEC’s indexes could result in a further decrease in confidence in Argentina’s economy, which could, in turn, have an adverse effect on our ability to access the international credit markets at acceptable market rates to be able to finance our operations and growth. See “—Risks Related to Argentina—Official data regarding inflation may be unreliable” and — “The economy of Argentina may be affected by its government’s limited access to financing from international markets” —.

Inflation rates could escalate, and there is uncertainty regarding the effects that the measures taken, or that may be taken, by the Macri administration to control inflation could have. If inflation remains high or continues to increase, Argentina’s economy may be negatively impacted and our results of operations could be materially adeversely affected.

Official data regarding inflation may be unreliable.

Since 2007, the inflation index determined by INDEC has been the subject of widespread criticism and extensive discussions in connection with analysis of the Argentine economy. The intervention of the former Argentine government in the INDEC in 2007 and the change in the way the inflation index was measured have resulted in disagreements between the former Argentine government and private consultants as to the actual annual inflation rate. The former Argentine government imposed fines on private consultants reporting inflation rates higher than the INDEC data. As a result, private consultants typically shared their data with Argentine lawmakers who opposed the previous government, and who released such data from time to time. The widespread disagreements had the negative effect of eroding public confidence in Argentina’s economy.

Reports published by the International Monetary Fund (“IMF”) in the past state that their staff uses alternative measures of inflation for macroeconomic surveillance, including data produced by private sources, which have shown considerably higher inflation rates than those published by the INDEC since 2007. The IMF has also criticized Argentina for not taking sufficient remedial measures to address the quality of its official data, including inflation and GDP data, as required under the Articles of Agreement of the IMF.

In February 2014, the INDEC released a new inflation index, known as National Urban Consumer Price Index (Índice de Precios al Consumidor Nacional Urbano) that measured the prices of goods across the country and replaced the previous index that only measured inflation in the urban sprawl of the City of Buenos Aires. Pursuant to these calculations, such new consumer price index rose 23.9% in 2014 and 11.9% during the ten-month period ended October 31, 2015. Even though the new methodology brought inflation statistics closer to those estimated by private sources, material differences between recent official inflation data and private estimates remained during 2015. The lack of accuracy in the INDEC’s indices could result in a further decrease in confidence in Argentina’s economy, which could, in turn, have an adverse effect on our ability to access the international credit markets at market rates to finance our operations and growth.

Government intervention in Argentina may have a direct impact on our prices and sales.

The Argentine government has in the past set certain industry market conditions and prices. In March 2002, the Argentine government fixed the price for milk after a conflict among producers and the government. In 2005, the Argentine government adopted measures in order to increase the domestic availability of beef and reduce domestic prices. The export tax rate was increased and a minimum weight requirement for animals to be slaughtered was established. In March 2006, sales of beef products to foreign markets were temporarily suspended until prices decreased. Furthermore, in 2007 the Argentine government significantly increased export tax rates on exports of crops. A number of restrictions were also imposed on the grain and oilseed markets that essentially limited the access of traders to exports, resulting in a disparity between domestic and world prices. In March 2012, the Undersecretary of Transport created an “indicative price” for the transportation of grains by road fixed on a quarterly basis. The actual price paid for the road transportation of grains cannot be lower than 5% or higher than 15% of the “indicative price” fixed for the applicable period. In some cases, the imposition of this “indicative price” would produce increases in our transportation costs. In addition, on April 9, 2013, the Secretary of Commerce issued a resolution that established a fixed price for selling liquid hydrocarbons for a six months period. The fixed price would be the highest selling price on the date of issuance of the resolution, in certain regions of the country. Notwithstanding the April 9 resolution, YPF (the Argentine government-controlled oil and gas company) implemented gas price increases that were matched by other oil companies. Due to the increase in the price of the wheat, on July 4, 2013, the Secretary of Commerce issued a resolution mandating wheat producers and distributors to sell their stocks to satisfy the domestic demand, seeking to reduce the wheat price. On January 2014, the Secretary of Commerce launched a new program of price controls called Precios Cuidados. Producers and suppliers committed to fixed prices for more than 300 basic products subject to review on a quarterly basis. As of the date hereof, one of our rice products sold under the trademark “Molinos Ala” is subject to this program. Violation of the program may result in sanctions, including fines of up to AR$5,000,000.

| 31 |

The Argentine government may pursue other expropriations or similar interventions such as the one relating to YPF. See “—Risks related to Argentina—The economy of Argentina may be affected by its government’s limited access to financing from international markets.” On December 27, 2012 the Argentine Congress passed Law N° 26,831, known as the new Capital Markets Law, which modifies the public offer regime set forth by Law No. 17,811 as amended. On August 1, 2013 Decree No. 1023/2013, which regulates the Capital Markets Law, was enacted.

The Capital Markets Law modifies the applicable regime of the Capital Markets, including local Stock Exchange and commodities markets, and of the agents and also the powers conferred to the Argentine Securities Commission (Comisión Nacional de Valores) (“CNV”). The main amendments introduced refer to the increase in the power of intervention by the CNV over the Exchange Markets and agents entitling the CNV to appoint supervisors with the ability to veto listed companies´ board decisions, and even disband the board of directors for a period of 180 days; and suspend the activities of agents and markets, without prior notice, when the CNV determines that a breach of applicable regulations has occurred. Also the new Capital Markets Law introduces new and more stringent requirements for agents to obtain authorization to operate in the markets which may result in a reduction of the current number of authorized agents operating in the grain markets. In November, 2016, the Argentine executive branch sent a bill to the Argentine Congress to reform the current Capital Markets Law No. 26,831 which, among other changes, proposes the abrogation of these interventionist powers granted to the CNV and generally seeks to modernize the entire regulatory framework applicable to the Argentine Capital Markets, incorporating current international practices to further its development. However, as of the date of this annual report, such bill has not yet been passed.

Moreover, the Argentine government may increase its level of intervention in certain areas of the economy. For example, on May 3, 2012 the Argentine Congress passed Law No. 26,741 providing for the expropriation of 51% of the share capital of YPF, S.A. (“YPF”), the largest Argentine oil and gas company in Argentina, represented by an identical stake of Class D shares owned, directly or indirectly, by Repsol S.A., a Spanish integrated oil and gas company. This particular measure also sparked a strong international condemnation and had a significant negative impact on foreign direct investment in Argentina as well as further impaired the already limited access to international capital and debt markets. In response to the nationalization of YPF by the Argentine government, the European Union Commission threatened with the imposition of commercial sanctions (i.e. unilateral tariff preferences to Argentina). However, during February 2014, the Argentine government and Repsol S.A. agreed to a compensation of $5,000 million payable in Argentine sovereign bonds to compensate Repsol S.A. for the seizure of the YPF shares.

Furthermore, on April 1, 2014 the Argentine Tax Federal Authority (“Administración Federal de Ingresos Públicos – AFIP”) issued Resolution No. 3,593/14 which established a “Systematic Registration of Movements and Grains Stocks Regime” (“Régimen de Registración Sistemática de Movimientos y Existencias de Granos”) pursuant to which all persons involved in the commercialization and manufacturing of grains and dairy products registered with the Registro Único de Operadores de la Cadena Agroindustrial (“RUCA” for its acronym in Spanish) must report the stock and stock variations (including locations, transport between the producer´s facilities, etc.) of all grains and other agricultural products (other than those to be applied to sowing) held in inventory or through third parties.

On April 16, 2015, the Argentine Congress passed a law approving the government takeover of the passenger and cargo railways, which became owned by a State-owned company called Ferrocarriles Argentinos Sociedad del Estado. This law is another example of intervention by the Argentine government and may result in higher transportation costs for our products and operations.

| 32 |

Expropriations and other interventions by the Argentine government such as the one relating to YPF can have an adverse impact on the level of foreign investment in Argentina, the access of Argentine companies to the international capital markets and Argentina’s commercial and diplomatic relations with other countries. In the future, the level of governmental intervention in the economy may continue, which may have adverse effects on Argentina’s economy and, in turn, our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Although many of the above measures were adopted or announced by the former Argentine government, we cannot assure you that the Macri administration will not interfere or increase its intervention by setting prices or regulating other market conditions. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that we will be able to freely negotiate the prices of all our Argentine products in the future or that the prices or other market conditions that the Macri administration might impose will allow us to freely negotiate the prices of our products, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Government measures to preempt or respond to social unrest may adversely affect the Argentine economy and our business.

Argentina has experienced significant social and political turmoil, including civil unrest, riots, looting, nationwide protests, strikes and street demonstrations. Despite Argentina’s economic recovery and relative stabilization, social and political tension and high levels of poverty and unemployment continue. Currently, Argentina is facing national protests, including a general massive strike and several protests during 2017.

Future government policies to preempt, or in response to, social unrest may include expropriation, nationalization, forced renegotiation or modification of existing contracts, suspension of the enforcement of creditors’ rights, new taxation policies, including royalty and tax increases and retroactive tax claims, and changes in laws and policies affecting foreign trade and investment. Such policies could destabilize the country and adversely and materially affect the Argentine economy, and thereby our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Argentine government may order salary increases to be paid to employees in the private sector, which would increase our operating costs.

In the past, the Argentine government has passed laws, regulations and decrees requiring companies in the private sector to increase wages and provide specified benefits to employees, and may do so again in the future. Argentine employers, both in the public and private sectors, have experienced significant pressure from their employees and labor organizations to increase wages and to provide additional employee benefits. Due to the high levels of inflation, employees and labor organizations are demanding significant wage increases. In August 2012, the Argentine government established a 25% increase in minimum monthly salary to 2,875 Argentine pesos, effective as of February 2013. The Argentine government increased the minimum salary to 3,300 Argentine pesos in August 2013, to 3,600 Argentine pesos in January 2014, to 4,400 Argentine pesos in September 2014, to 4,716 in January 2015, to 5,588 Argentine pesos in August 2015, to 6,060 Argentine pesos in January 2016, to 6,810 Argentine pesos in June 2016 and 7,560 Argentine pesos in September 2016. Recently, the INDEC published data regarding the evolution of salaries in the private and public sectors, which reflects approximately 32.91% and 32.58% salary increases in the private and public sectors, respectively, for the period from November 2015 through December 2016.

Due to the high levels of inflation, employers both in the public and private sectors are experiencing significant pressure from organized labor and their employees to further increase salaries. During 2016 organized labor unions agreed with employers’ associations on salary increases between 27% and 37%. Headcount in Argentina represents the 15.4% of the total headcount of the Company, Accordingly, if, as a result of such measures, future salary increases in Argentine peso exceed the pace of the devaluation of the Argentine pesos, they could have a material and adverse effect on our expenses and business, results of operations and financial condition.

An increase in export and import duties and controls may have an adverse impact on our sales.

Since 2002, the Argentine government has imposed duties on the exports of various primary and manufactured products, including some of our products. During the last ten years, such export taxes have undergone significant increases, reaching a maximum of 35% in the case of soybean. As of December 2015, the Macri administration eliminated farm export duties on corn, wheat and local products, while soy export taxes were reduced by 5% to 30% and 27% for most soybean products. Notwithstanding these measures, we cannot provide assurances or make predictions as to the impact this measure will have on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

| 33 |

On January 2, 2017, the Macri administration enacted a further reduction of the export duties on soybean and soybean products, including a monthly 0.5% cut on the export duties rate starting on January 2018 and until December 2019 has been set.

Pursuant to a resolution of the AFIP since February 2012, prior to the execution of any purchase order or similar document, Argentine importers were required to file before the AFIP a “Prior Import Statement” (Declaración Jurada Anticipada de Importación) providing information on future imports. Compliance with this requirement would be verified by the Argentine Customs upon arrival of the goods into Argentina and it was mandatory for the authorization of the payment of the purchase price by the Argentine financial entities. Even though this was intended merely as an information regime, it was considered to be used for purposes of restricting imports into Argentina. The Macri administration has adopted a similar regime that replaced the former Prior Import Statement system by the Import Monitoring System (Sistema Integral de Monitoreo de Importaciones or “SIMI”). Under this new system, importers are required to submit certain information electronically through the SIMI application which, once approved, will be valid for 180 calendar days. The imposition of this regime may restrict the imports of goods and the import and export of services of our Argentine subsidiaries which may adversely affect our financial conditions or results of operations.

The Macri administration has also enacted an import licensing regime that includes automatic and non-automatic licensing for imports. Automatic import licensing provides that the importer is only required to submit information through the SIMI as well as provide other certification related to the imported goods. Non-automatic licensing provides that the authorities have a 10-day period to either approve or reasonably reject the import license requested based on its effect on local businesses, in addition to the other import requirements that the goods be subject to (SIMI, certifications, etc). The prior administration had imposed a similar regime regarding the “import” and “export” of service (Declaración Jurada Anticipada de Servicios or “DJAS” for its acronym in Spanish) in order to control and restrict payments made by Argentine residents on services provided by foreign services, but it was deregulated recently by the Macri administration.

We cannot assure you that there will not be further increases in the export taxes or that other new export taxes or quotas will not be imposed. Imposition of new export taxes or quotas or a significant increase in existing export taxes or the application of export quotas or burdensome licensing requirements could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.

Exchange controls could restrict the inflow and outflow of funds in Argentina.

In 2001 and 2002, the Argentine government implemented a number of monetary and currency exchange control measures that included restrictions on the withdrawal of funds deposited with banks and stringent restrictions on the outflow of foreign currency from Argentina, including for purposes of paying principal and interest on debt and distributing dividends as well as the purchase of foreign currency and on the transfer of funds from Argentina.

Although some of these restrictions were subsequently eased, in June 2005, the Argentine government issued Decree No. 616/2005, which established new controls on capital inflows that could result in reduced availability of international credit, including the requirement, subject to certain exceptions, that 30% of all funds remitted to Argentina remain deposited in a domestic financial institution for 365 days in a non-interest bearing account. In addition, since the second half of 2011, the Argentine government increased certain controls on the incurrence of foreign currency-denominated indebtedness, the acquisition of foreign currency and foreign assets by local residents. For example, the Argentine Central Bank adopted regulations that (i) shortened the period for a borrower to convert foreign currency-denominated indebtedness into Argentine pesos, (ii) shortened a borrower’s window of access to the local foreign exchange market in connection with a prepayment of scheduled interest payments in respect of foreign currency-denominated indebtedness and (iii) suspended the ability of local residents to access the local exchange market for the acquisition of foreign currency.

In December 2015, the Macri administration introduced substantial changes to the foreign exchange restrictions, reversing most of the measures adopted since 2011 and providing greater flexibility and access to the foreign exchange market. See “—Risks related to Argentina—Argentine economic and political conditions and perceptions of these conditions in the international market may have a direct impact on our business and our access to international capital and debt markets, and could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition” in this section.

Notwithstanding the measures, adopted by the Macri administration, which lifted virtually all exchange and capital controls (except for the obligation of Argentine exporters of goods to repatriate to the FX Market foreign currency proceeds from export transactions, such as receivables relating to the exportation of goods, which are required to be settled through the foreign exchange Market), the Argentine government may impose or increase exchange controls or transfer restrictions in the future in response to capital flight or a significant depreciation of the Argentine peso. These restrictions and requirements, and any additional exchange controls and transfer restrictions in the future that may be adopted by the Argentine government, could adversely affect our financial condition and the results of our operations, or the market price of our common shares. In addition, other exchange controls could in the future impair or prevent the conversion of anticipated dividends, distributions, or the proceeds from any sale of equity holdings in Argentina, as the case may be, from Argentine pesos into U.S. dollars and the remittance of the U.S. dollars abroad. These restrictions and controls could interfere with the ability of our Argentine subsidiaries to make distributions in U.S. dollars to us and thus our ability to pay dividends in the future.

Changes in the Argentine tax laws may adversely affect the results of our operations.

On September 23, 2013, Law No. 26,893 amending the Income Tax Law was enacted. According to the amendments the distribution of dividends became subject to withholding income tax at a rate of 10% unless dividends were distributed to Argentine corporate entities and the income derived from sale, exchange or disposition of shares and other securities not trading in or listed in capital markets and securities exchanges is subject to income tax at a rate of 15% provided the gains are recognized by Argentine resident individuals. The withholding tax rate for the sale, exchange or disposition of shares and other securities when gains are recognized by a foreign beneficiary is, at the option of the non-Argentine resident seller, 13.5% on the gross amount or 15% on the net amount derived from the transaction. However, as of the date of this report, regulations that define the calculation methodology for the 15% rate on the net amount have not been enacted. Accordingly, the 13.5% rate is normally applied.

On July 22, 2016, Argentina published Law No. 27,260 in the Argentine Official Gazette, which makes significant changes to the Argentine tax laws and establishes new tax regimes as the “Voluntary and extraordinary disclosure regime of national and foreign currency holding and other assets, within Argentina and abroad” (Tax Amnesty) and a moratorium for tax, social security and customs obligations.

In addition, the 10% withholding tax established by Law No. 26,893 that was applied by companies on the distribution of dividends and profits was abrogated. Therefore, dividend distributions are not subject to income tax withholding apart from the so-called “equalization tax” which applies if the dividends distributed exceed the net accumulated taxable income of the distributing corporation.

Furthermore, compliant taxpayers are able to obtain an exemption from Personal Assets Tax payable by Argentine resident companies as substitute taxpayers on the participation held by their foreign shareholders and Argentine individual shareholders until fiscal year 2018 inclusive. The applicable tax on shares and other equity participations in Argentine companies is 0.25% on the net worth value of the company. Regarding the other tax on wealth, the Minimum Presumed Income Tax for fiscal years to be initiated as from January 1, 2019 has been abrogated.

On December 27, 2016 the Argentine Official Gazette published Law No. 27,346 that introduced important amendments to the Income Tax Law. The law creates a new tax levied on financial speculation trades (commonly known as “USD Futures Market Trades”) to be applied one-time only on the profits obtained by any person. Thus, gross income derived from “positive price differences” arising from the buying or selling of USD Futures Market Trades will be taxed at an additional 15% tax rate.

| 35 |

In addition, Law No. 27,346 also modifies the Value Added Tax Law and creates the figure of substitute taxpayer for the payment of the tax corresponding to foreign residents who render services in Argentina. Substitute taxpayers will assess and pay for value-added tax corresponding to the act, even in the cases in which it is impossible to withhold that tax from the foreign resident. Also, the tax paid will be considered as a tax credit if in favor of the substitute taxpayer.

Risks Related to Brazil

Brazilian economic and political conditions and perceptions of these conditions in international markets have a direct impact on our business and our access to international capital and debt markets, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

A significant portion of our operations, properties and customers are located in Brazil. Accordingly, our financial condition and results of operations are substantially dependent on economic conditions in Brazil. The Brazilian economy has experienced significant volatility in recent decades, characterized by periods of low or negative growth, high and variable levels of inflation and currency devaluation. Brazil’s GDP, in nominal terms, grew by 6.1% in 2007, 5.1% in 2008, decreased 0.1% in 2009, increased 7.5% in 2010, increased 3.9% in 2011, increased 1.9% in 2012, increased 3.0% in 2013, increased 0.1% in 2014 and decreased 3.8% in 2015. We cannot assure you that GDP will increase or remain stable in the future. Future developments in the Brazilian economy may affect Brazil’s growth rates and, consequently, the consumption of sugar, ethanol, and our other products. As a result, these developments could impair our business strategies, results of operations and financial condition.

Historically, Brazil’s political situation has influenced the performance of the Brazilian economy, and political crisis have affected the confidence of investors and the general public, which has resulted in economic deceleration and heightened volatility in the securities issued abroad by Brazilian companies. Future developments in policies of the Brazilian government and/or the uncertainty of whether and when such policies and regulations may be implemented.

Changes in Brazilian tax laws may have a material adverse impact on the taxes applicable to our business and may increase our tax burden.

The Brazilian government frequently implements changes to the Brazilian tax regime that may affect us and our clients. These changes include changes in prevailing tax rates and, occasionally, imposition of temporary taxes, the proceeds of which are earmarked for designated Brazilian government purposes. Some of these changes may result in increases in our tax payments, which could adversely affect industry profitability and increase the prices of our products, restrict our ability to do business in our existing and target markets and cause our financial results to suffer.

Currently Brazil is tackling an economic recession and the Government is adopting fiscal adjustment measures. Any fiscal adjustment is complex and involves radical and unpopular measures. The Minister of Finance has also been raising the possibility of increasing or creating new taxes. For example, the Brazilian government may reduce or increase at any time through a presidential decree the rates of the tax levied on financial operations, such as credit transactions (“IOF/Credit”), foreign exchange transactions (“IOF/Exchange”), derivative securities transactions (“IOF/Securities”), among other taxable events. On March, 30, 2017, a presidential decree was published in order to introduce a 0,38% rate of the IOF/Credit on some loan transactions, such as credits provided by cooperatives, which were previously subject to a zero percent rate.

It is also common for taxpayers to file suits for the declaration that a certain tax is illegal or unconstitutional. casein such cases where the final decision is favorable to taxpayers, a situation that occurs very frequently. Accordingly, the Brazilian Government may propose changes in the tax legislation in order to increase rates or to create new taxes..

The effects of these changes and any other change that could result from the enactment of additional legislation cannot be quantified. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain our projected cash flow and profitability following any increases in Brazilian taxes applicable to us and our operations.

| 36 |

Widespread corruption and fraud relating to ownership of real estate may adversely affect our business, especially our land transformation business.

Under Brazilian Legislation, real property ownership is normally transferred by means of a transfer deed, and subsequently registered at the appropriate Real Estate Registry Office under the corresponding real property record. There are uncertainties, corruption and fraud relating to title ownership of real estate in Brazil, mostly in rural areas. In certain cases, the Real Estate Registry Office may register deeds with errors, including duplicate and/or fraudulent entries, and, therefore, deed challenges frequently occur, leading to judicial actions. Property disputes over title ownership are frequent in Brazil, and, as a result, there is a risk that errors, fraud or challenges could adversely affect us.

As an example, the Instituto Nacional de Colonização e Reforma Agrária (“INCRA”) conducted an investigation to determine the falsehood of the Certificado de Cadastro do Imóvel Rural (“CCIR”) delivered to us by the former owner of Rio de Janeiro Farm (the “Farm”) in January 2005 when we acquired the Farm. The INCRA also conducted another investigation related to the cadeia dominial of the Farm to determine the correct chain of ownership through the successive transfers of ownership of the Farm, for the purpose of confirming that the destaque publico occurred, which refers to the transfer of land ownership from the State to a private owner, or that the State does not have an interest in claiming the ownership of the Farm. INCRA found no irregularity that could jeopardize the acquisition deed or affect the ownership of Rio de Janeiro Farm.

Social movements and the possibility of expropriation may affect the normal use of, damage, or deprive us of the use of or fair value of, our properties.

Social movements, such as Movimento dos Trabalhadores Rurais Sem Terra and Comissão Pastoral da Terra, are active in Brazil and advocate land reform and mandatory property redistribution by the Brazilian government. Land invasions and occupations of rural areas by a large number of individuals is common practice for these movements, and, in certain areas, including those in which we have invested or are likely to invest, police protection and effective eviction proceedings are not available to land owners. As a result, we cannot assure you that our properties will not be subject to invasion or occupation by these groups. A land invasion or occupation could materially impair the normal use of our lands or have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or the value of our common shares. In addition, our land may be subject to expropriation by the Brazilian government. Under Article 184 of the Brazilian Constitution, the Brazilian government may expropriate land that is not in compliance with mandated local “social functions”. A “social function” is defined in Article 186 of the Brazilian Constitution as (i) rational and adequate exploitation of land; (ii) adequate use of natural resources available and preservation of the environment; (iii) compliance with labor laws; and (iv) exploitation of land to promote welfare of owners and employees. If the Brazilian government decides to expropriate any of our properties, our results of operations may be adversely affected, to the extent that potential compensation to be paid by the Brazilian government may be less than the profit we could make from the sale or use of such land. Disputing the Brazilian government’s (*)expropriation of land is usually time-consuming and the outcomes of such challenges are uncertain. In addition, we may be forced to accept public debt bonds, which have limited liquidity, as compensation for expropriated land instead of cash.

Recent changes in Brazilian rules concerning foreign investment in rural properties may adversely affect our investments.

Brazilian Federal Law No. 5,709, effective October 7, 1971 (“Law 5709”) established certain restrictions on the acquisition of rural property by foreigners, including that (i) foreign investors may only acquire rural properties in which agricultural, cattle-raising, industrial or colonization projects are going to be developed as approved by the relevant authorities; (ii) the total rural area to be acquired by a foreign investor cannot exceed one quarter of the surface of the municipality where it is located, and foreigners with the same nationality may not own, cumulatively, more than 10% of the surface of the municipality in which it is located; and (iii) the acquisition or possession (or any in rem right) by a foreigner of rural property situated in an area considered important to national security (i.e. land located at or near the Brazilian border) must be previously approved by the General Office of the National Security Council (Secretaria-Geral do Conselho de Segurança Nacional). Pursuant to Article 23 of Law No. 8,629, of February 25, 1993 (“Law 8629”), the restrictions mentioned in items (i) and (ii) above established by Law 5709 are also applicable for rural lease agreements executed by foreigners. “Parcerias Agrícolas” (agriculture partnerships agreements) have not been subject to these restrictions. Although, a broader interpretation of the existing regulations could have also included these agreements within the limitations for foreigners, the Federal General Attorney’s Office (“AGU”) on October 8, 2012 issued a legal opinion 005/2012, pursuant to which the AGU confirmed the understanding that the “Parcerias Rurais” are not subject to the restrictions or limitations of Law 5709. In addition, pursuant to Law 8629, the acquisition or lease by a foreigner of a rural property exceeding 100 módulos de exploração indefinida – “MEI,” a measurement unit defined by the Regional Superintendence of the National Institute of Colonization and Land Reform (Superintendencia Regional do Instituto Nacional de Colonizaçao e Reforma Agrária – “INCRA”) must be previously approved by the Brazilian National Congress. Law 5709 also establishes that the same restrictions apply to Brazilian companies that are directly or indirectly controlled by foreign investors. Any acquisition or lease of rural property by foreigners in violation of the terms of Law 5709 would be considered null and void under Brazilian law.

| 37 |

Since the enactment of the Brazilian Constitution in 1988, the consensus view was that the restrictions imposed by Federal Law 5709 on the acquisition or lease of rural property above-mentioned did not apply to Brazilian companies controlled by foreigners, pursuant to legal opinion No. GQ-22, issued by the AGU in 1994, which was ratified by legal opinion No. GQ-181, also issued by the AGU in 1998. The Brazilian Constitution and its amendments, in particular Constitutional Amendment No. 6, of August 15, 1995, provides that (i) no restrictions on the acquisition of rural land in Brazil should apply to Brazilian companies; and (ii) any company incorporated and headquartered in Brazil and controlled by foreign investors must receive the same treatment as any other company incorporated and headquartered in Brazil and controlled by Brazilian investors. However, the Brazilian Justice National Council issued an Official Letter on July 13, 2010 addressed to all the Brazilian local State Internal Affairs Bureaus in order for them to adopt procedures within sixty (60) days and instruct the local State Notary and Real Estate Registry Offices to observe the restrictions of the Brazilian law on the acquisitions of rural land by Brazilian companies with foreign equity holders. Thereafter, on August 19, 2010, the AGU revised its prior opinion, and published a new legal opinion which: (i) revoked the AGU’s legal opinions No. GQ-22 and GQ-181; and (ii) confirmed that Brazilian entities controlled by foreigners should be subject to the restrictions described above, and transactions entered into by foreigners in connection with the acquisition of rural properties would be subject to approval from INCRA, the Ministry of Agrarian Development and the Brazilian National Congress, when applicable. This revised opinion was ratified by the President of Brazil and published in the Official Gazette of the Federal Executive on August 23, 2010, becoming effective as of such date. We believe that the acquisitions of rural properties by Brazilian companies directly or indirectly controlled by foreigners registered in the appropriate real estate registry prior to August 23, 2010 are not affected by the AGU’s legal opinion. As a confirmation of such understanding, pursuant to the Joint Normative Ruling N. 1 issued on September 27, 2012 by the Ministries of: (i) Agricultural Development; (ii) Agriculture, Cattle-raising and Supply; (iii) Industry Development and Foreign Commerce; and (iv) Tourism (the “Joint Normative Ruling N. 1”); and the Normative Ruling/IN INCRA No.76, issued on August 23, 2013, a Brazilian company controlled by foreign individuals or companies which acquired or leased rural properties, by means of an act or agreement entered into from June 7, 1994 and August 22, 2010, may register such property before the National System of Rural Registry (Sistema Nacional de Catastro Rural-SNCR), without any administrative sanction. However, as of said date, the acquisition and leasing of rural land in Brazil, including through corporate transactions, will be subject to the above-mentioned restrictions, and will require several additional layers of review and approvals, which may be discretionary (including the approvals from INCRA, Ministry of Agrarian Development and the Brazilian National Congress, when applicable), burdensome and time consuming. Additionally, the Joint Normative Ruling N. 1 sets forth the administrative procedures applicable to requests for authorization for the acquisition or lease of rural properties by foreign investors pursuant to Law 5709. Under the Joint Normative Ruling, in order to obtain the authorization for the acquisition or lease of rural properties, foreign investors must present a project proposal to the INCRA, containing: (i) the rationale for the relationship between the property to be acquired or leased and the project size; (ii) physical and financial schedule of the investment and implementation of the project; (iii) use of official credit (governmental funds) for the total or partial finance of the project; (iv) logistic viability of the execution of the project and, in case of an industrial project, proof of compatibility between the local industrial sites and the geographic location of the lands; and (v) proof of compatibility with the criteria established by the Brazilian Ecological and Economical Zoning (Zoneamento Ecológico Económico do Brasil – ZEE), relating to the location of the property.

While we conduct our operations in Brazil through local subsidiaries, we would be considered a foreign controlled entity within the meaning of the restrictions described above. Therefore, if we are not able to comply with these restrictions and obtain the required approvals in connection with future acquisitions or lease transactions, our business plan, contemplated expansion in Brazil and results of operations will be adversely affected.

| 38 |

Furthermore, there is currently proposed legislation under review in the Brazilian National Congress regarding the acquisition of rural land by Brazilian companies controlled by foreign holders, which if approved may further limit and restrict the investments of companies with foreign equity capital in rural land in Brazil. Such further restrictions, if adopted, may place more strain on our ability to expand our operations in Brazil.

The Brazilian government has exercised, and continues to exercise, significant influence over the Brazilian economy, which, combined with Brazilian political and economic conditions, may adversely affect us.

We may be adversely affected by the following factors, as well as the Brazilian government’s response to these factors:

| • | economic and social instability;

| • | increase in interest rates;

| • | exchange controls and restrictions on remittances abroad;

| • | restrictions and taxes on agricultural exports;

| • | exchange rate fluctuations;

| • | inflation;

| • | volatility and liquidity in domestic capital and credit markets;

| • | expansion or contraction of the Brazilian economy, as measured by GDP growth rates;

| • | allegations of corruption against political parties, elected officials or other public officials, including allegations made in relation to the ”Car Wash Operation” (Operação Lava-Jato) investigation;

| • | government policies related to our sector;

| • | fiscal or monetary policy and amendments to tax legislation; and

| • | other political, diplomatic, social or economic developments in or affecting Brazil.

Historically, the Brazilian government has frequently intervened in the Brazilian economy and has occasionally made significant changes in economic policies and regulations, including, among others, the imposition of a tax on foreign capital entering Brazil (IOF tax), changes in monetary, fiscal and tax policies, currency devaluations, capital controls and limits on imports. The administration is currently facing domestic pressure to retreat from the current macroeconomic policies in an attempt to achieve higher rates of economic growth. In addition, the Brazilian government is proposing the creation of a tax on financial transactions, including wire transfers, (the so-called “CPMF”) in order to improve the fiscal situation of the country. We cannot predict which policies will be adopted by the Brazilian government and whether these policies will negatively affect the economy or our business or financial performance.

The Brazilian economy has been experiencing a slowdown – GDP growth rates were 7.5%, 3.9%, 1.9%, 2.7%, and 0.1% in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively and GDP decreased 3.8% in 2015. Inflation, unemployment and interest rates have increased more recently and the Brazilian Real has weakened significantly in comparison to the U.S. dollar. The market expectations for the years 2016 and 2017 is that the Brazilian economy will continue to slow down and GDP will decrease. Our results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected by the economic conditions in Brazil.

Allegations of political corruption against the Brazilian government and the Brazilian legislative branch could create economic and political instability.

In the past, members of the Brazilian government and of the Brazilian legislative branch have faced allegations of political corruption. As a result, a number of politicians, including senior federal officials and congressmen, resigned and/or have been arrested. Currently, several members of the Brazilian executive and legislative branches of government are being investigated as a result of allegations of unethical and illegal conduct identified by the Car Wash Operation (Operação Lava-Jato) being conducted by the Office of the Brazilian Federal Prosecutor. . On April 17th, 2016 the impeachment process of the Brazilian President was approved by the House of Representatives and, on August 31st, 2016 the process was approved by Senate. The Brazilian President was replaced by the Vice-President until a new election is held in 2018. The new President has been trying to implement political and economic reforms related to labor and social security matters, and other measures targeting higher economic rates of growth and employment. We cannot predict which policies will be adopted by the new Brazilian government and whether these policies will negatively affect the economy and our business or results of operations.

| 39 |

Additionally, the potential outcome of investigations and proceedings related to the Car Wash Operation (Operação Lava-Jato) is unknown, but they have already had an adverse impact on the general market perception of the Brazilian economy and the conclusion of these proceedings or further allegations of illicit conduct could have additional adverse effects in the Brazilian economy. In this sense, the political crisis could worsen the economic conditions in Brazil, which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Moreover, the economic and political crisis have resulted in the downgrading of the country’s long-term credit rating from the three major rating companies, placing Brazil back in speculative investment grade level (“junk”). Standard & Poor's downgraded Brazil to BB with a negative outlook in February 2016; , Fitch Ratings downgraded to BB with a negative outlook, in May 2016 , while Moody’s maintained its Ba2 rating, changing its outlook from negative to stable in March 2017. According to Moody’s, this improvement is based on a more stabilized and predicted macroeconomic environment. However, the new Brazilian administration is still facing domestic pressure to repair the economy and achieve higher rates of economic growth. We cannot predict which policies will be adopted by the Brazilian government and whether these policies will negatively affect the economy or our business or financial performance..

Restrictions on the movement of capital out of Brazil may impair our abilityto receive payments from our Brazilian Subsidiaries and restrict their ability to make payments in U.S. dollars.

In the past, the Brazilian economy has experienced balance of payment deficits and shortages in foreign exchange reserves, and the Brazilian government has responded by restricting the ability of Brazilian or foreign persons or entities to convert reais into foreign currencies. The Brazilian government may institute a restrictive exchange control policy in the future. Any restrictive exchange control policy could prevent or restrict our Brazilian Subsidiaires’ access to U.S. dollars, and consequently their ability to meet their U.S. dollar obligations and may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our business in Brazil is subject to governmental regulation.

Our Brazilian operations are subject to a variety of national, state, and local laws and regulations, including environmental, agricultural, health and safety and labor laws. We invest financial and managerial resources to comply with these laws and related permit requirements. Our failure to do so could subject us to fines or penalties, enforcement actions, claims for personal injury or property damages, or obligations to investigate and/or remediate damage or injury. Moreover, if applicable laws and regulations, or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, become more stringent in the future, our capital or operating costs could increase beyond what we currently anticipate, and the process of obtaining or renewing licenses for our activities could be hindered or even opposed by the competent authorities.

We are also subject to laws and regulations imposed in Brazil and its agencies, including (i) the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (Agência Nacional do Petróleo, Gás Natural e Biocombustível(“ANP”)) and by the Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (Agência Nacional de Energia Elétrica) (“ANEEL”) on account of our production of sugarcane, ethanol and electric energy (ii) the Ministry of Agriculture, Breeding Cattle and Supply (Ministerio da Agricultura, Pecuaria e Abastecimento(“MAPA”)), on account of our agricultural, sugarcane and ethanol production activities. If an adverse final decision is issued in an administrative process, we could be exposed to penalties and sanctions derived from the violation of any of these laws and regulations, including the payment of fines, and, depending on the level of severity applied to the infraction, the closure of facilities and/or stoppage of activities and the cancellation or suspension of the registrations, authorizations and licenses, which may also result in temporary interruption or discontinuity of activities in our plants, and adversely affect our business, financial status, and operating results.

Government laws and regulations in Brazil governing the burning of sugarcane could have a material adverse impact on our business or financial performance.

In Brazil, a relevant percentage of sugarcane is currently harvested by burning the crop, which removes leaves in addition to eliminating insects and other pests. The states of São Paulo, Minas Gerais and Mato Grosso do Sul, among others, have established laws and regulations that limit and/or entirely prohibit the burning of sugarcane and there is a likelihood that increasingly stringent regulations will be imposed by those states and other governmental agencies in the near future.

| 40 |

Such limitations arise from a Brazilian Federal Decree that set forth the complete elimination of the harvest by burning the crop until 2018 in areas where it is possible to carry out mechanized harvest. In the state of Minas Gerais, the deadline imposed by the State Government for the elimination of the harvest by burning the crop is 2014, for areas with declivity lower than 12%, and for areas with declivity higher than 12%, they are subject to an additional term at the discretion of the State Environmental Agency, on a case by case basis. Nevertheless, in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, the current deadline is 2018 for the elimination of harvest by burning the crop for areas where mechanized harvest can be carried out, as per the Brazilian Federal Decree.

We currently make significant investments to comply with these laws and regulations. Although our plans for the implementation of mechanized harvesting are underway, with 97.7% of our sugarcane harvest mechanized during the 2015-2016 harvest, the strengthening of these laws and regulations or the total prohibition of sugarcane burning would require us to increase our planned investment in harvesting equipment, which, in turn, would limit our ability to fund other investments. In addition, the state of São Paulo has imposed an obligation on growers to dedicate a certain percentage of land used for sugarcane cultivation for native or reclaimed forest area. The cost of setting aside this land is difficult to predict and may increase costs for us or our sugarcane suppliers. As a result, the costs to comply with existing or new laws or regulations are likely to increase, and, in turn, our ability to operate our plants and harvest our sugarcane crops may be adversely affected.

Risks Related to a Luxembourg Company

We are a Luxembourg corporation (“société anonyme”) and it may be difficult for you to obtain or enforce judgments against us or our executive officers and directors in the United States.

We are organized under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. Most of our assets are located outside the United States. Furthermore, most of our directors and officers and experts reside outside the United States, and most of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, you may find it difficult to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons or to enforce outside the United States judgments obtained against us or these persons in U.S. courts, including judgments in actions predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws. Likewise, it may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments obtained against us or these persons in courts located in jurisdictions outside the United States, including actions predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws. It may also be difficult for an investor to bring an action in a Luxembourg court predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us or these persons. Luxembourg law provides shareholders the right to bring a derivative action on behalf of the Company only in limited circumstances and subject to conditions only admit, shareholders’ right to bring a derivative action on behalf of the company.

Service of process within Luxembourg upon the Company may be possible, provided that The Hague Convention on the Service Abroad of Judicial and Extrajudicial Documents in Civil or Commercial Matters of November 15, 1965 is complied with. As there is no treaty in force on the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters between the United States and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, courts in Luxembourg will not automatically recognize and enforce a final judgment rendered by a U.S. court. The enforceability in Luxembourg courts of judgments entered by U.S. courts will be subject prior any enforcement in Luxembourg to the procedure and the conditions set forth in particular in the Luxembourg procedural code, which conditions may include the following (subject to court interpretation which may evolve):

| • | the judgment of the U.S. court is final and duly enforceable (exécutoire) in the United States;

| • | the U.S. court had jurisdiction over the subject matter leading to the judgment (that is, its jurisdiction was established in compliance both with Luxembourg private international law rules and with the applicable domestic U.S. federal or state jurisdictional rules);

| • | the U.S. court has applied to the dispute the substantive law which would have been applied by Luxembourg courts;

| • | the judgment was granted following proceedings where the counterparty had the opportunity to appear, and if it appeared, to present a defense;

| 41 |

| • | the U.S. court has acted in accordance with its own procedural laws; and

| • | the judgment of the U.S. court does not contravene Luxembourg international public policy.

Under our articles of incorporation, we indemnify and hold our directors harmless against all claims and suits brought against them, subject to limited exceptions. Under our articles of incorporation, to the extent allowed or required by law, the rights and obligations among or between us, any of our current or former directors, officers and company employees and any current or former shareholder will be governed exclusively by the laws of Luxembourg and subject to the jurisdiction of the Luxembourg courts, unless such rights or obligations do not relate to or arise out of their capacities as such. Although there is doubt as to whether U.S. courts would enforce such provision in an action brought in the United States under U.S. securities laws, such provision could make the enforcement of judgments obtained outside Luxembourg more difficult as to the enforcement against our assets in Luxembourg or jurisdictions that would apply Luxembourg law.

You may have more difficulty protecting your interests than you would as a shareholder of a U.S. corporation.

Our corporate affairs are governed by our articles of incorporation and by the laws governing joint stock companies organized under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg as well as such other applicable local law, rules and regulations. The rights of our shareholders and the responsibilities of our directors and officers under Luxembourg law are different from those applicable to a corporation incorporated in the United States. There may be less publicly available information about us than is regularly published by or about U.S. issuers. Also, Luxembourg regulations governing the securities of Luxembourg companies may not be as extensive as those in effect in the United States, and Luxembourg law and regulations in respect of corporate governance matters may not be as protective of minority shareholders as state corporation laws in the United States. Therefore, you may have more difficulty protecting your interests in connection with actions taken by our directors and officers or our principal shareholders than you would as a shareholder of a corporation incorporated in the United States.

History

In September 2002, we commenced our operations with the acquisition of 100% of the equity interests of Pecom Agropecuaria S.A., an Argentine corporation (sociedad anónima), and we rapidly became one of the largest agricultural companies in Argentina. Totaling more than 74,000 hectares of farmland, this acquisition represented one of the largest stock purchase transactions in South America in 2002. In connection with the acquisition, Pecom Agropecuaria S.A. changed its name to Adeco Agropecuaria S.A. (“Adeco Agropecuaria”). Adeco Agropecuaria was the platform from which we executed our expansion plans, including the acquisition of additional land and the diversification of our business activities.

In 2004, we began our regional expansion and acquired a farm in Uruguay (approximately 5,086 hectares) and three farms in Western Bahia Brazil (20,419 hectares). In 2005, we continued the expansion of our crop business in Argentina with the acquisitions of La Agraria S.A. (approximately 4,857 hectares) and Establecimientos El Orden S.A. and Cavok S.A. (approximately 15,157 hectares) and Las Horquetas farm (2,086 hectares).

In 2005, we acquired our first sugar and ethanol mill, Usina Monte Alegre S.A. (“UMA”), with a crushing capacity of 0.9 million tons of sugarcane per year at that time. UMA became our platform for expansion in the Brazilian sugar and ethanol sector.

In 2006 and 2007, we continued our land portfolio expansion and vertical integration through the acquisitions of Pilagá S.A. (formerly Pilagá S.R.L. and before that, Pilagá S.A.G.), one of the largest and oldest agriculture companies in Argentina, with more than 88,000 hectares and two rice processing facilities, and one additional farm of approximately 2,400 hectares in Argentina and two farms of approximately 4,000 hectares in Brazil for the production of crops. Also, in December 2007, we acquired Bañado del Salado S.A., Agro Invest S.A. and Forsalta S.A., with more than 43,000 hectares for crop production in Argentina, and one farm in Uruguay of approximately 3,177 hectares.

| 43 |

During 2007, we also began the expansion of our dairy business in Argentina. After five years of research, we began the construction of a “free-stall” dairy facility with a capacity to milk 3,000 cows.

In Brazil, during 2007, we began the construction of a sugarcane cluster in Mato Grosso do Sul with a projected 10.0 million tons of sugarcane crushing capacity. Angelica was the first greenfield mill we built from inception, with a nominal crushing capacity of 4.0 million tons. We also bought approximately 13,000 hectares of farmland for the planting of sugarcane to supply the mill. Angelica began operating during August 2008, and reached full operational capacity during April 2010.

Additionally, in August 2010, we acquired Dinaluca S.A., an agricultural company consisting of a farm located in the province of Corrientes, Argentina, and with more than 14,000 hectares for crop production in Argentina. Further, between August and November 2011, we acquired: (i) Compañía Agroforestal de Servicios y Mandatos S.A., an agricultural Argentine company owning more than 4,900 hectares of land in the province of Santiago del Estero, (ii) Simoneta S.A., an agricultural Argentine company owner of more than 4,600 hectares of land in the province of La Pampa, and (iii) 3,400 hectares of land for crop production in the province of San Luis, Argentina.

During 2012, we began the construction of our second free stall dairy facility in Argentina, with a capacity of 3,500 milking cows.

On February 26, 2013, Adecoagro formed CHS Agro S.A., a joint venture with a leading farmer-owned energy, grains and foods company based in the United States. We hold 50% interest in CHS Agro. CHS Agro will build a sunflower processing facility located in the city of Pehuajo, Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The facility will process blackoil and confectionary sunflower into speciatly products such as in-shell seeds and oil seeds, which will be entirely exported to markets in Europe and the Middle East. The joint venture will grow confectionary sunflower on leased farms, while blackoil sunflower will be originated from third parties. As of December 31, 2014, we and CHS Inc. have made individual capital contributions to CHS Agro of approximately US$ 4 million each.

During March 2013, we began the construction of the second greenfield project in our sugarcane cluster in Mato Grosso do Sul. The Ivinhema mill, with 5.0 million tons of sugarcane crushing capacity and located 45 km south of Angelica, would consolidate our cluster, generating important synergies and economies of scale, improving operational margins and Adjusted Free Cash Flow. Ivinhema was built in two phases: the first phase with 2.0 million tons of capacity was completed during April 2012 and the second phase, with 3.0 million tons of crushing capacity was completed during mid 2015.

Corporate Development

On October 30, 2010, as part of the corporate reorganization, referred to herein as the Reorganization, AFI Ltd., a subsidiary of IFH LLC and the parent of Adecoagro LLC, distributed its interest in Adecoagro LLC to IFH LLC and commenced a process of dissolution, making IFH LLC the direct parent of Adecoagro LLC. Thereafter, our shareholders transferred pro rata 98% of their membership interests in IFH LLC to Adecoagro (a corporation organized under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg with no prior holdings or operations, formed for the purpose, among others, of facilitating our IPO) in exchange for 100% of the common shares of Adecoagro.

In connection with the Reorganization, Adecoagro converted IFH LLC from a limited liability company to IFH LP, a Delaware limited partnership. owned 2% by our shareholders, approximately 98% by Adecoagro, in each case as limited partners, and the remainder by Ona Ltd., a newly formed Maltese corporation, as its general partner. Adecoagro LLC was also converted to Adecoagro LP, a Delaware limited partnership, owned approximately 100% by IFH LP as limited partner, and the remainder by Toba Ltd., a newly formed Maltese corporation, as its general partner.

On January 28, 2011, we successfully completed our initial public offering of our shares listed on the NYSE and on February 2, 2011 we issued 28,405,925 shares, at a price of US$11 per share. The shares trade under the symbol “AGRO.”

On February 2, 2011, we also issued and sold to Al Gharrafa Investment Company (“Al Gharrafa”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Qatar Holding LLC and one of our shareholders, 7,377,598 common shares at a purchase price of $10.65 per share, which is equal to the price per common share paid by the underwriters of our initial public offering of the Company, pursuant to an agreement entered into on January 6, 2011. In addition, on February 11, 2011, we issued 4,285,714 shares when the over-allotment option was exercised by the underwriters in our IPO.

| 44 |

During 2012, the Company issued in a series of transactions 1,654,752 shares to certain limited partners of IFH in exchange for their residual interest in IFH increasing Adecoagro’s interest in IFH to approximately 100%.

On February 5, 2013, we completed an underwritten secondary offering of 13.9 million common shares of Adecoagro offered by our shareholder, HBK Master Fund LP at a price per share to the public of $8.00 pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form F-3 filed with the SEC. On February 13, 2013, HBK Master Fund LP sold an additional 2.1 million common shares of Adecoagro pursuant to the overallotment option it granted to the underwriter in the secondary offering.

On March 27, 2015, Adecoagro commenced a series of transactions for the purpose of transferring the domicile of Adecoagro LP to Luxembourg. In connection with the Adecoagro LP redomiciliation, Adecoagro merged IFH LP into Adecoagro LP with Adecoagro LP (Delaware) as the surviving entity. In connection with this merger, all of the assets and liabilities of IFH L.P. vested in Adecoagro LP (Delaware), Ona Ltd became its general partner and Toba Ltd became a wholly owned subsidiary of Adecoagro LP (Delaware). In connection with the transactions completed on March 27, 2015, Ona Ltd. assigned its general partnership interest in Adecoagro LP to Adecoagro GP S.a.r.l., a societe responsibilitie limitee organized under the laws of Luxembourg, on April 1, 2015.

| B. | BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Our Company

We are a leading agricultural company in South America, with operations in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay. We are currently involved in a broad range of businesses, including farming crops and other agricultural products, dairy operations, sugar, ethanol and energy production and land transformation. Our sustainable business model is focused on (i) a low-cost production model that leverages growing or producing each of our agricultural products in regions where we believe we have competitive advantages, (ii) reducing the volatility of our returns through product and geographic diversification and use of advanced technology, (iii) benefiting from vertical integration in key segments of the agro-industrial chain, (iv) acquiring and transforming land to improve its productivity and realizing land appreciation through strategic dispositions, and (v) implementing sustainable production practices and technologies focused on long-term profitability.

As of December 31, 2016, we owned a total of 246,139 hectares, comprised of 19 farms in Argentina, 11 farms in Brazil and one farm in Uruguay. In addition we own and operate several agro-industrial production facilities including three rice processing facilities in Argentina, two dairy facilities with approximately 6,880 milking cows in Argentina, 11 grain and rice conditioning and storage plants in Argentina, and three sugar and ethanol mills in Brazil with a sugarcane crushing capacity of 11.2 million tons.

We believe that we are:

| • | one of the largest owners of productive farmland in South America, with more than 203,620 owned productive hectares as of December 31, 2016 (excluding legal land reserves pursuant to local regulations and other land reserves) located in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay, producing a wide range of agricultural products.

| • | a leading producer of grains and oilseeds in South America. During the 2015/2016 harvest year, we harvested 172,976 hectares (including 55,895 leased hectares and 32,896 second crop hectares) and produced 586,556 tons of grains, including soybeans, corn, wheat, sunflower and cotton;

| • | one of the largest producers of rough (unprocessed) rice in the world, planting 37,580 hectares (including 1,700 leased hectares) and producing 220,758 tons during the 2015/2016 harvest year, which accounted for 21% of the total Argentine production according to the Confederacion de Molinos Arroceros del Mercosur (“Conmasur”). We are also a large processor and exporter of white rice (processed) in Argentina, accounting for 19% of total white rice production capacity in Argentina and 22% of total Argentine white rice exports during 2016, according to Camara de Industriales Arroceros de Entre Ríos (Federacion de Entidades Arroceras).

| • | a leading dairy producer in South America in terms of our cutting-edge technology, productivity per cow and grain conversion efficiencies, producing approximately 92.4 million liters of fluid milk during 2016.

| • | a growing producer of sugar and ethanol in Brazil, where we currently own three sugar and ethanol mills, with an aggregate installed capacity of 11.2 million tons per year and full cogeneration capacity (the generation of electricity from sugarcane bagasse, the fiber portion of sugarcane that remains after the extraction of sugarcane juice) of 232 MW as of December 31, 2016. Our operation is highly integrated, meaning that 91% of the sugarcane crushed at our mills is supplied from our own plantations. As of December 31, 2016, our sugarcane plantation consisted of 134,591 hectares; and,

| • | one of the leading companies in South America involved in the acquisition and transformation of undermanaged land to more productive uses, generating higher cash yields. Between 2006 and 2015 we consistently sold a portion of our fully mature farmland every year. In aggregate, we have sold over 77,000 hectares generating capital gains of approximately $205 million.

| 47 |

We are engaged in three main businesses:

Farming Business: As of December 31, 2016 we owned 232,848 hectares (excluding sugarcane farms) of farmland in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay, of which 121,615 hectares are croppable, 11,227 hectares are being evaluated for transformation, 60,713 hectares are suitable for raising beef cattle and are mostly leased to third party cattle farmers, constituting a total of 193,555 productive hectares, and 39,293 hectares are legal land reserves pursuant to local regulations or other land reserves. During the 2015/2016 harvest year we held leases or have entered into agriculture partnerships for an additional 57,595 croppable hectares. We own the facilities and have the resources to store and condition 100% of our crop and rice production. We do not depend on third parties to condition our production for sale. Our farming business is subdivided into four main businesses:

| • | Crop business: We produce a wide range of agricultural commodities including soybeans, corn, wheat, sunflower and cotton, among others. In Argentina, our farming activities are conducted mainly in the Argentine humid pampas region, where agro-ecological conditions are optimal for low-cost production. Since 2004, we have expanded our operations throughout the center-west region of Uruguay and the western part of the state of Bahia, Brazil, as well as in the northern region of Argentina. During the 2015/2016 harvest year, we planted approximately 172,976 hectares of crops, including second harvests, producing 586,772 tons of grains, including soybeans, wheat, corn, sunflower and cotton. We also planted an additional 4,718 hectares where we produced over 136,797 tons of forage that we used for cow feed in our dairy operation. During the current 2016/17 harvest year, we planted approximately 184,988 hectares of crops, including second harvest, and also planted an additional 3,808 hectares of forage.

| • | Rice business: We own a fully-integrated rice operation in Argentina. We produce irrigated rice in the northeast provinces of Argentina, where the availability of water, sunlight, and fertile soil results in one of the most ideal regions in the world for producing rice at low cost. We believe that we are one of the largest producers of rough (unprocessed) rice in Argentina, producing 220,758 tons during the 2015/2016 harvest year, which accounted for 21% of the total Argentine production according to Conmasur. We own three rice mills that process our own production, as well as rice purchased from third parties. We produce different types of white and brown rice that are sold both in the domestic Argentine retail market and exported. During the current 2016/17 harvest year, we planted 39,728 hectares of rice.

| • | Dairy business: We believe that we are a leading dairy producer in South America in terms of our utilization of cutting-edge technology, productivity per cow and grain conversion efficiencies. Through the production of fluid milk, we are able to transform forage and grains into value-added animal protein. We believe that our “free-stall” dairies in Argentina are the first of their kind in South America and allows us to optimize our use of resources (land, dairy cow feed and capital), increase our productivity and maximize the conversion of forage and grain into fluid milk. We produced approximately 92.4 million liters of fluid milk during 2016, with a daily average of 6,880 milking cows, delivering an average of 36.7 liters of milk per cow per day.

| • | All Other Segments business: Our all other segments business consists of leasing pasture land to cattle farmers in Argentina and leasing our coffee plantation in the Rio de Janeiro farm, located in Western Bahia, Brazil, to a third party. We lease over 27,216 hectares of pasture land which is not suitable for crop production to third party cattle farmers.

| (3) | All Other Segments encompasses our remaining interests in the beef Cattle and Coffee businesses. Our beef cattle business consists of over 61 thousand hectares of pasture land that is not suitable for crop production and as a result is leased to third parties for cattle grazing activities. We lease the coffee production rights with respect to our Rio de Janeiro coffee plantation.

| (4) | Crop production does not include 136,797 tons, 102,527 tons, and 89,081 tons of forage produced in the 2015/2016, 2014/2015 and 2013/2014 harvest years, respectively.

| (5) | Expressed in tons of rough rice produced on owned and leased farms. As of December 31, 2016, the 2015/16 harvest year of rice harvest had not began.

| (6) | Fluid milk produced at our dairy farms.

| (7) | Includes 4,718 hectares, 4,999 hectares and 3,141 hectares, used for the production of forage during the 2015/16, 2014/2015, and 2013/2014 harvest years, respectively.

Sugar, Ethanol and Energy Business: We cultivate and harvest sugarcane which is then processed in our own mills to produce sugar, ethanol and energy. As of December 31, 2016, our total sugarcane plantation consisted of 134,591 hectares, planted mainly over leased land. We currently own and operate three sugar and ethanol mills, UMA, Angélica and Ivinhema, with a total crushing capacity of 11.2 million tons of sugarcane per year as of December 31, 2016. UMA is a small but efficient mill located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, with a sugarcane crushing capacity of 1.2 million tons per year, full cogeneration capacity and an associated sugar brand with strong presence in the regional retail market (Açúcar Monte Alegre). We plant and harvest 99.5% of the sugarcane milled at UMA, with the remaining 0.4% acquired from third parties. Angélica and Ivinhema are two new, modern mills, which we built in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, with current sugarcane crushing capacities of 4.8 and 5.3 million tons per year, respectively. Both mills are located 45 km apart, and form a cluster surrounded by one large sugarcane plantation. Angelica and Ivinhema are equipped with high pressure steam boilers and turbo-generators with the capacity to use all the sugarcane bagasse by-product to generate electricity. Approximately 33% of the electricity generated is used to power the mill and the excess electricity is sold to the local power grid, resulting in the mills having full cogeneration capacity.

| 49 |

For the year ended December 31, 2016, we crushed 11.1 million tons of sugarcane. Our mills produce both sugar and ethanol, and accordingly, we have some flexibility to adjust our production (within certain capacity limits that generally vary between 40% and 60%) between sugar and ethanol, to take advantage of more favorable market demand and prices at given points in time. For the year ended December 31, 2016 we produced 701,060 tons of sugar and 422,395 cubic meters of ethanol.

As of December 31, 2016, our overall sugarcane plantation consisted of 134,591 hectares of sugarcane in the states of Mato Grosso do Sul and Minas Gerais, Brazil, of which 9,748 hectares of sugarcane were planted on owned land, and 124,843 hectares were planted on land leased from third parties under long term agreements.

Land Transformation Business: We acquire farmlands we believe are underdeveloped or underutilized and, by implementing cutting-edge production technology and agricultural best practices, transform the land to be suitable for more productive uses, enhance yields and increase the value of the land. During the fifteen-year period since our inception, we have effectively put into production 173,801 hectares of land that was previously undeveloped or undermanaged. During 2016, we put into production 4,274 hectares and in addition continued the transformation process of over 131,363 hectares we own. We realize and capture land transformation value through the strategic disposition of assets that have reached full development potential. We believe that the rotation of our land portfolio allows us to re-allocate capital efficiently, maximizing our return on invested capital. Our current owned land portfolio consists of 246,139 hectares, distributed throughout our operating regions as follows: 85% in Argentina, 14% in Brazil, and 1% in Uruguay. Between 2006 and 2015, we sold 20 of our fully mature farms, generating capital gains of approximately $205 million.

| 50 |

We promote sustainable land use through our land transformation activities, which seek to promote environmentally responsible agricultural production and a balance between production and ecosystem preservation. We do not operate in heavily wooded areas or wetland areas.

From time to time, the company seeks to recycle its capital by disposing of a portion of its fully developed farms. This allows the company to monetize the capital gains generated by its land transformation activities and allocate its capital to acquire land with higher transformation potential or to deploy it in other businesses, thereby enhancing the return on invested capital. Please see also “—Risks Related to Argentina—Recent Changes in Argentine law concerning foreign ownership of rural properties may adversely affect our results of operations and future investments in rural properties in Argentina” and “—Risks Related to Brazil— Recent changes in Brazilian rules concerning foreign investment in rural properties may adversely affect our investments.”

Our Strengths

We believe the following are our competitive strengths:

| • | Unique and strategic asset base. We own strategically located farmland and agro-industrial assets in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay. We engage in continuous improvement of our operations and practices, resulting in the reduction of operating costs and an increase in productivity, ultimately enhancing the value of our properties and generating capital gains. Our operations also benefit from strategically located industrial facilities throughout Argentina and Brazil, increasing operating efficiencies and reducing operating and logistical costs. We are vertically integrated where economics and returns are attractive, where the efficiency of our primary operation is significantly enhanced, or where lack of a competitive market results in the absence of a transparent price determination mechanism. Our diversified asset base creates valuable synergies and economies of scale, including (i) the ability to transfer the technologies and best practices that we have developed across our business lines, (ii) the ability to apply value-adding land transformation strategies to farmland in connection with our farming and sugarcane operations, and (iii) a greater ability to negotiate more favorable terms with our suppliers and customers.

Owning a significant portion of the land on which we operate is a key element of our business model.

| • | Low-cost production leveraging agro-ecological competitive advantages. Each of the commodity products we grow is produced in regions where agro-ecological conditions provide competitive advantages and which, through the implementation of our efficient and sustainable production model, allow us to become one of the lowest cost producers.

| • | Our grain and oilseed production is based in the Argentine humid pampas region where soil fertility, regular rainfalls, temperate climate, availability of land and proximity to ports contribute to the reduced use of fertilizers and agrochemicals, high productivity and stable yields and efficient logistics, ultimately resulting in one of the lowest costs per ton of grain produced and delivered.

| • | Our rice operation is located in the northeast provinces of Argentina, one of the best rice farming regions in the world due to plentiful sunlight, abundant availability of water for low cost irrigation and large potential for expansion.

| • | Our cotton production is focused in western Bahia, Brazil. This region is excellent for producing high quality cotton fiber due to its ideal climate, well drained soils and high altitude.

| 51 |

| • | Our dairy operation is situated in the Argentine humid pampas region, where cow feed (grains, oilseeds and forage) is efficiently and abundantly produced at a low cost and climate and sanitary conditions are optimal for cow comfort, which enhances productivity, cow reproduction rates and milk quality.

| • | We produce sugarcane in the center-south region of Brazil, where the combination of soil and climate result in high sugarcane productivity and quality, resulting in one of the lowest production costs in the world, significantly lower than other major sugar producing regions, including India, China, the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Germany.

| • | Standardized and scalable agribusiness model applying technological innovation. We have consistently used innovative production techniques to ensure that we are at the forefront of technological improvements and environmental sustainability standards in our industry. We are implementing an agribusiness model that consists of specializing our workforce and defining standard protocols to track crop development and control production variables, thereby enhancing management decision-making. We further optimize our agribusiness model through the effective implementation and constant adaptation of a portfolio of advanced agricultural and information technologies and best practices tailored to each region in which we operate and commodity we produce, allowing us to improve our crop yields, reduce operating costs and maximize margins in a sustainable manner.

| • | In our farming business, we use “no-till” technology as the cornerstone of our crop production and have been able to implement this technique in areas within our production regions where it had not been used before. Furthermore, we also utilize crop rotation, second harvests, integrated pest management, balanced fertilization, water management and mechanization. Additionally, we use the innovative silo bag storage method, utilizing large polyethylene bags with a capacity of 180-200 tons which can be left on the field for 12 months, resulting in low-cost, scalable and flexible storage on the field during harvest, which we believe allows us to expand our crop storage capacity at a low cost, generate important logistic and freight savings by moving our production in the off-season when freight fares are lower, and time the entry of our production into the market at optimal price points. See “—Operations and Principal Activities—Farming—Storage and Conditioning.”

| • | In our dairy business, we believe that we were the first company in South America to implement the “free-stall” production system, resulting in more efficient conversion of feed to fluid milk and higher production rates per cow compared to our peers in the region.

| • | In our sugar, ethanol and energy business, our sugarcane cluster, constituted by the Ivinhema and Angélica mills (i) has a highly mechanized planting and harvesting operation, which has increased our sugarcane production, reduced our operating costs and contributed to environmental sustainability by eliminating the need to burn the sugarcane before harvest; (ii) has the capacity to use all the bagasse (a by-product of the sugar and ethanol production process) that is produced, with almost no incremental cost, to cogenerate 216 MW of clean and renewable electricity; (iii) has the capacity of processing 50,400 tons of sugarcane per day and (iv) has the ability to recycle by-products such as filter cake and vinasse by using them as fertilizers in our sugarcane fields, as well as recycling water and other effluents, generating important savings in input costs and protecting the environment.

| • | Unique diversification model to mitigate cash flow volatility. We pursue a unique multi-tier diversification strategy to reduce our exposure to production and market fluctuations that may impact our cash flow and operating results. We seek geographic diversification by spreading our portfolio of farmland and agro-industrial assets across different regions of Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay, thereby lowering our risk exposure to weather-related losses and contributing to stable cash flows. Additionally, we produce a variety of products including soybeans, corn, wheat, sunflower, cotton, barley, sorghum, rice, fluid milk, sugar, ethanol and energy, which lowers our risk exposure to potentially depressed market conditions of any specific product. Moreover, through vertical integration in the rice, dairy, sugar, ethanol and energy businesses, we process and transform a portion of our agricultural commodities into branded retail products, reducing our commodity price risk and our reliance on the standard market distribution channels for unprocessed products. Finally, our commercial committee defines our commercial policies based on market fundamentals and the consideration of logistical and production data to develop a customized sale/hedge risk management strategy for each product.

| 52 |

| • | Expertise in acquiring farmland with transformation and appreciation potential. Since our inception in 2002, we have executed transactions for the purchase and disposition of land for over $688 million and sold over 77,000 hectares of developed land, generating capital gains of approximately $205 million. We believe we have a superior track record and have positioned ourselves as a key player in the land business in South America. Our business development team has gained extensive expertise in evaluating and acquiring farmland throughout South America and has a solid understanding of the productivity potential of each region and of the potential for land transformation and appreciation. To date, we have analyzed over 11 million hectares of farmland spread throughout the regions in which we operate and other productive regions in the world. We have developed a methodology to assess farmland and to appraise its potential value with a high degree of accuracy and efficiency by using information generated through sophisticated technology, including satellite images, rain and temperature records, soil analyses, and topography and drainage maps. Our management team has gained extensive experience in transforming and maximizing the appreciation potential of our land portfolio through the implementation of our agribusiness techniques described above. We also have an extensive track record of rotating our asset portfolio to generate capital gains and monetize the transformation and appreciation generated through our land transformation activities and agricultural operations.

| • | Experienced management team, knowledgeable employees. Our people are our most important asset. We have an experienced senior management team with an average of more than 20 years of experience working in our sector and a solid track record of implementing and executing large scale growth projects such as land transformations, greenfield developments of industrial plants, and integrating acquisitions within our organization. Recruiting technically qualified employees at each of our farms and operating sites is a main focus of our senior management and a key to our success.

Our Business Strategy

We intend to maintain our position as a leading agricultural company in South America by expanding and consolidating each of our business lines, creating value for our shareholders. The key elements of our business strategy are:

| • | Consolidate our sugar and ethanol cluster in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. Our main strategy for our sugar and ethanol business is to consolidate our cluster in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, through the expansion of our Ivinhema and Angelica mills, which as of December 2016 reached a nominal capacity of 11.2 million tons per year and are expected to reach 14.2 million tons by 2023. See “—Sugar, Ethanol and Energy—Our Mills.” The consolidation of the cluster will generate important synergies, operating efficiencies and economies of scale such as (i) a reduction in the average distance from the sugarcane fields to the mills, generating important savings in sugarcane transportation expenses; (ii) reduction in our total fixed costs per ton of sugarcane milled; and (iii) a large sugarcane plantation supplying two mills, allowing for non-stop harvesting. We believe that our sugarcane cluster in Mato Grosso do Sul will allow us to become one of the most efficient and low cost producers of sugar, ethanol and energy in Brazil. Additionally, we plan to continue to monitor closely the Brazilian sugar and ethanol industries and may pursue selective acquisitions that provide opportunities to increase our economies of scale, operating synergies and profitability.

| • | Expand our farming business through organic growth, leasing and strategic acquisitions. We will continue to seek opportunities for organic growth, target attractive acquisition and leasing opportunities and strive to maximize operating synergies and achieve economies of scale in each of our three main farming business areas (crops, rice and dairy). We plan to continue expanding and consolidating our crop production throughout South America. We also intend to continue expanding our rice segment in terms of production and processing capacity, consolidating our leading position in Argentina and increasing our presence throughout Brazil, Uruguay and other regions, to become a leading regional player. We also plan to increase our current milk production using the “free-stall” model.

| • | Further increase our operating efficiencies while maintaining a diversified portfolio. We intend to continue to focus on improving the efficiency of our operations and maintaining a low-cost structure to increase our profitability and protect our cash flows from commodity price cycle risk. We seek to maintain our low-cost platform by (i) making additional investments in advanced technologies, including those related to agricultural, industrial and logistical processes and information technology, (ii) improving our economies of scale through organic growth, strategic acquisitions, and more efficient production methods, and (iii) fully utilizing our resources to increase our production margins. In addition, we intend to mitigate commodity price cycle risk and minimize our exposure to weather related losses by (i) maintaining a diversified product mix and vertically integrating production of certain commodities and (ii) geographically diversifying the locations of our farms.

| 53 |

| • | Continue to implement our land transformation strategy. We plan to continue to enhance the value of our owned farmland and future land acquisitions by making them suitable for more profitable agricultural activities, thereby seeking to maximize the return on our invested capital in our land assets. In addition, from time to time we expect to continue rotating our land portfolio through strategic dispositions of certain properties in order to realize and monetize the transformation and appreciation value created by our land transformation activities. We also plan to leverage our knowledge and experience in land asset- management to identify superior buying and selling opportunities.

Soybeans

Soybeans are an annual legume widely grown due to their high content of protein (40%) and oil (20%). They have been grown for over 3,000 years in Asia and, more recently, have been successfully cultivated around the world. The world’s top producers of soybeans currently are the United States, Brazil, Argentina, China and India. Soybeans are one of the few plants that provide a complete protein supply as they contain all eight essential amino acids. About 85% of the world’s soybeans are processed, or “crushed,” annually into soybean meal and oil. Approximately 98% of soybean meal is further processed into animal feed, with the balance used to make soy flour and proteins. Approximately 85% of the oil content of soybeans is consumed as edible oil and the rest is used for industrial products such as fatty acids, soaps and biodiesel. We sell our soybeans mainly to crushing and processing industries, which produce soybean oil and soybean meal used in the food, animal feed and biofuel industries.

We grow soybeans in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay. In the 2013/2014 harvest year, we planted a total area of 82,980 hectares of soybeans, producing a total of 218,608 tons representing 45% of our total crop planted area that year, and 34% of our total crop production. In the 2014/15 harvest year, we planted a total area of 96,476 hectares of soybeans, producing a total of 285,914 tons representing 51% of our total crop planted area that year, and 46% of our total crop production. In the 2015/16 harvest year, we planted a total area of 88,377 hectares of soybean, producing a total of 237,681 tons representing 51% of our total crop planted area that year, and 41% of our total crop production.

Soybeans comprised, 11%, 11%, and 7% of our total consolidated sales in 2014, 2015, and 2016 respectively

Corn

Corn is a cereal grown around the world and is one of the world’s most widely consumed foods. The main component of corn grain is starch (72% to 73% of grain weight), followed by proteins (8% to 11%). Corn grain is directly used for food and animal feed (beef, swine and poultry meat production and dairy). Corn is also processed to make food and feed ingredients (such as high fructose corn syrup, corn starch and lysine), or industrial products such as ethanol and polylactic acid (PLA). Oil, flour and sugar are also extracted from corn, with several uses in the food, medicine and cosmetic industries. Additionally, there are specific corn types used for direct human consumption such as popcorn and sweet corn.

We grow corn in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay. In the 2013/2014 harvest year, we planted a total area of approximately 51,212 hectares of corn, including the second harvest, producing a total of 318,381 tons of corn representing 28% of our total planted area that year, and 49% of our total crop production. In the 2014/2015 harvest year, we planted a total area of approximately 39,099 hectares of corn, including the second harvest, producing a total of 230,386 tons of corn representing 21% of our total planted area that year, and 37% of our total crop production. In the 2015/2016 harvest year, we planted a total area of approximately 42,657 hectares of corn, including the second harvest, producing a total of 248,269 tons of corn representing 25% of our total crop planted area that year, and 43% of our total crop production.

Corn comprised 10% of our consolidated sales in 2014, 6% of our consolidated sales in 2015, and 6% of our consolidated sales in 2016.

Wheat

Wheat is the world’s largest cereal-grass crop. Unlike other cereals, wheat grain contains a high amount of gluten, the protein that provides the elasticity necessary for excellent bread making. Although most wheat is grown for human consumption, other industries use small quantities to produce starch, paste, malt, dextrose, gluten, alcohol, and other products. Inferior and surplus wheat and various milling byproducts are used for livestock feed. We sell wheat to exporters and to local mills that produce flour for the food industry.

We grow wheat in Argentina and Uruguay. In the 2014/2015 harvest year we planted a total area of approximately 37,020 hectares of wheat, producing a total of 84,610 tons of wheat. In the 2015/2016 harvest year, we planted a total area of approximately 32,393 hectares of wheat, producing a total of 82,156 tons of wheat. In the current 2016/2017 harvest year, we planted a total area of approximately 37,998 hectares of wheat, producing a total of 102,950 tons of wheat.

| 56 |

Wheat comprised 1% of our total consolidated sales in 2014, 2% of our total consolidated sales in 2015, and 2% of our total consolidated sales in 2016.

Sunflower

There are two types of sunflower, the most important in terms of volume being the oilseed sunflower, which is primarily grown for the oil extracted from the seed. Sunflower oil is considered one of the top three oils for human consumption, due to its high oil content (39-49%) and its oil composition (90% of oleic and linoleic oil). The other type of sunflower is the confectionary sunflower, which is used for direct human consumption. Sunflower seeds are an exceptional source of vitamin E, omega-6 fatty acids, dietary fiber and minerals. We grow both types of sunflower.

We grow sunflower in Argentina and Uruguay. In the 2013/2014 harvest year, we planted a total area of approximately 12,880 hectares of sunflower producing a total of 23,161 tons of sunflower representing 7% of our total crop planted area that year, and 4% of our total crop production. In the 2014/2015 harvest year, we planted a total area of approximately 12,314 hectares of sunflower producing a total of 21,762 tons of sunflower representing 7% of our total crop planted area that year, and 3% of our total crop production. In the 2015/2016 harvest year, we planted a total area of approximately 9,547 hectares of sunflower producing a total of 15,521 tons of sunflower representing 6% of our total crop planted area that year, and 3% of our total crop production.

Sunflower comprised 1% of our total consolidated sales in 2014, 2% in 2015, and 1% in 2016.

Cotton

Cotton is the world’s most popular natural fiber. The cotton fiber is made primarily into yarns and threads for use in the textile and apparel sectors. Clothing accounts for approximately 60% of cotton consumption. Cotton is also used to make home furnishings, such as draperies (the third major end use), or professional garments (about 5% of cotton fiber demand). The cottonseed is used in animal feeding or crushed in order to separate its three products — oil, meal and hulls. Cottonseed oil is used primarily for cooking oil and salad dressing. In recent years, there has been a growing demand for cotton oil for biodiesel production.

We plant upland cotton, the most common type of cotton planted and processed around the world. We produce and sell cotton lint and cotton seed.

We grow cotton in northern Argentina and in the western part of Bahia, Brazil. In the 2013/2014 harvest year, we planted a total area of approximately 6,217 hectares of cotton producing a total of 6,118 tons of cotton lint, representing 3% of our total planted crop area that year, and 1% of our total crop production. In the 2014/2015 harvest year, we planted a total area of approximately 3,160 hectares of cotton producing a total of 2,344 tons of cotton lint, representing 2% of our total planted crop area that year, and 0.4% of our total crop production. We did not plant any cotton in the 2015/16 harvest year.

Cotton comprised 1% of our total consolidated sales in 2014, 0.5% of our total consolidated sales in 2015 and 0% of our total consolidated sales in 2016.

Forages

In addition to the above mentioned crops, we are engaged in the production of forage in Argentina, including corn silage, wheat silage, soybean silage and alfalfa silage. We use forage as cow feed in our dairy operation. During the 2015/2016 harvest year, we planted 4,718 hectares of forage and produced 136,797 tons of forage.

Crop Production Process

Our crop production process is directly linked to the geo-climatic conditions of our farms and our crop cycles, which define the periods for planting and harvesting our various products. Our crop diversification and the location of our farms in various regions of South America enable us to implement an efficient planting and harvesting system throughout the year, which includes second harvests in many cases. Our production process begins with the planting of each crop. After harvesting, crops may go through a processing phase where the grain or seeds are cleaned and dried to reach the required market standards.

Rice Business

Rice is the main food staple for about half of the world’s population. Although it is cultivated in over 100 countries and on almost every continent, 90% of the world’s rice is grown and consumed in Asia. Globally, rice is the most important crop in terms of its contribution to human diets and production value. There are three main types of rice: short grain, medium grain and long grain rice. Each one has a different taste and texture. We produce long grain rice and Carolina double rice, a variety of medium grain rice.

We conduct our rice operation in the northeast of Argentina, which is one of the most efficient locations in the world for producing rice at a low cost. This is a result of optimum natural agronomic conditions, including plentiful sunlight, abundant availability of water for low cost irrigation and large quantities of land. The use of public water for artificial irrigation is governed by provincial regulations and is subject to the granting of governmental permits. We currently have permits for the use of water in our production of rice in the provinces of Corrientes and Santa Fe. Maintenance of our permits is subject to our compliance with applicable laws and regulations, which is supervised by the corresponding governmental authority (e.g., the Ministry of Water, Public Services and Environment (Ministerio de Agua, Servicios Publicos y Medio Ambiente), in the province of Santa Fe, and the Water Institute of the Province of Corrientes (Instituto Correntino del Agua).

We grow rice on four farms we own and two farms we lease, all located in Argentina. In the 2014/2015 harvest year, we planted a total area of approximately 35,328 hectares of rice, producing a total of 180,149 tons, representing 16% of our total planted area that year, and 22% of our total farming production. In the 2015/2016 harvest year, we planted a total area of approximately 37,580 hectares of rice, producing a total of 220,758 tons, representing 18% of our total planted area that year, and 27% of our total farming production. In the current 2016/2017 harvest year, we planted a total of 39,728 hectares of rice, which have not been fully harvested as of the date of this report.

Production Process

The rice production cycle lasts approximately five to six months, beginning in September of each year and ending in April of the following year. Rice planting continues until November, followed by treatment of the rice, which lasts approximately three months, until January. In February we begin harvesting, which lasts until April. After harvesting, the rice is ready for processing.

We process rice in our three rice mills in Argentina, where we are able to process our entire rice crop and utilize our excess milling capacity to process rough rice we purchase from third party growers.

At the mill, we clean the rice to remove all impurities. We then put it through a dryer to remove excess moisture from the grains. Proper drying results in increased storage life, prevents deterioration in quality and leads to optimum milling. Once dried, the rice grain, now known as rough rice or paddy rice, is ready for storage. We store rice in elevators or in silo bags until milling. During the milling process, the rough rice goes through a de-husking machine that removes the husk from the kernel. The rice that is obtained after this process is known as brown rice and is ready for human consumption. Brown rice becomes white rice after it is polished to remove the excess bran.

The main objective of the milling process is to remove the husk and the bran, preserving the quality of the whole grain. Although the process is highly automated and uses advanced technology, some rice grains are broken in the process. The percentage of broken rice depends on a number of factors such as the crop development cycle at the farm, the variety of the grain, the handling and the industrial process. Average processing of rough rice results in 58% white rice, 11% broken rice and 31% rice husk and bran which is sold for use as cattle feed or floor bedding in the poultry business.

Rice comprised 14% of our total consolidated sales in 2014, 13% in 2015 and 11% in 2016.

Rice Seed Production

In our rice seed facility in Argentina, we are involved in the genetic development of new rice varieties adapted to local conditions to increase rice productivity and quality to improve both farm production as well as the manufacturing process. In connection with these efforts, we have entered into agreements with selected research and development institutions such as the National Institute of Agriculture Technology (Instituto Nacional de Tecnología Agropecuaria, or “INTA”) in Argentina, the Latin American Fund for Irrigated Rice (Fondo Latinoamericano para Arroz de Riego, or “FLAR”) and Latin American Rice Hybrids (Híbridos de Arroz para América Latina, or “HIAAL”) in Colombia, the Santa Catarina State Agricultural Research and Rural Extension Agency (Empresa de pesquisa Agropecuária e Extensão Rural de Santa Catarina, or “EPAGRI”) in Brazil and Badische Anilin- und Soda-Fabrik (“Basf”) in Germany. Our own technical team is continuously testing and developing new rice varieties. Our first rice seed variety, Ita Caabo 105, was released to the market in 2008. In 2011 we released our second variety Ita Caabo 110, and at the beginning of 2014 we released our third variety, Ita Caabo 107. We are currently experimenting with a wide range of varieties to continue improving our productivity. These seeds are both used at our farms and sold to rice farmers in Argentina, and eventually in Brazil, Uruguay and Paraguay. We are also developing, alongside Basf, a herbicide-tolerant rice variety to assist in the control of harmful weeds.

Dairy Business

We conduct our dairy operation in our farms located in the Argentine humid pampas region. This region is one of the best places in the world for producing fluid milk at a low cost, due to the availability of grains and forages produced efficiently and at low cost, and favorable weather for cow comfort and productivity. Our dairy operation consists of two free-stall dairy facilities with a total capacity of approximately 6,880 milking cows.

| 59 |

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated below, the total number of our dairy cows, average daily milk production per cow and our total milk production:

As of December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, we owned a dairy herd of 7,618 7,824, and 7,396 head, respectively, including 6,880, 6,658, and 6,440 milking cows, respectively, with an average production of 36.7, 36.4; and 33.8 liters per cow per day, respectively.

Dairy comprised 5% of our total consolidated sales in 2014and 2015 and 4% in 2016

Production Process

We wean calves during the 24 hours subsequent to birth and during the next 60 days raise them on pasteurized milk and high protein meal. Male calves are fed concentrates and hay for an additional 30 days in the farm before they are sent to our feedlot to be fattened for sale. Young heifers remain in open corrals during the next 13 months where they are fed with concentrates and forage until they are ready for breeding. Calving occurs nine months later. Heifers are subsequently milked for an average of 320 days. Dairy cows are once again inseminated during the 60- to 90-day period following calving. This process is repeated once a year for a period of six or seven years. The pregnancy rate for our herd is between 85% and 90% per year.

Each cow in our dairy herd is mechanically milked three times a day. The milk obtained is cooled to less than four degrees centigrade in order to preserve its quality and is then stored in a tank. Milk is delivered to large third party milk processing facilities on a daily basis by tank trucks. We feed our dairy cows mainly with corn and alfalfa silages, some grass and corn grain, supplemented as needed with soybean by-products, hay, vitamins and minerals.

We have invested in technology to improve the genetics of our cows, animal health and feeding in order to enhance our milk production. These investments include top quality imported semen from genetically improved North American Holstein bulls, agricultural machinery and devices, use of dietary supplements and modern equipment to control individual milk production and cooling. Our feeding program is focused on high conversion of feed into milk, while maintaining cows in good health and comfort. We have also invested in technology and know-how so as to increase our forage production and utilization.

In 2007, we began the construction of an advanced “free-stall” dairy in Argentina, which we believe was the first of its kind in South America, and started operating in March 2008. This new technology allows large- scale milk production at increased efficiency levels. Our free-stall dairy model consists of 3,000 cows confined inside a large barn where they are free to move within the indoor corrals. We feed our cows specific protein rich diets composed of corn grain and silage and milk them three times a day, using a milking mechanism consisting of an 80-cow rotary platform, which milks an average of 500 cows per hour. Having proved the success of our model we built a second free stall diary in 2011 and started operations during August 2012.

Implementation of the free-stall system allows us to position ourselves as a key player in the dairy industry and will boost our agricultural and industrial integration presence in the South American agricultural sector. By eliminating cow grazing, we reduce the amount of land utilized for milk production, which frees up more land for our agricultural and land development activities. Cow productivity (measured in liters of milk produced per day) using the free-stall system increases by over 50% compared to traditional grazing systems. These productivity gains are because the free-stall system significantly improves the conversion rate of animal feed to milk, resulting in an approximate 40% increase in the conversion ratio, or the production of 1.4 liters of milk for each 1 kg of animal feed as compared to the average of 1 liter of milk for each 1 kg of feed associated with the usual grazing model.

| 60 |

This increased productivity and conversion rate are mainly due to improved cow comfort and an enhanced diet quality. We assess cow comfort through the engagement of expert consultants, who recommended designing beds covered with sand. The sand plays a significant role in helping cows to rest comfortably. Additionally, we installed a cooling system to increase cow comfort as well. This system relies on water sprinklers and ventilation fans located all over the facility to create a controlled, cool atmosphere, which improves cow comfort as the Holstein herd is originally adapted to cold regions. Additionally, we manage diet quality by adapting our feeding regime based on the various feeding stages in the lifetime of each cow. The actual feeding is fully mechanized, and we carefully control the harvesting and storage of feed. The control of all productivity variables, such as reproduction, health and operations, supports efficiency gains through standardized processes. Finally, the physical concentration of the animals facilitates efficient overall management of the dairy business.

In terms of the environment, the free-stall model allows for a better effluent treatment, which includes a sand-manure separator stage, a decantation pool and an anaerobic lagoon. All these processes help to decrease the organic matter content of the effluent and deliver a cleaner output. The final treated effluent is used to fert-irrigate crops adjacent to the dairy operation. Accordingly, we transform dairy waste into a high value-added by-product, which reduces fertilizer usage. During the end of 2016, we began the construction of a bio-digester in our free-stall operation. This plant will capture methane gas from manure to co-generate electricity. This project will allow us to improve our manure treatment process and reduce CO2 emissions, and co-generate sufficient electricity to power our dairy operations and supply approximately 9,145 MWh of excess electricity to the local power grid. We received a grant from Sustainable Energy and Climate Change Initiative from the Inter-American Development Bank (SECCI) in order to carry out the pre-feasibility assessment. We have also received a grant from the “Agencia Nacional de Promoción Científica y Tecnologica”, an agency which promotes technological innovation, to partially fund the investment. In July 2016, we participated of Argentina’s “RenovAr” renewable energy auction and entered into a 20-year contract to supply up to 9,145 MWh per year at an average price of USD 158.92 per MWh.

The free-stall dairy is expected to allow us to become an efficient large-scale milk producer and optimize the use of our resources (land, cattle and capital) through the standardization of processes. Process standardization provides high operational control and allows us to scale-up our production efficiently and quickly.

All Other Segments

All Other Segments encompasses our cattle and coffee businesses. In December 2009, we strategically decided to sell almost all of our cattle herd — other than our dairy cows — to Quickfood S.A. (now “Marfrig Argentina S.A.”), an Argentine company and a subsidiary of the Brazilian company, Marfrig Alimentos S.A. (“Marfrig”), for a purchase price of $14.2 million. Additionally, we entered into a 10-year lease agreement under which Marfig Argentina S.A. leases grazing land from us to raise and fatten cattle.

In September 2013, Marfrig Argentina S.A. notified us of their intention to early terminate in the fourth quarter of 2013 the lease agreements of the approximately 63,000 hectares of grazing land subject to the 10-year lease agreement. The termination of the lease agreement was effective in the fourth quarter of 2013. We commenced an arbitration proceeding against Marfrig Argentina and Marfrig Alimentos in 2014 claiming unpaid invoices and indemnification for early termination for US$ 23,000,000. See “Item8. Financial Information – Legal and Administrative Proceedings”.

We currently own 60,713 hectares of cattle grazing land located mainly in the Argentine provinces of Corrientes, Santa Fe and Buenos Aires. In 2016 we entered into lease agreements with third party cattle farmers for a total area of 27,216 hectares.

During May 2013, Adecoagro entered into an agreement to sell the Mimoso farm and Lagoa do Oeste farm located in Luis Eduardo Magalhaes, Bahia, Brazil. The farms have a total area of 3,834 hectares of which 904 hectares are planted with coffee trees. In addition, we entered into an agreement whereby the buyer will operate and make use of 728 hectares of existing coffee trees in our Rio de Janeiro farm for an 8-year period. The total consideration for this transaction was $24 million, of which $6.0 million were collected as of December 31, 2013 and the balance to be paid in three annual installments in 2014, 2015 and 2016. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, we will retain ownership of the coffee trees, which are expected to have an estimated useful life of 8 years in respect of the Rio de Janeiro farm after expiration of the agreement. We do not expect our coffee business to generate sales in future periods.

Storage and Conditioning

Our storage and conditioning facilities in the farming business allow us to condition, store and deliver our products with no third-party involvement. All our crop storage facilities are located close to our farms, allowing us to (i) reduce storage and conditioning costs; (ii) reduce freight costs since we only commence moving the product once the final destination is determined, whether locally or to a port, (iii) capitalize on fluctuations in the prices of commodities; and (iv) improve commercial performance by mixing grains to avoid discounts due to sub-standard quality.

We own five conditioning and storage facilities for grains and oilseeds, with a total built storage capacity of 28,800 tons. Our largest storage facility, with a capacity of 18,700 tons, is located in the province of Santa Fe, Argentina, in the town of Christophersen. It has a railway loading terminal, providing logistical flexibility and savings. We also own in Argentina three rice mills, which account for over 116,854 tons of total storage capacity, and two additional storage and conditioning facilities for rice handling, with a total storage capacity of 5,700 tons.

Set forth below is our storage capacity as of December 31, 2016:

Storage Capacity |  | Nominal |
Crops (tons) |  |  | 28,806 |
Rice (tons) |  |  | 116,854 |

In addition, we use silo bags to increase our storage capacity at low cost. Silo bags are an efficient low-cost method for grain storage. As crops are harvested, they are placed inside large polyethylene bags that can be left in the fields for approximately 12 months without damaging the grain. Each silo bag can hold up to 180 to 200 tons of product, depending on the type of grain. During the 2015/2016 harvest year, we stored approximately 27% of our grain production through silo bags.

Silo bags offer important operational and logistic advantages, such as (i) low cost storage; (ii) flexible and scalable capacity that is adapted based on production and commercial strategy; (iii) harvest efficiencies since the bags are filled on the field allowing for a non-stop harvest operation regardless of any logistical setbacks; (iv) logistic efficiencies leading to lower freight since grains are transported during the off-season when truck fares are lower; (v) increased ability to monitor quality and identify different grain qualities, since grains are stored in relatively small amounts (200 tons) and easily monitored, maximizing our commercial performance; and (vi) better use of our drying capacity throughout the year. Silo bags are commercially accepted. Grains stored in silo bags can be sold in the market, and if such grains are to be delivered post harvest, we charge storage costs. Additionally, we can store grains to be used as seed during the following season (soybeans, rice and wheat), achieving quality seed management. We have expanded the use of silo bags from Argentina to our operations in Brazil and Uruguay.

Grain conditioning facilities at our farms allow our trade desk to optimize commercialization costs and to achieve commercial quality standards and avoid price discounts. These facilities are operated to dry, clean, mix and separate different qualities of each grain in order to achieve commercial standards. By mixing different batches of a same grain type, differentiated by quality parameters such as moisture, percentage broken, and percentage damaged, among others, we can achieve commercial standards without having to discount a lower-quality stand-alone batch. Efficient management of these facilities results in a lower cost for grain conditioning and a better achievable price.

Set forth below is our drying capacity as of December 31, 2016:

Drying Capacity |  | Nominal |
Crops (tons/day) |  |  | 2,400 |
Rice (tons/day) |  |  | 5,300 |

Some grains such as soybeans, wheat and rice, can be used for seed during the next planting season. We produce almost 97% of the seed used for planting these crops in our fields. The seed is stored in silo bags and/or grain facilities, where it can be processed, classified, and prepared for planting during next crop season. A deep survey and monitoring process is carried out in order to evaluate, control and deliver high quality seed to our farms.

The rest of our seed requirements are purchased from seed suppliers in order to incorporate new enhanced varieties into our planting plan.

Marketing, Sales and Distribution

Crops

In Argentina, grain prices are based on the market prices quoted on Argentine grain exchanges, such as the Bolsa de Cereales de Buenos Aires and the Bolsa de Cereales de Rosario, which use as a reference the prevailing prices in international grain exchanges (including CBOT and ICE-NY). In Uruguay, local prices are based on an export parity (during harvest) or import parity in the case of post-harvest sales, which, in each case, take into account the prices and costs associated with each market. In Brazil, the grain market includes the Bolsa de Mercadorias e Futuros (Brazilian Grain Exchange), which, as in Argentina, uses as a price reference the international grain exchanges (including CBOT and ICE-NY). Prices are quoted in relation to the month of delivery and the port in which the product is to be delivered. Different conditions in price, such as terms of storage and shipment, are negotiated between us and the end buyer. We negotiate sales with the top traders and industrial companies in our markets. We also engage in hedging positions by buying and selling futures and options in commodities exchanges, including the Chicago Board of Trade, the New York Board of Trade, BM&FBOVESPA and the Mercado a Término de Buenos Aires (MATBA).

Soybeans: Our soybean crop is sold to local companies and is ultimately exported or diverted to the crushing industry. Approximately 56% of the soybean crop was hedged pre-harvest, by forward sales and sales in the futures markets. Harvest and post-harvest sales are a function of the export market versus local premiums paid by crushers (oil, meal and biodiesel) and logistics considerations. Our five largest customers comprised approximately 63% of our sales in the year ended December 31, 2016. In Argentina, the applicable export tax rate on soybeans is 30%. There are no export taxes in Brasil and Uruguay.

During 2016 we sold more than 39,000 tons (approximately 16% of our production) certified by the Round Table on Responsible Soybean (“RTRS”), capturing premiums over market value. RTRS is a civil organization that promotes responsible production, processing, and trading of soy on a global level. During 2012 and 2013 we also certified our silo plant in Argentina under 2BSvs (Biomass, Biofuels Sustainability Voluntary Scheme), based on sustentability criteria of the European Directive 2009/28/EC.

Corn: Approximately 85% of our total production is exported, of which 26% are FOB sales, with the remainder destined for domestic use in the poultry and food industry, and in our dairy operations. All of our Brazilian production is sold domestically for regional consumption. Approximately 40% of the corn crop was hedged pre-harvest. Approximately 3% of our corn production was destined for special products such as corn seed and popcorn. Our four largest customers comprised approximately 50% of our sales in the year ended December 31, 2015.

Wheat: Approximately % of our production is destined for local market and 60% is exported. Quality segregation allows us to negotiate premiums with the millers and export market. Brazil is the main importer of Argentine wheat. Our four largest customers comprised approximately 62% of our sales in the year ended December 31, 2016.

Sunflower: Our sunflower production from Argentina is sold to local companies. Sales are made pursuant by production agreements of sunflower for confectionary, high oil content sunflower and seed. Our three largest customers comprised 93% of our sales in the year ended December 31, 2016.

Rice: Rough rice is available for sale commencing after the harvest of each year. White rice availability is based on our milling capacity. 67% of our total rice production is sold into the export market, with the remainder sold in Argentina in the retail market. We export approximately 21% of our exported volume to the Middle East, 73% to other Latin American countries, and the remainder is exported to Africa. . We sell approximately 33% of our rice in the Argentine retail market through two brands we own that have a 15.9% market share. Local rice prices are driven by regional supply demand and exchange rate in Brazil. Our five largest customers for rice comprised approximately 67% of our sales in the year ended December 31, 2016.

Dairy: During most of 2016, we sold our entire fluid milk production to four dairy producers. These companies manufacture a range of consumer products sold in Argentina and abroad. We negotiate the price of fluid milk on a monthly basis in accordance with domestic supply and demand with these companies. The price of the milk we sell is mainly based on the percentage of fat and protein that it contains and the temperature at which it is cooled. The price we obtain for our milk also rises or falls based on the content of bacteria and somatic cells.

Sugar, Ethanol and Energy

Sugarcane

Sugarcane is the most efficient agricultural raw material used in the production of sugar and ethanol. Ethanol produced from sugarcane is highly regarded as an environmentally friendly biofuel with the following characteristics.

| • | Renewable: Sugarcane ethanol, unlike coal or oil, which can be depleted, is produced from sugarcane plants that grow back year after year, provided that they are replanted every six to eight years.

| • | Sustainable: Sugarcane only needs to be replanted every five to seven years, as a semi-perennial crop. It can be harvested without uprooting the plant, and therefore its cultivation has less of an impact on the soil and the surrounding environment. The mechanization of the harvesting and planting process further improves sustainable agricultural management.

| • | Energy Efficient: Sugarcane is highly efficient in converting sunlight, water and carbon dioxide into stored energy. The energy output of sugarcane is equal to nine times the energy input used in the production process, whereas the energy output of corn ethanol is only about 1.9 to 2.3 times the energy input used in its production process.

| • | Low Carbon Emissions: Compared to gasoline, sugarcane ethanol reduces greenhouse gases by more than 61%, which is the greatest reduction of any other liquid biofuel produced today in large quantities. Ethanol made from sugarcane is deemed an advanced biofuel by the United States EPA.

| • | Synergies: The main raw material used in the production of electricity in sugar mills is bagasse, which is a by-product of the sugarcane milling process, allowing for a renewable source of co- generated electricity.

Sugarcane is a tropical grass that grows best in locations with stable, warm temperatures and high humidity, although cold and dry winters are an important factor for the sucrose concentration of sugarcane. The climate and topography of the center-south region of Brazil is ideal for the cultivation of sugarcane and accounts for approximately 85% of Brazil’s sugarcane production.

As of December 31, 2016, our sugarcane plantations consisted of 134,591 hectares of sugarcane planted in the center-south region of Brazil. Approximately 93% of our sugarcane is planted over land leased through agricultural partnerships. Under these agreements, our partners lease land to us for periods of between one and two sugarcane cycles, equivalent to periods of between 10 to 12 years, on which we cultivate the sugarcane. Lease payments are based on the market value of the sugarcane set forth by the regulations of the State of Sao Paulo Sugarcane, Sugar and Alcohol Growers Counsel (Conselho dos Produtores de Cana-de-Açúcar, Açúcar e Álcool do Estado de Sao Paulo, or “Consecana”). We planted and harvested approximately 91% of the total sugarcane we milled during 2016, with the remaining 9% purchased directly from third parties at prices also determined by the Consecana system, based on the sucrose content of the cane and the prices of sugar and ethanol. The following table sets forth a breakdown during the time periods indicated of the amount of sugarcane we milled that was grown on our owned and leased land or purchased from third parties:

|  | Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |
Grown on our owned and leased land (tons) |  |  | 10,164,671 |  |  |  | 7,396,926 |  |  |  | 6,418,274 |
Purchased from third parties (tons) |  |  | 949,837 |  |  |  | 938,521 |  |  |  | 814,554 |
Total (tons) |  |  | 11,114,508 |  |  |  | 8,335,447 |  |  |  | 7,232,828 |

Sugarcane Harvesting Cycle

The annual sugarcane harvesting period in the center-south region of Brazil begins in April and ends in November/December of each year. In Mato Grosso do Sul, where our cluster is located, the weather pattern is less seasonal than in Sao Paulo. Our wet season is dryer and our dry season is more humid than traditional sugarcane regions. As a consequence of this weather pattern, the sugar content (TRS) gap between the beginning and the end of the year compared to the peak of the harvest is much smaller than in Sao Paulo. This allows us to grow and harvest sugarcane year round with a minimal impact on sugar content (TRS).

Since the beginning of the 2016/17 harvest year we implemented a “non-stop” or “continuous harvest”strategy. “Non-stop” or “continuous harvest” refers to a continuous operation where we harvest and crush sugarcane year-round, without stopping during the traditional off-season. This new strategy will allow us to increase annual sugarcane milling and sugar, ethanol and energy production by approximately 10%. Another benefit of the system is that we will be producing ethanol in the off-season, when market prices usually are higher than prices at harvest. In addition, cogeneration efficiency is related to harvested volumes and unrelated to TRS, enabling us to utilize our cogeneration potential during the whole year. Considering that approximately 85% of total costs are fixed, this model will result not only in higher revenues but also in the dilution of our fixed costs.

We plant several sugarcane varieties, depending on the quality of the soil, the local microclimate and the estimated date of harvest of such area. Once planted, sugarcane can be harvested, once a year, up to six to eight consecutive years. With each subsequent harvest, agricultural yields decrease. The plantations must be carefully managed and treated during the year in order to continue to attain sugar yields similar to a newly-planted crop.

We believe we own one of the most mechanized harvesting operations in Brazil. Our sugarcane harvesting process is currently 98% mechanized (100% at Angélica and Ivinhema mills and 84% at UMA mill) and the remaining 2% is harvested manually. Mechanized harvesting does not require burning prior to harvesting, significantly reducing environmental impact when compared to manual harvesting. In addition, the leaves that remain on the fields after the sugarcane has been harvested mechanically create a protective cover for the soil, reducing evaporation and protecting it from sunlight and erosion. This protective cover of leaves decomposes into organic material over time, which increases the fertility of the soil. Mechanized harvesting is more time efficient and has lower costs when compared to manual harvesting. Sugarcane is ready for harvesting when the crop’s sucrose content is at its highest level. Sucrose content and sugarcane yield (tons of cane per hectare) are important measures of productivity for our harvesting operations. Geographical factors, such as soil quality, topography and climate, as well as agricultural techniques that we implement, affect our productivity. Since most sugar mills produce both sugar and ethanol in variable mixes, the industry has adopted a conversion index for measuring sugar and ethanol production capacity, the Total Recoverable Sugar (“TRS”) index, which measures the amount of kilograms of sugar per ton of sugarcane.

During the 2016 harvest, our mills harvested sugarcane with an average TRS content of 127 kg/ton and an average yield of 98.0 tons of sugarcane per hectare.

Once the sugarcane is harvested, it is transported to our mills for inspection and weighing. We utilize our own trucks and trailers for transportation purposes. The average transportation distance from the sugarcane fields to the mills is approximately 28 kilometers at UMA and 33 kilometers at Angélica and Ivinhema.

Our Mills

We currently own three sugar mills in Brazil, UMA, Angélica and Ivinhema. Our mills produce sugar, ethanol and energy, and have the flexibility to adjust the production mix between sugar and ethanol, to take advantage of more favorable market demand and prices at given points in time. As of December 31, 2016, our sugar mills had a total installed crushing capacity of 11.2 million tons of sugarcane, of which 10.0 million tons correspond to our sugarcane cluster in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. As of December 31, 2016, we concluded the 2016 harvest crushing an aggregate volume of 11.1 million tons of sugarcane.

The Usina Monte Alegre mill (“UMA”) is located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, and has a sugarcane crushing capacity of 1.2 million tons per year, full cogeneration capacity and an associated sugar brand with strong presence in the regional retail market (Açúcar Monte Alegre). We plant and harvest 99.5% of the sugarcane milled at UMA, with the remaining 0.5% acquired from third parties. On December 31, 2016, UMA concluded its harvest operations for the 2016 season, crushing 1.1 million tons of sugarcane.

| 65 |

Angélica is an advanced mill, which we built in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, with a total sugarcane crushing capacity of 4.8 million tons per year. Angélica was completed in 2010 and is equipped with two modern high pressure boilers and three turbo-generators with the capacity to use all the sugarcane bagasse by-product to generate approximately 96 MW of electricity that is used to power the mill with an excess of 65MW available for sale to the power grid. Angélica has the flexibility to vary the product slate between 60% to 40% for either product.

During mid 2011, we started the construction of our third mill, Ivinhema, located in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, approximately 45 kilometers south of our existing Angelica mill, in order to complete our planned sugarcane cluster in that region. The construction of the first phase of the Ivinhema mill was completed during the beginning of 2013 reaching 2.0 million tons of sugarcane crushing capacity, and milling operations commenced on April 25, 2013. During early 2014, we began the construction of the second phase of the Ivinhema, adding 3.0 million tons of additional nominal crushing capacity. The investment consisted of expanding the milling equipment, building a new fluidized bed boiler, two new electrical generators and expanding the sugar factory and ethanol distillery, as well as expanding the sugarcane plantation and agricultural machinery.The construction was completed during mid 2015. Ivinhema now has a total milling capacity of 5.3 million tons per year. The mill is equipped with state-of-the-art technology including full cogeneration capacity, flexibility to produce sugar and ethanol and fully mechanized agricultural operations. Ivinhema has capacity to produce up to 330,000 tons of sugar, 264,000 cubic meters of ethanol and 360,000 MWh of energy sales to the grid.

During March 2017 we commenced an expansion project to increase the crushing capacity of our cluster in Mato Grosso do Sul by 30% or 3.0 million tons, from 10.0 million tons to 13.0 million tons. The project will be implemented over the next five years and will be executed in two phases. Phase 1 consists of expanding Angelica’s crushing capacity by 0.9 million tons throughout 2017 and 2018. We will expand crushing capacity by 150 tons/hour by installing larger mill rollers in the first mill, and expanding the sugar centrifugation and ethanol filtration processes. Crushing will grow gradually and reach full capacity by 2019. Phase 2 will consist of expanding Ivinhema’s capacity by 2.1 million tons (400 tons/hour), between 2018 and 2022. This will be achieved by installing a new mill (#6) expanding the sugarcane reception, juice treatment and sugar factory. Crushing will grow gradually and reach full capacity in 2023. Total estimated capital expenditure is $166 million (52 USD/ton), of which 20% consists of industrial machinery and equipment, 15% of agricultural equipment (harvesters, tractors, trucks) and 65% of sugarcane planting (51,000 hectares) to supply the new nominal capacity. 55% of the capex will be deployed during 2017-2019, and 45% during 2020-2022.

We plant and harvest 91% of the sugarcane milled at our cluster, with the remaining 9% acquired from third parties. On December 31, 2016, our sugarcane cluster concluded its harvest operations for the 2016 season, crushing 10.0 million tons of sugarcane.

Sugar

As of December 31, 2016 our sugar production capacity was approximately 3,500 tons per day which, in a normal year of 6,819 hours of milling, results in an annual sugar maximum production capacity of over 994,408 tons of sugar. The increased capacity is the result of enhanced operational efficiencies and the completion of the second phase of the Ivinhema mill. In 2016, we produced 701,060 tons of sugar, compared to 464,929 tons of sugar in 2015 and 413,687 tons of sugar in 2014.

We produce two types of sugar: very high polarization (“VHP”) standard raw sugar and white crystal sugar. VHP sugar, a raw sugar with a 99.3% or higher sucrose content, is similar to the type of sugar traded in major commodities exchanges, including the standard NY11 contract. The main difference between VHP sugar and NY11 raw sugar is the sugar content of VHP sugar, and it therefore commands a price premium over NY11 raw sugar. Crystal sugar is a non-refined white sugar (color 150 ICUMSA) produced directly from sugarcane juice.

Sugar sales comprised 22% of our total consolidated sales in 2014, 26% of our total consolidated sales in 2015 and 38% of our total consolidated sales in 2016.

Ethanol

As of December 2016, our ethanol production capacity was approximately 2,900 cubic meters per day which, in a normal year of 6,819 hours of milling, results in maximum annual production capacity of over 823,938 cubic meters of ethanol. The increased capacity is the result of enhanced operational efficiencies and the completion of the second phase of the Ivinhema mill. In 2014 we produced 299,810 cubic meters of ethanol, compared to 361,001 cubic meters in 2015 and 445,395 cubic meters in 2016.

We produce and sell two different types of ethanol: hydrous ethanol and anhydrous ethanol (as further described in “—Production Process—Ethanol”). Ethanol sales comprised 23% of our total consolidated sales in 2014, 26% of our total consolidated sales in 2015 and 22% of our total consolidated sales in 2016.

Cogeneration

We generate electricity from sugarcane bagasse (the fiber portion of sugarcane that remains after the extraction of sugarcane juice) in our three mills located in Brazil. As of December 31, 2016, total installed cogeneration capacity reached 232MW, of which 162MW are available for resale to third parties after supplying our mills’ energy requirements. The ability to generate electricity from the by-product of the sugarcane crushing process on a large enough scale to fully power a mill with excess electricity being available is referred to as having full cogeneration capacity. Our three mills are duly licensed by the Agência Nacional de Energia Elétrica (“ANEEL”) to generate and sell electricity. During the year ended December 31, 2016 , 2015 and 2014 we sold 1,028,323 MWh, 607,532 MWh and 445,705 MWh to the local electricity market, comprising 5%, 13%, 8% of our consolidated sales respectively.

Production Process

Sugar. There are essentially five steps in the sugar manufacturing process. First, we crush the sugarcane to extract the sugarcane juice. We then treat the juice to remove impurities. The residue is used to make an organic compost used as fertilizer in our sugarcane fields. The juice is then boiled until the sugar crystallizes, and sugar is then separated from the molasses (glucose which does not crystallize) by centrifugation. The resulting sugar is dried and sent to storage and/or packaging. We use the molasses in our production of ethanol.

Ethanol. Ethanol is produced through the fermentation of sugarcane juice or diluted molasses. Initially, we process the sugarcane used in ethanol production the same way that we process it for sugar production. The molasses resulting from this process is mixed with clear juice and then with yeast in fermentation vats, and the resulting wine has an ethanol content of approximately 8% to 10%. After the fermentation is complete, the yeast is separated for recycling in the ethanol production process. We distill the wine to obtain hydrous ethanol. In order to produce anhydrous ethanol, hydrous ethanol undergoes a dehydration process in a molecular sieve. The liquid remaining after these processes is called vinasse, which we further process to make liquid organic fertilizer that we use in our sugarcane plantations.

Cogeneration. Sugarcane is composed of water, fibers, sucrose and other sugars and minerals. When the sugarcane goes through the milling process, we separate the water, sugar and minerals from the fibers or sugarcane bagasse. Bagasse is an important sub-product of sugarcane, and it is used as fuel for the boilers in our mills. Sugarcane bagasse is burned in our state-of-the-art boilers to produce high pressure steam (67 atm) which is used in our high-efficiency turbo-generators to generate electricity to power our mills. The excess electricity, about 66% of production, is sold to the national power grid.

The following flow chart demonstrates the sugar, ethanol and cogeneration production process:

Historically, the energy produced by Brazilian mills has not been price competitive when compared to the low-cost Brazilian hydro-electricity, which accounts for almost 90% of the country’s electricity matrix. Consequently, the majority of the groups in the sugar and ethanol sector have not invested in expanding their energy generation for sale, and the majority of the mills were constructed with less efficient, low-pressure boilers. Since 2000, the Brazilian economy has experienced significant growth, which in turn has resulted in increased demand for energy.

However, hydro- and thermo-electricity have not been able to keep pace for the following reasons: (1) new hydro-electric plants are located in regions (such as the Amazon) distant from consumption centers; (2) significant lead-time is required to construct new hydro- and thermo-electric plants; (3) significant investments are required for transmission lines, pipelines (for natural gas used in thermo-electric plants) and barges; (4) significant environmental costs are associated with both types of electricity generation; and (5) prices for fuel (natural gas) used in the generation of thermo-electricity have increased resulting in greater dependence on Bolivia (Brazil’s principal natural gas supplier). As a result, energy prices in Brazil have been increasing, and alternative sources, such as the electricity from the cogeneration of sugarcane bagasse, have become increasingly competitive and viable options to satisfy the increasing energy demands. Sugarcane bagasse cogeneration is particularly competitive since sugarcane-based electricity is generated following the sugarcane harvest and milling which occurs during the dry season in Brazil, when hydroelectric generation is at its lowest levels.

The main advantages of energy generated by sugarcane bagasse are:

| • | It is a clean and renewable energy;

| • | It complements hydropower, the main source of Brazilian energy, as it is generated during the sugarcane harvest period (April to December) when water reservoirs are at their lowest level;

| • | It requires a short period of time to start operations; and

| • | It requires only a small investment in transmission lines when plants are located close to consumer centers.

As of December 2016, our total installed cogeneration capacity at our cluster and UMA mill was 216MW and 16MW respectively, of which 150MW and 12MW are available to sell to the market.

We believe that there is a high potential for growth in the generation of electricity, and we are prepared to make investments to the extent economically viable.

Storage and Conditioning

Our sugar and ethanol storage and conditioning facilities are located at our mill sites and allow us to deliver our products when they are ready to be commercialized with no third-party involvement. Having such facilities at mill sites allows us to (i) reduce storage and conditioning costs; (ii) reduce freight costs since we only commence moving the product once the final destination is determined, whether locally or to a port; and (iii) capitalize on fluctuations in the prices of sugar and ethanol.

Nominal Storage Capacity |  | Cluster |  |  | UMA |  |  | Total |
Ethanol (cubic meters) |  |  | 160,000 |  |  |  | 27,000 |  |  |  | 187,000 |
Sugar (tons) |  |  | 155,000 |  |  |  | 36,400 |  |  |  | 191,400 |

Marketing, Sales and Distribution

Sugar: We sell sugar both in the domestic and the international markets at prices that depend on our price parity calculation, which considers each market’s price and the associated costs. Prices for the sugar we sell in Brazil are set, using an index calculated by the Agriculture College of the University of São Paulo (Escola Superior de Agricultura Luiz de Queiroz, or “ESALQ”), with a premium in the state of Minas Gerais due to the use of our regional brand, “Monte Alegre,” the market leader in the southern part of that state. Prices for the sugar we export are set in accordance with international market prices. International prices for raw sugar are established in accordance with the NY11 futures contracts. Our largest six customers for sugar comprised approximately 95% of our sales in the period ended December 31, 2016.

Ethanol: Almost all of our ethanol sales are in the domestic Brazilian market given the increasing demand generated from the increase in flex-fuel vehicles in Brazil and better ethanol parity at the gas stations. Around 37% of our ethanol sales are made through formal agreements. The remaining volumes are sold through daily sale orders through specialized brokerage firms that act in the ethanol domestic market, whose role is to intermediate the sale of ethanol between the ethanol producers and the domestic ethanol distribution companies, the prices for these transactions are set using the ESALQ and the futures and commodity exchange of the BM&FBOVESPA indices for ethanol as a reference. Our largest eight customers by volume comprised approximately 74% of our sales in the period ended December 31, 2016.

Cogeneration: We also sell electricity co-generated at our sugar and ethanol mills to local electricity commercialization companies and directly to the spot market. Sales are made in the spot market with brokers, through government auctions, to distributors and through long-term contracts. Our largest four customers comprised 72% of our sales revenues in the period ended December 31, 2016.

The Brazilian energy agency, ANEEL, has organized yearly auctions for alternative energy and for renewable sources at favored rates. As a hedging strategy, we sell the electricity production of our mills through long-term contracts adjusted for inflation by reference to the National Index of Consumer Prices (“IPCA”).

In 2009, UMA entered into a 10-year agreement with CEMIG for the sale of approximately 46,200 MWh during the harvest periods each year (May to November of each year) at a rate of R$ 233.93 per megawatt hour in 2015. In 2009, Angélica sold energy in a public auction carried out by Camara de Comercialização de Energia Elétrica (“CCEE”), Angélica entered into a 15-year agreement with CCEE for the sale of 87,600 MWh per year at a rate of R$232.10 per MWh (price for year 2015). In August 2010, Angélica participated in a public auction, whereupon Angélica entered into a second 15-year agreement with CCEE starting in 2011, for the sale of 131,400 MWh per year at a rate of R$206.30 per MWh (price for year 2015). The delivery period for the first auction is May to December and for the second the delivery period starts in April and ends in November of each year. The rates under both agreements are adjusted annually for inflation by reference to the IPCA. In August 2013, Ivinhema sold 87,600 MWh in an auction carried out by CCEE at R$146.08 per MWh. This volume will start to be delivered in 2018 and its price is adjusted annually by IPCA.

Land Transformation

Land transformation is an important element of our business model and a driver of value creation. Through land transformation, we optimize land use and increase the productive potential and value of our farmland. Our land transformation model consists of changing the use of underutilized or undermanaged agricultural land to more profitable cash generating agricultural activities, such as turning low cash-yielding cattle pasture land into high cash-yielding croppable land, allowing profitable agricultural activities, such as crop, rice and sugarcane production.

Since our inception, we have successfully identified multiple opportunities for the acquisition of undeveloped or undermanaged farmland with high potential for transformation. During the fourteen-year period since our inception, we have effectively put into production over 169,317 hectares that were previously undeveloped or inefficiently managed and are undergoing the transformation process.

The land transformation process begins by determining the productive potential of each plot of land. This will vary according to soil properties, climate, productive risks, and the available technology in each specific region. Before commencing the transformation process, we perform environmental impact studies to evaluate the potential impact on the local ecosystem, with the goal of promoting environmentally responsible agricultural production and ecosystem preservation, thereby supporting sustainable land use. We do not operate in heavily wooded areas or primarily wetland areas.

The transformation process for underdeveloped and undermanaged land requires us to make initial investments during a period of one to up to three years, and the land reaches stable productive capability the third to seventh year following commencement of the land transformation activities.

We are engaged in three different categories of the land transformation process, which are defined by the previous use of the land:

(i) Undeveloped land (savannahs and natural grasslands): This is the most drastic transformation phase since it demands both physical and chemical transformation of the soil. First, the land is mechanically cleared to remove native vegetation. The soil is then mechanically leveled for agricultural operations: in the case of land being transformed for rice production, this process involves heavy land movements and systematization required for irrigation and drainage channels, roads and bridges. In the case of land destined for sugarcane plantations, land movements will also be necessary for the construction of terraces to prevent the excess of water runoff. Certain soils must be chemically treated and corrected by incorporating nutrients such as limestone, gypsum and phosphorous, as is the case of the Brazilian ‘Cerrado’. Soil correction is not required in Argentina or Uruguay due to the natural fertility of the soil. Pesticides and fertilizers are then applied to the soil in preparation for planting. In the case of land destined for crop production (grains and oilseeds), soybean, which is sometimes referred to as a colonizing crop, is usually planted during the first years due to its resistance to pests, weeds and extreme weather and soil conditions. Thereafter, the land will enter into a crop rotation scheme to reduce the incidence of plague and disease and to balance soil nutrients. In the case of rice and sugar cane, which are produced in a monoculture system, there is no colonizing crop or rotation involved. Intensive plague and weed controls and additional soil correction will take place during these first three to five years. Land productivity or yields, measured in tons of soybean or other crops per hectare, will be initially low and will gradually increase year by year. During the first five to seven years, the yields will increase at high and sustained rates. After the seventh year we consider the land developed as yield volatility is reduced and growth is only achievable at marginal rates. Since our inception in 2002, we have put into production 67,892 hectares of undeveloped land into productive croppable land.

(ii) Undermanaged or underutilized farmland (cultivated pastures and poorly managed agriculture): This transformation process is lighter than the one described above since it does not require the initial mechanical clearing of vegetation or land leveling. Only in the case of land being prepared for rice production will leveling be required for efficient flood-irrigation. The transformation of cattle pastures or poor agriculture in the Brazilian ‘Cerrado’ will begin with soil correction and soil tillage in preparation for planting of the first soybean or sugarcane crop. The process will then continue as described in the case above. Land productivity or crop yields will grow at high rates during the first three to five years of the transformation process and will then commence to stabilize and grow at marginal rates, at which point we consider the land developed. Since our inception in 2002 we have put into production 101,425 hectares of undermanaged or underutilized farmland into croppable land.

| 70 |

(iii) Ongoing transformation of croppable land: The application of efficient and sustainable crop production technologies and best practices such as “no-till”, crop rotations, integrated pest and weed management and balanced fertilization, among others, incrementally increases soil quality and land productivity over time, maximizing return on invested capital and increasing the land value of our properties. Our entire farmland portfolio is constantly undergoing this phase of land transformation. During the 2015/2016 harvest year, we operated 131,363 hectares of own developed farmland which were enhanced by the use of best productive practices and technology.

In each of these categories of transformation, the metric the company uses to track the level and analyze the progress of the transformation process is the level and tendency of crop yields and the number of years the land has been under crop production. Consequently, the process of land transformation is evidenced by the results of the activities within our other business segments, primarily our crops, rice and sugarcane segments. Accordingly the costs associated with the transformation process described above are allocated within these other business segments. As a result, there may be variations in our results from one season to the next according to the amount of farmland undergoing transformation and the amount of land sold and our ability to identify and acquire new farmland.

Our land transformation segment seeks not only to profit from crop and rice cultivation, but also from the opportunistic disposition of successfully transformed farmland. We strategically sell farms that have reached productive maturity with marginal potential for further productivity increases (years three to seven after commencing the land transformation process) to realize and monetize the capital gains arising from the land transformation process. Land transformation proceeds are in turn reinvested in the purchase of strategic farmland with potential for transformation and appreciation. The rotation of our land portfolio allows us to allocate capital efficiently. Since 2006 we have had a solid track record of selling farmland and achieving profitable returns. During the last eleven years, we have sold 20 farms, generating capital gains of approximately $205 million.

These capital gains are generated by three main factors:

(i) the acquisition of land at opportunistic prices below the market value or fair value of the land;

(ii) the land transformation and ongoing land transformation process described above enhances the productivity and profitability of land, ultimately increasing the value of the land; and

(iii) general market appreciation of land driven by increase in commodity prices and supply and demand dynamics in the land market. In this regard, during the last 30 years, since 1977, farmland prices in Argentina’s core production region have increased an average of 8.1% per year according to data published by Margenes Agropecuarios. The value of the farms we sold between 2006 and 2015 as well as our overall land portfolio, has been positively impacted by this external factor.

We believe we are one of the most active players in the land business in South America. Since our inception in 2002, we have executed transactions for the purchase and sale of land for over $688 million. Our business development team is responsible for analyzing, selecting, acquiring and selling land. The team has gained extensive expertise in evaluating and acquiring farmland throughout South America, and has a solid understanding of the productivity potential of each region and of the potential for land transformation and appreciation. Since 2002, the team has analyzed over 11 million hectares of farmland with a total value of approximately $16 billion. We have developed a methodology to analyze investment opportunities, taking into account price, transformation potential, productive model, financial projections, and investment requirements, among others. Our analysis also employs advanced information technology, including the use of satellite images, rain and temperature records, soil analyses, and topography and drainage maps. From time to time, we may leverage our favorable position in and knowledge of the land market to engage in opportunistic buying and selling transactions.

Our Farms

Appraisal of Farms. In September 2016, in order to assess the market value of rural properties in Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay, we requested an appraisal by Cushman & Wakefield Argentina S.A., independent real estate valuation firm knowledgeable about the agriculture industry and the local real estate market. As part of these appraisals, the value of each of our properties was determined using the sales comparison approach taking into account current offerings and prices buyers had recently paid for comparable sites, adjusted for the differences between comparable properties and the subject property to arrive at an estimate of the value. The major elements of comparison used to value the properties included the property rights conveyed, the financial terms incorporated into the transaction, the conditions or motivations surrounding the sale, changes in market conditions since the sale, the location of the real estate and the physical characteristics of the property.

The above mentioned valuations assumed good and marketable title to subject properties, which were assumed to be free and clear of all liens and encumbrances. The valuation did not include site measurements and no surveys of the subject properties were undertaken. In addition, the valuations also assumed (a) responsible ownership and competent management of the subject properties; (b) there were no hidden or unapparent conditions of the subject properties, subsoil or structures that render the subject properties more or less valuable; (c) full compliance with all applicable federal, state and local zoning and environmental regulations and laws and (d) all required licenses, certificates of occupancy and other governmental consents were or can be obtained and renewed for any use on which the value opinion contained in the appraisals is based. Unless otherwise stated in the appraisals, the existence of potentially hazardous or toxic materials that may have been used in the construction or maintenance of the improvements or may be located at or about the subject properties was not considered in arriving at the appraisal of value. These materials (such as formaldehyde foam insulation, asbestos insulation and other potentially hazardous materials) may adversely affect the value of the subject properties.

Cushman & Wakefield has informed us their assessment of the market value of our farmland as of September 30, 2016. According to Cushman & Wakefield, the market value of our farmland totaled $936.1 million, out of which $809.8 million correspond to the market value of our farmland in Argentina and Uruguay, and the remaining $126.3 million correspond to the market value of our farmland in Brazil. Net of non-controlling interests in certain Argentine farms, the market value of our farmland totaled $760.2 million. These valuations are only intended to provide an indicative approximation of the market value of our farmland property as of September 30, 2016 based on then current market conditions. This information is subject to change based on many variables and market conditions.

(1) On June 2014, we completed the sale of a 49.0% interest in Global Anceo S.L.U and Global Hisingen S.L.U, two Spanish subsidiaries that owned La Guarida, La Garrucha and Los Guayacanes farms.

(2) On December 2015, we completed the sale of a 49% interest in Global Acamante S.L.U, Global Calidon S.L.U, Global Carelio S.L.U, and Global Mirabilis S.L.U, whose main underlying assets are El Orden and La Carolina

A substantial portion of our assets consists of rural real estate. The agricultural real estate market in Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay is particularly characterized by volatility and illiquidity. As a result, we may experience difficulties in immediately adjusting our portfolio of rural properties in response to any alterations in the economic or business environments. The volatility of the local market could affect our ability to sell and receive the proceeds from such sales, which could give rise to a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. See “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business and Industries—A substantial portion of our assets is farmland that is highly illiquid.”

Land Leasing and Agriculture Partnerships. We enter into operating lease agreements based on criteria regarding the quality and projected profitability of the property, as well as our production and yield objectives in the short or medium term. Generally, we become aware of farms available for lease directly through the owners of farms near our farms and in some cases through regional brokers.

We tend to be more open to leasing farmland for sugarcane production than for our farming businesses, where we own the majority of the land that we farm. We lease land for our sugarcane production primarily because leases in this sector are long term, lasting between one or two sugarcane cycles (with each cycle lasting generally 6 years), which allows us to implement and reap the productivity benefits of our land transformation strategies. Sugarcane lease payments are established in terms of tons of sugarcane per hectare, depending on the productivity of the land in terms of tons per hectare and sucrose content per hectare and also on the distance from the land to the mill. Sugarcane prices are based on the market value of the sugarcane set forth by the regulations of the State of Sao Paulo Sugarcane, Sugar and Alcohol Growers Counsel (Conselho dos Produtores de Cana-de-Açúcar, Açúcar e Álcool do Estado de Sao Paulo, or “Consecana”). Given the strategic location of our mills in the region and the inherent inefficiency of growing crops other than sugarcane in this region, we expect to be able to renew our leases for the sugarcane farmland with minimal issues.

With respect to our farming business, the initial duration of lease agreements is generally one harvest year. Leases of farmland for production of grains include agreements with both fixed and variable lease payments in local currency or U.S. dollars per hectare.

Land Management. We manage our land through an executive committee composed of a country manager, regional manager, farm manager and members of the Technology Adecoagro Group (“TAG”) that meet on a monthly basis. We delegate individual farm management to farm managers, who are responsible for farm operations and receive advisory support from TAG to analyze and determine the most suitable and efficient technologies to be applied. Our executive committee establishes commercial and production rules based on sales, market expectations and risk allocation, and fulfilling production procedures and protocols.

Following an acquisition of property, we make investments in technology in order to improve productivity and to increase its value. Occasionally when we purchase property, a parcel of the property is sub-utilized or the infrastructure may be in need of improvement, including traditional fencing and electrical fencing, irrigation equipment and machinery, among other things.

Property, Plant and Equipment

In addition to our farmland, we also own the following principal industrial facilities:

Customers

We sell manufactured and agricultural products to a large base of customers. The type and class of customers may differ depending on our business segments. For the year ended December 31, 2016 more than 60% of our sales of crops were sold to 13 well-known customers (both multinational or local) with good credit history. Of these customers, our biggest three customers represented almost 24% of our sales and the remaining ten represented approximately 36% of our net sales in the course of that year.

In the Sugar, Ethanol and Energy segment, sales of ethanol were concentrated in 8 customers, which represented 74% of total sales of ethanol for the year ended December 31, 2016. Approximately 95% of our sales of sugar were concentrated in 4 well-known traders for the year ended December 31, 2016. The remaining 10%, which mainly relates to “crystal sugar”, were dispersed among several customers. In 2016, energy sales are 72% concentrated in 4 major customers.

Competition

The farming sector is highly fragmented. Although we are one of South America’s leading producers, due to the atomized nature of the farming sector, our overall market share in some of the industries in which we participate is insubstantial. Our production volume, however, improves our ability to negotiate favorable supply, transportation and delivery logistics with our suppliers, third-party transporters, ports and other facilities, and customers. Although competition in agriculture varies considerably by product and sector, in general, there are a large number of producers, and each one of them controls only a small portion of the total production. Therefore individual producers often have little influence on the market and cause little or no effect on market prices as a result of their individual strategies, explaining why producers are price takers and not price makers. In many cases, the price is established in international market exchanges. As the majority of agricultural products are commodities, which stifles product differentiation, the principal competition factors are cost of production and volume efficiency gains. In addition, agricultural producers face strong foreign competition, and with this competition the factors are often more difficult to identify.

The majority of farming producers in developed countries can rely on specific protectionist policies and subsidies from their governments in order to maintain their position in the market. In general, we have been able to obtain discounts for the acquisition of supplies and excess prices for our production in the farming sector. In this sector, we view SLC Agrícola S.A., BrasilAgro — Companhia Brasileira de Propriedades Agrícolas, Sollus Agrícola, Radar Propriedades Agrícolas, Cresud SACIF y A, MSU S.A. and Los Grobo Agropecuaria, among others, as our competitors. We also compete in Argentina with retailers of agricultural products, including other branded rice products, such as Molinos Río de la Plata S.A., Dos Hermanos S.H., Sagemüller S.A. and Cooperativa Arroceros Villa Elisa Ltda.

| 75 |

The sugar and ethanol industries are highly competitive. In Brazil, we compete with numerous small-and medium-sized sugar and ethanol producers. Despite increased consolidation, the Brazilian sugar and ethanol industries remain highly fragmented, with more than 436 sugar mills. Some of the largest industry players with whom we compete are Cosan Ltd., Grupo São Martinho S.A., Açúcar Guarani S.A., Louis Dreyfus Commodities Brasil S.A., ETH Bioenergia S.A., Bunge, Grupo Zillo Lorenzetti, Grupo Carlos Lyra S.A. and Grupo Irmãos Biaggi. We also face competition from international sugar producers, such as those in the U.S. and the European Union, where local regulators have historically implemented tariffs, agriculture subsidies and/or other governmental incentive programs, of which some remain, to protect local sugar producers from foreign competition. The following table describes the Brazilian competitive landscape:

|  | Brazil |
Number of Mills |  |  | 389 |
Sugarcane crushed (million tons) |  |  | 641.2 |
Ethanol Production (million cubic meters) |  |  | 27.4 |
Sugar Production (million tons) |  |  | 36.5 |

With respect to farmland, there have historically been few companies competing to acquire and lease farmland for the purpose of benefiting from land appreciation and optimization of yields in different commercial activities. However, we believe that new companies, may become active players in the acquisition of farmland and the leasing of sown land, which would add competitors to the market in coming years.

Supplies and Suppliers

Our principal supplies for our farming business are seeds, fertilizers, pesticides and fuel, which represented for the year ended December 31, 2016, 14%, 13%, 22% and 11%, respectively, of our total direct expenditures (including leasing costs).Further, these supplies represented 50% of our total production costs for 2016. As we use direct sowing in 99% of our planted area, without requiring soil preparation, fuel represents only 9% of the total cost of production for 2016.

Our principal supplies for our sugar, ethanol and energy business are diesel, lubricants and fertilizers, which collectively represented 19% of our total expenditures incurred in the sugar, ethanol and energy business for 2016. Further, these supplies represented 31% of our total production cost for 2016. We have an extensive network of suppliers for each of our business segments and for each required input within each segment, resulting in lower reliance on any particular supplier. Our ten largest suppliers account for 31% of our total expenditures for supplies in 2016. While we value the relationships we have developed with each of our suppliers given the quality we have come to expect, we do not consider any single supplier to be key to our production.

We have been able to obtain lower prices particularly due to the volume that derives from our large-scale operations.

Seasonality

Our business activities are inherently seasonal. We generally harvest and sell our grains (corn, soybean, rice and sunflower) between February and August, with the exception of wheat, which is harvested from December to January. Cotton is a unique in that while it is typically harvested from June to August, it requires processing which takes about two to three months to complete. Sales in our dairy business segment tend to be more stable. However, milk production is generally higher during the fourth quarter, when the weather is more suitable for production. Although our cluster is currently operating under a “non-stop” or “continuous” harvest and without stopping during traditional off-season, the rest of the sector in Brazil is still primarily operating with large off-season periods from December/January to March/April. The result of large off-season periods is fluctuations in our sugar and ethanol sales and in our inventories, usually peaking in December to take advantage of higher prices during the traditional off-season period (i.e., January through April). As a result of the above factors, there may be significant variations in our financial results from one quarter to another. In addition our quarterly results may vary as a result of the effects of fluctuations in commodities prices, production yields and costs on the determination of changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce. See “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—A. Operating Results—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates—Biological Assets and Agricultural Produce.”

Sustainability

Our production model is based on sustainability standards that seek to produce food and renewable energy on a long-term basis by preserving the natural resources involved in the production process. The sustainable approach to farming requires taking into account economic, social and environmental factors adapted to local circumstances. Natural resources are the main foundation of our activities, with land being the most relevant natural resource in our operations. We have developed a sustainable land use strategy that considers factors beyond the requirements of local law and regulations. There are ecosystems that we do not consider appropriate for the use of agricultural development, such as heavy forests and key wetlands, and there are others that we evaluate using (savannahs, natural grasses, bush land, lowlands) only after carrying out an environmental impact assessment. In addition to such evaluations, we analyze the agricultural potential of the land in respect of the soil, the climate, crop productivity and available technology, among other factors. We then consolidate our analysis into a land transformation plan, which includes the best land use option and implements best practices such as the “no-till” technology, crop rotations, integrated pest and weed management, balanced fertilization, responsible pesticide usage and water management. All these best practices aim to increase resource efficiency and to decrease the risk of contamination and waste production and are consolidated into an environmental management plan, which includes biodiversity management when applicable. We aim to properly implement our sustainable production model to enhance land productivity and therefore increase land value.

Standardized and Scalable Agribusiness Model

We are developing an agribusiness model that allows us to engage in large-scale farming activities in an efficient and sustainable manner. Our agribusiness model consists of developing a specialized workforce and defining standard protocols to track crop development and control production variables, thereby enhancing efficient decision making and facilitating continuous improvement. This approach allows us to grow in scale and execute our expansion plan and efficiently manage various production units spread across different regions by effectively replicating our productive model. Process standardization also helps us assure compliance with local law and regulations and reduce social and environmental risks.

We continue to develop and implement crop protocols. The purpose of these protocols is to coordinate and consolidate the knowledge on crop management for each area in order to standardize the implementation of these protocols. The protocols contain all the technical information for managing crops. This information is constantly reviewed by agricultural teams and their advisors, making it possible to preserve the technical knowledge of the company and at the same time improve agricultural production and make decisions pursuant to the company’s guidelines. Based on the results of the application of these protocols, we conduct an annual review of the techniques used and their results. This evaluation is done by means of crop campaign analysis, in which all teams review and discuss the last harvest year’s productive performance and the technological package for the new harvest year.

When processes and protocols are defined they can be audited and certified by qualified third parties. Adecoagro is currently in the process of certifying its crop production in Argentina under ISO 9001. We are also working to implement ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 in some operating units.

In order to achieve efficient scales of production, we have redesigned our field sizes by removing useless cattle infrastructure such as fencing. Larger fields reduce the overlapping of farmworks, enhancing operating efficiency, reducing the use of inputs and achieving agronomic timing (planting or harvesting on time). The goal is to reduce operative time and to improve efficiency in the use of inputs. Large-scale production also requires the implementation of advanced technology such as GPS (Global Positioning System), GIS (Geographic Information System) and modern machinery as well.

| 77 |

We are also adopting Operational Protocols and Procedures in our industrial facilities to improve control of processing variables. In the case of our rice mills, we have certified Good Manufacturing Practices, and in some cases, HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) standard.

When market conditions provide pricepremiums for certified grains or oilseeds, we evaluate the feasibility of implementing specific certifications. Some examples of this are RTRS (Round Table on Responsible Soybeans) and EPA (Environmental Protection Agency, US) certifications for Sustainable Soybeans in Argentina. In Brazil, we are certifying sugar-based products for EPA and Bonsucro certifications.

Contractors

Contractors play a significant role in our farming business model. We seek to outsource most of the typical farmwork, such as planting, spraying and harvesting. Outsourcing allows us to reduce our investments in heavy machinery and equipments such as tractors or harvesters, enhancing the efficient allocation of our capital in our core productive activities.

The contractor model in the Argentine humid pampas region has existed for over fifty years and has developed into a highly competitive market. Contractors have gained extensive expertise and skill in the management of agricultural machinery and have access to modern advanced technology. We seek to develop win-win relationships with our contractors by considering them as part of our production team and providing constant technical training and support through our GTA (as defined below) activities. We strive to have a number of contractors associated with each farm to generate competition and allow benchmarking to enhance operational efficiency and ensure high-quality service.

In regions where this model is not fully developed, we use a mixed system where we hire the most experienced contractors in the region and we also operate our own machinery. We promote the development of new contractors by providing training and selling them our used machinery. We also promote the movement of selected contractors from developed regions into new marginal regions by offering them an opportunity to grow their businesses. In other regions where there is no established contractor system or there is specific farmwork (rice land leveling for instance), we own majority of the machinery. In our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy business, we own or lease and operate all the agricultural equipment and machinery needed for sugarcane planting and harvesting operations. Our main goal is to achieve high-quality farmworks, both when selecting any contractor and when using our own machinery. In Brazil we partially employ the contractor model only for specific tasks such as grain harvesting, land leveling, and aerial spraying among others.

Adecoagro Technical Group (Grupo Tecnico Adecoagro “GTA”)

The GTA is an internal group formed by agronomists, farm managers, external advisors, contractors, trainees and suppliers, whose main goal is to excel in production management by providing constant technical education and analysis regarding production technologies. Although the GTA is focused on developing such knowledge under common criteria for the whole company, it also considers different production systems, such as crops, rice and dairy in Argentina and Uruguay, crops in western Bahia, Brazil and sugarcane in Minas Gerais and Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. In order to achieve their goals, the group meets every 20 days to analyze and discuss technical aspects of the farming production processes.

The GTA participates in the design of the most efficient and productive land use strategies, the definition of the optimal crop production mix for each farm and region, and supervises and evaluates the implementation of the most profitable and sustainable technologies to be adapted and applied in each region. Additionally, the GTA promotes specific external training courses, facilitates participation in external technical groups, organizes technical farm tours, offers support in establishing the crop planting plan and delivers a full-season analysis for each crop annually. This analysis is essential in order to allow technical improvements to be implemented for the following crop season.

Since the GTA is involved in different regions, it plays a relevant role in spreading best practices among productive regions, including “no-till” in lesser-developed areas. In order to evaluate and adapt the proper technologies locally, a vast network of test plots in agrochemicals, seeds, and farm-works are being carried out under specific technical guidelines. Such development is performed to make the necessary technological adjustments in respect of fertilizer levels, choice of the best product varieties for each crop, determination of the best planting periods and improvement in crop management and agricultural mechanization, resulting in higher yields coupled with reduced costs.

| 78 |

In order to continually improve our technical development, we participate in specialized industry groups, such as CREA and AAPRESID, with which we share values and goals. “CREA” is a 50-year-old farmers’ association focused on developing and supporting technical excellence with local farmers. “AAPRESID” is a technical association of highly innovative farmers specializing in no-till development. We participate in certain CREA and AAPRESID discussion groups in which we share and evaluate common technical matters. We take advantage of their vast network of test plots and we constantly exchange technological knowledge for implementation in our farms.

In addition, the GTA is focusing its resources on pursuing improvements trough implementing advanced techniques such as variable inputs usage by type of soil based on precision agriculture technology, intensification techniques relating to soil occupation times and diversified crop rotations, adjusting “no-till” in rice production, developing sugarcane production technologies involving agricultural mechanization and minimum tillage, and developing cotton production technologies involving “no-till” and crop rotation among others.

By implementing all these education programs and development activities, the GTA provides to the company a network that focuses on the fine-tuning and optimization of the efficiencies throughout all the production processes of each business line.

Technology and Best Practices

We have consistently used innovative production techniques to ensure that we are at the forefront of technological improvements and standards in our industry. For example, we use the “no-till” technology and “crop rotation” to improve our crop yields. We also practice the use of “second harvests” or double cropping where conditions permit, allowing us to plant and harvest a second crop from the same farmland in the same harvest year. Our crop production model is based on balanced fertilization, integrated pest and weed management and crop intensification. We use the innovative silo bag storage method in our rice and crop businesses allowing us to time the entry of our rice production into the market at optimal price points. Additionally, we believe we were the first company in South America to implement the innovative “free-stall” infrastructure in dairy operations resulting in increased fluid milk production compared to our peers. The free-stall method is a model that provides for better control over production variables by confining dairy cows into large barns. Those barns are equipped with state-of-the-art technology to enhance cow-comfort conditions, such as sand beds, water-spray cooling system and fans. In addition, installations are equipped with indoor corrals and a mechanical advanced milking system on a rotary platform, allowing us to utilize production efficiencies and thereby increase milk production volumes while maximizing our land use and resulting in significantly higher conversion rates of animal feed into milk.

Our sugarcane harvesting is 98% mechanized, which has significantly improved operating efficiency, therefore reducing operating costs. We have modern facilities in the sugar and ethanol business including advanced sugar and ethanol mills with high-pressure boilers and that achieve one of the highest ratios of energy produced per ton of cane milled, according to the Cane Technology Center Benchmark program. Our Angélica sugar plant was the first continuously operative facility in Brazil, requiring no production stoppages between sugar batches.

No-Till

“No-till” is the cornerstone of our crop production technology and the key to maintaining and even increasing the value and productivity of our land assets. “No-till” — often called zero tillage or direct sowing — is a technology developed more than 30 years ago to grow crops from year to year without disturbing the soil through tillage, and arose as an opposition to conventional tillage.

Conventional farming consists of using plows to turn and till the soil to remove weeds, mix in soil additives such as fertilizers, and prepare the surface for seeding. Soil tillage leads to unfavorable effects such as soil compaction, loss of organic matter, degradation of soil components, death or disruption of microorganisms, evaporation of soil humidity and soil erosion where topsoil is blown or washed away by wind or rain.

| 79 |

“No-till” farming avoids these negative effects by excluding the use of tillage. The “no-till” technology consists of leaving crop plant residues on the surface of the soil after harvesting a crop. These residues form a mulch or permanent cover protecting the soil from erosion risks caused by heavy rains and strong winds. This protective cover also helps natural precipitation and irrigation water infiltrate the soil effectively while decreasing water loss from evaporation. Absence of tillage helps prevent soil compaction, allowing the soil to absorb more water and roots to grow deeper into the soil. Furthermore, “no-till” reduces the emergence of weeds and enhances biological processes that positively impact soil properties, conserving and even improving the presence of organic matter and microorganisms and associated nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorous, etc).

The combination of these advantages results in important cost reductions due to a lower use of inputs, mainly diesel, fertilizers and pesticides, and higher crop yields, thus increasing the profitability of our business. These benefits are achieved in the medium to long term, resulting in a continuous increase of land productivity and thus its value. From an operational standpoint, “no-till” facilitates the conditions to perform most of the operations on time such as planting, spraying and harvesting, which enhances the development of large-scale operations and specially improves the probability of planting each crop at the optimum moment.

Crop Rotation

Crop rotation is the practice of growing a series of dissimilar types of crops in the same area in sequential seasons. Crop rotation allows us to better control the buildup of harmful weeds and reduces the incidence of plagues and diseases that often occur when the same commodity is continuously cropped. Crop rotation also allows us to balance the fertility demands of various crops to avoid the excessive depletion of soil nutrients, contributing to a more efficient use of fertilizers and a sustainable use of herbicides and pesticides. Crop rotation results in increased yields and reduced production costs, providing a high rate of return. Our crop rotation model is tailored to each of our farming regions based on climatic and soil conditions. For example, in Argentina’s Humid Pampas, our three-year crop rotation cycle involves the planting of a wheat crop followed by a soybean double-crop in the first year, a corn crop in the second year, and a soybean crop in the third year. In Brazil, we pursue a crop rotation that includes corn, soybeans and cotton.

Second Harvest — Double Cropping

Second harvest, also known as “double cropping”, is the practice of consecutively producing two crops on the same land within the same growing year. Double cropping is possible only in regions with long growing seasons, which is determined mainly by climate conditions such as rain and temperature. Double cropping allows us to increase the profitability of our land, diversify our production and commercial risk and enhance operational efficiencies through a better utilization of machinery, freight, labor and other resources, resulting in a dilution of our fixed costs. Double cropping has important agronomical advantages as well, such as having crops on the land for a longer period of time, which, enhanced by “no-till” and crop rotation practices results in the improvement of the physical and chemical properties of the soil in the long term. We implement and adapt different double cropping systems for each of our productive regions in Argentina and Uruguay, with the most frequent being wheat/soybean, wheat/corn, sunflower/soybean, corn/soybean and sunflower/corn.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

Integrated pest management (“IPM”) involves a deep analysis of agronomical, economical and environmental aspects with the goal of determining the most efficient way to control the pests. It simultaneously achieves three main goals: (i) enhancing crop productivity, (ii) reducing use of pesticides and (iii) decreasing the risk of agrochemical contamination. The first stage of IPM is to train the people who will be involved in pesticide usage. The pesticide to be applied is selected considering local regulations (only locally approved pesticides are used) and the minimum resulting environmental risks due to its chemical classification. Additionally, when selecting biotechnologically developed crops, we evaluate the potential reduction of pesticide uses that may be achieved. The doses of pesticides are defined by vendor recommendations and adjusted through agronomical expertise (specific to a crop and a pest). The timing of pesticide application is based on economic threshold that takes into account the crop situation (growing stage, climate conditions), the potential damage of the pest (type, population, growing stage), the presence of “beneficial” pests, and finally, the price relationship between grains and pesticides. We also use biological pest controls by breeding and releasing natural enemies of the relevant pest, as is the case with the borer plague in sugarcane. The relevance of the pest is measured by implementing specific scouting methodologies, which are adapted to large-scale farming. Scouting is carried out by trained employees who supervise all the fields on a weekly basis. The pesticide doses are applied by high-tech machinery, the majority of which is outsourced. IPM machinery is accurately calibrated to increase its application efficiency and to reduce any potential contamination risk. Climate conditions are taken into account, as well, in determining the optimal timing for spraying, to avoid drifting, evaporation and leakage risks.

Balanced Fertilization

Balanced fertilization consists of determining an optimum use of fertilizers at the proper grades and in the proper amounts to supply the correct ratio of nutrients and to ensure that the soil will sustain high crop yields over time, consequently decreasing contamination risks. At the beginning of each crop season, we perform extensive soil studies in each of our farms to monitor the amount of organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium levels in each field. Based on this analysis and considering the potential yield for each field, the crop rotation, and relative prices between fertilizers and agricultural products, we determine the optimum amount of fertilizer to be applied in order to maximize the economic response of the crop.

Water management

Since crops need sufficient water to achieve their potential yields, we are engaged in techniques aimed to increase the efficiency of water usage and at the same time decrease soil erosion risks. In that regard, “no-till” presents strong advantages since it improves rainfall infiltration and increases the soil’s water storage capacity. In areas that may be subject to excess water, we are developing terraces, soil leveling and other techniques intended to decrease runoff and erosion risks. In some of the jurisdictions in which we operate, the use of water for irrigation requires obtaining special permits. For certain irrigated crops such as rice, we focus on the design and operation of rainwater harvesting, collecting water from rain in semi-natural reservoirs destined for future irrigation. In addition, we have developed a water recycle system for each farm where excess of water (derived from drainage and rainfalls) can be reused, instead of being drained out of the farm. Channels to conduct the water and drain the fields are developed by experts in order to deliver water in the most efficient manner. We are also developing the zero grade level system in some of our rice farms to increase productivity and reduce production costs. This technique involves a precise leveling of the land based on GPS and Laser technology. When fields are accurately leveled, water irrigation requirements are reduced, thus lowering the cost of labor and energy. Efficient management of irrigation results in a positive impact on yields. Additionally, as the fields can be larger, there are some operational benefits that can be achieved by reducing machinery working times. Other crops such corn seed and, sunflower seed are irrigated by highly efficient pivot spraying systems. This type of irrigation system allows us to distribute water uniformly throughout the field, improving the use of water in terms of total millimeters per year. We conduct soil moisture sampling to define the best moment and amount of water to be used for irrigation in each plot.

Mechanization

We incorporate all available mechanization technology into our business that is cost-effective. We believe that by employing mechanization technology we improve our operating efficiency and are better able to reach desired economies of scale in our operations. Mechanization also enables us to adopt new associated technologies faster and hastens our development efforts. In our farming business, we are using cutting-edge mechanized technology for planting, spraying, harvesting and irrigating and for soil preparation and management. We also employ advanced mechanization technology in our logistics and product processing operations, including transportation, drying operations and grain sorting and storage. We are in the process of developing mechanization technology to benefit our other businesses, such as sugarcane planting, which traditionally have not benefitted from such mechanization.

Synergies

The technologies we employ are very closely linked, and the joint implementation of a number of them will result in positive synergies for our entire production system. For example, implementation of the “no-till” technology can be enhanced by crop rotations, due to the positive biological effects generated by the different types of roots from each crop in the soil. Benefits of integrated pest management are improved when combined with the “no-till” and crop rotation strategies, since the crop stubble that remains on the soil can be a barrier to some plagues, and because some other pests are specific to a particular crop and the crop rotation can be sufficient to control them. We consider these synergies when we develop our crop seeding schedule.

Information Technology

We employ the World Class ERP Oracle eBusiness Suite to standardize and integrate our processes throughout the company and improve controls and information accuracy and consolidation. The Oracle eBusiness Suite allows us to fulfill our local accounting and fiscal needs while facilitating operational coordination across our geographic areas and lines of business, reducing our operational costs and minimizing duplication of administrative efforts. It also provides our management with consolidated results in a timely manner. In addition, our integrated security plan includes an offsite safeguarded system that guarantees business continuity.

Environmental Responsibility

We are developing a production model that reflects a strong commitment to the environment. Our responsibility to the environment begins with complying with local regulations. Natural resources such as land, water and biodiversity are taken into account when we evaluate both the development of a new production project and the operation of an on-going one. In that regard, we are constantly evaluating best practices to be implemented in our operations. See “—Technology and Best Practices.” In order to be better stewards of the environment, we are in the process of developing and implementing environmental management plans for our operations. Those plans involve different stages, which are mainly educating our own and outsourced staff, monitoring ecological parameters, preventing negative effects, and correcting deviations. With respect to pesticide contamination risks, we are implementing a responsible pesticide use program, which includes personnel training, personnel protection elements, application recommendations, pesticide selection criteria, pesticide handling and storage and after-use pesticide packages management (which are specifically cleaned, collected and stored for recycling purposes under third parties’ programs).

Additionally, in some regions where biodiversity matters are relevant, we are implementing biodiversity management plans, which mainly consists of periodically monitoring flora and fauna, detecting significant variations of their populations, and proposing measures to reduce any potential threats to local species. As a result, we are implementing some practices such as prohibiting hunting on our farms in Argentina, developing environmental private protection areas (where natural vegetation is protected by implementing sustainable production practices). As environmental matters require specific expertise and an understanding of complex relationships, we are entering into cooperative arrangements and agreements with educational institutions. We are also developing relationships with well recognized environmental non-governmental organizations, such as The Nature Conservancy.

In Brazil, one of our main environmental focuses is compliance with the applicable provisions of the Brazilian Forestry Code (Código Forestal). Accordingly, we analyze and identify all natural areas inside our own farms and inside leased areas, and make a development plan that defines actions for their preservation. Some examples of these activities are the reforestation of Permanent Preservation Areas (Áreas de Preservación Permanente) and Legal Reserve Areas (Áreas de Reserva Legal), for which we are producing seedlings of more than 70 native species to reforest those areas. We are strongly committed to the preservation of forests, and we only develop areas for farming if they were previously used for agricultural purposes or for pasture. We do not operate in forests, wetlands or areas with high biodiversity value.We concern ourselves with the protection of riverbanks and surrounding areas of streams and springs, as they are important for soil conservation and as refuges for native fauna. In that regard, we are implementing periodic monitoring of wildlife and native flora as well. We have a partnership with The Nature Conservancy (“TNC”), an international environmental non-governmental organization, to organize the environmental preservation of areas of ecological importance by acquiring such areas to replace reserve areas on our own land and land we lease, through a reserve compensation scheme developed by TNC and adopted by the regional environmental authorities. This program will allow us to protect larger blocks of critical ecosystems instead of having smaller reserve areas in each farm, while allowing us to use areas in our farms that were previously developed and would have lesser environmental value as reserve areas.

We are also developing bio-gas production from manure in our free-stall dairy operation in Argentina as another emissions reduction program. This project contemplates the capture of methane gas from adequately managed manure of dairy cows, which will be used to co-generate electricity. We received a grant from Sustainable Energy and Climate Change Initiative from the Inter-American Development Bank (SECCI) in order to carry out the pre-feasibility assessment. We have also received a grant from the “Agencia Nacional de Promoción Científica y Tecnologica”, an agency which promotes technological innovation, to partially fund the investment. In July 2016, we participated of Argentina’s “RenovAr” renewable energy auction and entered into a 20-year contract to supply up to 9,145 MWh per year at an average price of USD 158.92 per MWh. At UMA, we have implemented a pilot plant that produces biogas from vinasse, developed in partnership with Efficiencia, a subsidiary of Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais (“CEMIG”). The technology developed during this project will allow us to generate additional energy from vinasse while maintaining the fertilizer recycling potential of UMA. We are currently evaluating alternatives to replicate this pilot project in our Cluster in Mato Grosso do Sul (Brazil). These emission reduction projects could also generate extra income from carbon credits under specific programs.

Social Programs

Apart from complying with local labor regulations, we seek to promote the personal and professional development of our employees by offering them an adequate working environment with proper health and safety protections. We aim to develop a transparent relationship with local authorities. Finally, one of our main goals is to contribute positively to the social development of the communities in which we operate, creating new jobs, preserving the environment, providing training opportunities through our internship program and assisting with social development. In order to implement our social development programs, we analyze the areas in which we operate and give special attention to education and poverty rates, possible alliances with other social actors, and potential synergies with local government programs. In addition to social development programs, we contribute to community organizations in each area where we operate, such as hospitals, schools, daycare centers and fire stations, among others. We also have a voluntary matching program where Adecoagro matches each donation from our employees at a 2:1 ratio.

Education

Our sugarcane and rice operations have a very important economic impact in the communities where we are located, and we have developed a Social Action Program in the various municipalities. In 2005, we started a partnership with Cimientos in Corrientes, Santa Fe and Entre Rios in Argentina, through which we have awarded 45 educational programs in 133 urban and rural schools located close to our rice operations. These programs benefit 20,860 students. Cimientos is a non-profit organization that promotes equal educational opportunities for children and youth from low-income families in Argentina. In 2016 we started another program together with CONCIENCIA (a local NGO) in which we support our employees’ children to complete their education. This new program began in Salta near to Los Guayacanes, and 16 children participated.

Additionally, we have partnered with Fundação Bradesco in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, working with the local municipalities of Angélica and Ivinhema to re-train teachers at their schools, aiming to improve the performance of public schools to a level of regional excellence. We also have partnerships to encourage the habit of reading through the training of teachers of municipal schools as storytellers and investment in libraries.

Nutrition

In Argentina, we work in partnership with Conin Foundation, which fights malnourishment in children, focusing its actions in three main aspects: education, assistance and research. In 2016, we donated nearly 6 tons of powdered milk and 1 ton of processed rice. We also work in partnership with the Argentine Food Bank Network, to whom we are currently donating approximately 15 tons of processed rice. This network operates in 17 cities and is a nonprofit distribution enterprise that serves the community by acquiring donated food and making it available to people who are hungry through a network of community agencies. These agencies include school feeding programs, food pantries, soup kitchens, hospices, substance abuse clinics, after-school programs and other nonprofit organizations. Additionally, we have been contributing food to Solidagro, an alliance between rural corporate institutions and civic organizations that seek to solve famine and malnutrition problems, since 2007. We are also collaborating with selected soup kitchen initiatives such as Caritas Christophersen, San Gregorio Foundation and Mercedes City Soup Kitchen.

Additionally, in 2016 we agreed on a new campaign together with a basketball club in the province of Corrientes, Argentina. The campaign was called “Festejá cada punto vale triple” (Celebrate, each point is worth triple). With this campaign for each point the basketball team scores during this season, Adecoagro will donate 3 kilos of rice to the Conin Foundation centers located within the province of Corrientes. In December 2016, we provided 4.6 tons of rice to these centers.

| 83 |

In Brazil, we support several local schools, kindergartens, homes for the elderly and APAEs (local associations to support seriously deficient in the community) with financial investment and training to improve social management. Because of these initiatives, ABRINQ Foundation as Child Friendly Company certified the Monte Alegre unit.

Internship Program

The purpose of our internship program is to promote the development of highly qualified professionals for the community by providing first-time work experience, good quality training and access to highly technology-oriented operations. We seek to facilitate interns’ future access to the job market while detecting potential key employees. The interns actively participate in the TAG training program, which includes monthly technical meetings, external training and farm tours. In order to accomplish these goals we promote institutional relationships with local and international universities and high schools. Over 310 interns have participated in our program during the last 14 years, of which 82 were subsequently incorporated into our teams.

Material Agreements

For a description of the material agreements relating to our indebtedness, please see “Item 5.—Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—B. Liquidity and Capital Resources—Indebtedness and Financial Instruments.”

Intellectual Property

As of March 22, 2017, our corporate group owned 24 trademarks registered with the Argentine National Intellectual Property Institute and had 3 trademarks in the process of registration. Also, Adeco Brasil and UMA owned 16 trademarks registered with the Brazilian National Industrial Property Institute (“INPI”), and had submitted 5 trademark registration requests, all of which are currently being challenged by third parties or were initially denied by INPI.

In Argentina, we are required to renew our trademark registrations when they expire at the end of their respective terms. Under the Argentine Trade and Service Marks Law No. 22,362, the term of duration of a registered trademark is 10 years from its issue date, and a trademark may be indefinitely renewed for equal periods thereafter if, within the five-year period prior to each expiration, the trademark was used in the marketing of a product, in the rendering of a service or as the designation of an activity.

In Brazil, title to a trademark is acquired only once its valid registration has been issued by the INPI. During the registration process, the person requesting the trademark merely has an expectation of the right to use the trademark to identify its products or services. Under Law No. 9,279, of May 14, 1996 (the Brazilian Industrial Property Law), the holder of a trademark has the right to its exclusive use throughout Brazil. The term of duration of a registered trademark is 10 years from its issue date, and a trademark may be indefinitely renewed for equal periods thereafter. Within a five-year period from the issue date, the owner has an obligation to use the trademark in the marketing of a product, in the rendering of a service or as the designation of an activity. If the owner does not use the trademark within such five-year period, it may be subject to a forfeiture process, upon request of any third party with legitimate interest in the trademark. The same forfeiture process may occur if the owner fails to use the trademark for any five-year period, continuously. If the trademark is declared forfeited, the trademark rights are terminated.

Insurance

The type and level of insurance coverage we obtain is determined based on consultation with leading insurance brokers. We carry policies with leading U.S., European, and local insurance companies, and we are currently insured against a variety of risks, including losses and damages relating to our plants, equipment and buildings. We believe our level of insurance coverage is customary and appropriate for a company of our size and with respect to our activities. Our insurance currently covers only part of the losses we may incur and does not cover losses on crops due to hail storms, fires or similar risks.

| 84 |

Legal and Administrative Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to certain contingent liabilities with respect to existing or potential claims, lawsuits and other proceedings, including those involving tax, social security, labor lawsuits and other matters. We accrue liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and such costs can be reasonably estimated. See “Item 8. Financial Information—A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information—Legal and Administrative Proceedings.”

Environmental Regulations and Compliance

Our businesses in the various emerging market countries in which we operate are subject to comprehensive national, state and municipal laws and regulations relating to the preservation and protection of the environment to which those businesses must adhere. These laws and regulations require some of our businesses to obtain permits or licenses that have to be renewed periodically in order to allow us to continue to operate. If such permits or licenses lapse or are not renewed or if we fail to obtain any required environmental licenses and permits, or if we do not comply with any other requirements or obligations established under the applicable environmental laws and regulations, we may be subject to fines or criminal sanctions and might face partial or total suspension of our operations and suspension or cancellation of our environmental licenses and permits. In addition, our businesses which hold debt from banks, and multilateral lenders in particular, are typically required to adhere to environmental standards that exceed those of the country in which the business operates (e.g., World Bank standards).

We are currently either in compliance with or are in the process of applying for permits that would put us in compliance with all applicable environmental laws and material environmental licenses and permits. On June 10, 2014, we applied for the renewal of the operational license for the Angélica mill to mill up to 4 million tons of sugarcane per year. On April 24, 2015, we obtained an installation license (licença de instalação) for the Ivinhema mill, to mill up to 5 million tons of sugarcane per year. On July 23, 2015, we obtained the operational license (licença de operação) from IMASUL authorizing us to mill up to 5 million tons of sugarcane per year. In July 6, 2016, we applied for an update of the operational license for the Ivinhema mill to mill up to 6.2 million tons. In addition to the installation and operational license, the Ivinhema mill must obtain other permits including licenses for water capture and use of controlled products, among others. Failure to obtain the necessary environmental licenses may prevent us from operating the Ivinhema mill or may subject us to sanctions.

Our operating businesses have the required environmental monitoring, equipment and procedures, and we utilize third-party contractors to conduct regular environmental audits. Our environmental expenses relate to consultants we use to perform environmental impact studies for our development projects and control and monitoring procedures. However, as environmental regulations are expected to become more stringent in some of the countries where we operate, our environmental compliance costs are likely to increase due to the cost of compliance with any future environmental regulations. While we are not aware of any material environmental liabilities related to our ongoing operations, we may be subject to cleanup costs, which we do not expect to be material.

Regulation and Control of Agri-Food Production in Argentina

The National Office of Agricultural Commerce Control (Oficina Nacional de Control Comercial Agropecuario, or “ONCCA” for its acronym in Spanish) created on November 27, 1996, as a decentralized entity of the Ministry of Agriculture was the agency responsible for controlling the commercialization and manufacturing of agricultural livestock, meat and dairy products in Argentina.

In February 25th, 2011 the ONCCA was dissolved pursuant to Decree No. 192/2011 and the faculties previously held by the ONCCA were transferred to the former Ministry of Agriculture (now Ministry of Agroindustry).

Decree No. 32/2016, (modified by Decree 1145/16) changed the organigram for the Ministry of Agriculture and also determined its powers and competences. Pursuant to the aforesaid decree, the Sub-Secretariat of Commercial Agriculture Control was created within the Ministry of Agroindustry with the purpose of regulating the registry, matriculation, and control of all activities related to the commercialization and industrialization of agri-food and agroindustry chains.

| 85 |

Under applicable regulations, all persons involved in the commercialization and manufacturing of grains and dairy products must be registered with the Sole Registry of the Agro-Industrial Chain (Registro Único de Operadores de la Cadena Agroindustrial or “RUCA” for its acronym in Spanish), which provides for registration of any individual or company involved in the trade and industrialization of agri-food products in the markets for grains, livestock and dairy products and their by-products and/or derivatives. This registration must be renewed each year. Grain producers must stock grains at facilities and must keep a record of the grain stock stored at such facilities. Failure to register with the RUCA, or cancellation of such registration, will lead to sanctions, including monetary fines, the termination of operating activities and closure of facilities and/or deregistration for up to 5 years.

On April 1, 2014 the AFIP issued Resolution No. 3,593/14 which established a “Systematic Regristration of Movements and Grains Stocks Regime” (Régimen de Registración Sistemática de Movimientos y Existencias de Granos) by which all persons involved in the commercialization and manufacturing of grains and dairy products registered with the RUCA must report the stock and stock variations (including locations, transport between the producer´s facilities, etc.) of all grains and other agricultural products (other than those to be applied to sowing) held in their own or other third party´s name.

In the event of a violation of any of the applicable regulations, sanctions may be imposed, including fines and suspension or cancellation of the registration, which would result in the immediate cessation of activities and closure of facilities.

Overview

We are engaged in agricultural, manufacturing and land transformation activities. Our agricultural activities consist of harvesting certain agricultural products, including crops (soybeans, corn, wheat, etc.), rough rice, and sugarcane, for sale to third parties and for internal use as inputs in our various manufacturing processes, and producing fluid milk. Our manufacturing activities consist of (i) selling manufactured products, including processed rice, sugar, ethanol and energy, among others, and (ii) providing services, such as grain warehousing and conditioning and handling and drying services, among others. Our land transformation activities consist of the acquisition of farmlands or businesses with underdeveloped or underutilized agricultural land and implementing production technology and agricultural best practices to enhance yields and increase the value of the land. Please see also "Risk Factors-Risks Related to Argentina- Argentine law concerning foreign ownership of rural properties may adversely affect our results of operations and future investments in rural properties in Argentina" and "Risk Factors-Risks Related to Brazil- Recent changes in Brazilian rules concerning foreign investment in rural properties may adversely affect our investments."

| 86 |

We are organized into three main lines of business: farming; land transformation; and sugar, ethanol and energy. These lines of business consist of six reportable operating segments, which are evaluated by the chief operating decision-maker based upon their economic characteristics, the nature of the products they offer, their production processes and their type and class of customers and distribution methods. Our farming business is comprised of four reportable operating segments: Crops, Rice, Dairy, and All Other Segments. Each of our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy and Land Transformation lines of business is also a reportable operating segment. Please see – Operating Segments” for a discussion of our six operating reportable segments.

There are significant economic differences between our agricultural and manufacturing activities. Some of our agricultural activities generally do not involve further manufacturing processes, including those within the crops, dairy and All Other Segments. Our other agricultural activities in the rice and sugar, ethanol and energy segments generally involve further manufacturing processes, comprising our manufacturing activities. The table below sets forth our agricultural and manufacturing activities by segment.

Segment |  | Agricultural Product |  | Manufactured Product and Services Rendered
Crops |  | Soybean Corn Wheat Sunflower Cotton |  | Grain drying and conditioning
Rice |  | Rough rice |  | White rice and brown rice
Dairy |  | Fluid milk |  | Processed milk, and dairy products
Sugar, Ethanol and Energy |  | Sugarcane |  | Sugar, Ethanol and Energy

Manufacturing Activities

The gross profit of our manufacturing activities is a function of our sales of manufactured products and services rendered and the related costs of manufacturing those products or delivering those services. We recognize an amount of revenue representing the actual dollar amount collected or to be collected from our customers. Our principal costs consist of raw materials, labor and social security expenses, maintenance and repairs, depreciation, lubricants and other fuels, among others. We obtain our raw materials principally from our own agricultural activities and, to a lesser extent, from third parties.

Agricultural Activities

Our agricultural activities involve the management of the biological transformation of biological assets into agricultural produce for sale to third parties, or into agricultural products that we use in our manufacturing activities. We measure our biological assets and agricultural produce in accordance with lAS 41 "Agriculture." lAS 41 requires biological assets to be measured on initial recognition and at each balance sheet date at their fair value less cost to sell, with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of income as they occur. As market prices are generally not available for biological assets while they are growing, we use the present value of expected net cash flows as a valuation technique to determine fair value, as further discussed below in "-Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates." ln addition, agricultural produce at the point of harvest is measured at fair value less cost to sell, which is generally determined by reference to the quoted market price in the relevant market. Consequently, the gains and losses arising on initial recognition and changes in fair value of our biological assets and the initial recognition of our agricultural produce at the point of harvest are accounted for in the statement of income in the line item "lnitial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce."

After agricultural produce is harvested, we may hold it in inventory at net realizable value up to the point of sale, which includes market selling price less direct selling expenses, with changes in net realizable value recognized in the statement of income when they occur. When we sell our inventory, we sell at the prevailing market price and we incur direct selling expenses.

| 87 |

We generally recognize the agricultural produce held in inventory at net realizable value with changes recognized in the statement of income as they occur. Therefore, changes in net realizable value represent the difference in value from the last measurement through the date of sale on an aggregated basis.

We consider gains and losses recorded in the line items of the statement of income "lnitial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce" and "Changes in net realizable value of agricultural produce after harvest" to be realized only when the related produce or manufactured product is sold to third parties and, therefore, converted into cash or other financial assets. Therefore, "realized" gains or losses mean that the related produce or product has been sold and the proceeds are included in revenues for the year. Please see “ –Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates – Biological Assets and Agricultural Produce” for a discussion of the accounting treatment, financial statement, presentation and disclosure related to our agricultural activities.

Land Transformation

The Land Transformation segment includes two types of operations. The first relates to the acquisition of farmlands or businesses with underdeveloped or underutilized agricultural land (land which we have identified as capable of being transformed into more productive farmland by enhancing yields and increasing its future value). When we acquire a farmland business for an acquisition price below its estimated fair value, we recognize an immediate gain (a "purchase bargain gain"). The land acquired is recognized at its fair value at the acquisition date and is subsequently carried at cost under the cost model in IAS 16.

The second type of operation undertaken within this segment relates to the realization of value through the strategic disposition of assets (i.e. farmland) that may have reached full development potential. Once we believe certain land has reached full growth potential, we may decide to realize such incremental value through the disposition of the land.

The results of these two activities (purchase bargain gains as a result of opportunistic acquisitions of businesses with underdeveloped or underutilized land below fair market value, and gains on dispositions reflecting the ultimate realization of cash value on dispositions of transformed farmlands) are included separately in the Land Transformation segment.

Land transformation activities themselves are not reflected in this segment; rather, they are reflected in all of our other agricultural activities in other segments. The results of our land transformation strategy are realized as a separate activity upon disposition of transformed farmlands and other rural properties.

A. OPERATING RESULTS

Adoption of the amendments of IAS 14 and IAS 16

IASB amended IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment” and IAS 41 “Agriculture,” which distinguish bearer plants from other biological assets. Bearer plants are used solely to grow produce over their productive lives and are considered to bear more resemblance to machinery and equipment (IAS 16) than other biological assets (under IAS 41). Accordingly, they are now accounted for under IAS 16. However, the agricultural produce growing on bearer plants remains within the scope of IAS 41 and is measured at fair value less cost to sell. The amendments were applicable for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

Our sugarcane and coffee plantations qualify as bearer plants under the new definition in IAS 41. As required under IAS 8, “Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors”, we effected the change in accounting policy retrospectively. Consequently, effective January 1, 2016, our sugarcane and coffee plantations were reclassified to property, plant and equipment, measured at amortized cost and depreciated over their useful life on a straight-line basis. We adopted the transitional rule provided for in the amendment, which allowed us to apply the fair value of bearer plants as their deemed cost as of January 1, 2014. Accordingly, we revised the comparative amounts financial data for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. Financial data for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 have not been revised, and is not comparable to financial data for the years 2016, 2015 and 2014.

| 88 |

For further information, and an analysis of the impact of the adoption of IAS 41 and IAS 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements please see Note 32.1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Trends and Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

Our results of operations have been influenced and will continue to be influenced by the following factors:

(i) Effects of Yield Fluctuations

The occurrence of severe adverse weather conditions, especially droughts, hail, floods or frost, are unpredictable and may have a potentially devastating impact on agricultural production and may otherwise adversely affect the supply and prices of the agricultural commodities that we sell and use in our business. The effects of severe adverse weather conditions may also reduce yields at our farms. Yields may also be affected by plague, disease or weed infection and operational problems.

The following table sets forth our average crop, rice and sugarcane yields, expressed in tons per hectare, for the periods indicated:

|  | 2015/2016 |  |  | 2014/2015 |  |  | 2013/2014 |  |  | % Change |
|  | Harvest |  |  | Harvest |  |  | Harvest |  |  | 2015/2016 - |  |  | 2014/2015 - |
|  | Year (1) |  |  | Year (1) |  |  | Year (1) |  |  | 2014/2015 |  |  | 2013/2014 |
Corn (2) |  |  | 5.8 |  |  |  | 5.9 |  |  |  | 6.2 |  |  |  | (1.7 | %) |  |  | (4.8 | %)
Soybean |  |  | 2.8 |  |  |  | 3.2 |  |  |  | 2.9 |  |  |  | (12.5 | %) |  |  | 10.3 | %
Soybean (second harvest) |  |  | 2.4 |  |  |  | 2.5 |  |  |  | 1.9 |  |  |  | (4.0 | %) |  |  | 31.6 | %
Cotton lint |  |  | - |  |  |  | 0.7 |  |  |  | 1.0 |  |  |  | N/A |  |  |  | (30.0 | %)
Wheat (3) |  |  | 2.5 |  |  |  | 2.3 |  |  |  | 2.6 |  |  |  | 8.7 | % |  |  | (11.5 | %)
Sunflower |  |  | 1.6 |  |  |  | 1.8 |  |  |  | 1.8 |  |  |  | (11.1 | %) |  |  | 0.0 | %
Rice |  |  | 5.9 |  |  |  | 5.1 |  |  |  | 5.6 |  |  |  | 15.7 | % |  |  | (8.9 | %)
Sugarcane (4) |  |  | 98.2 |  |  |  | 93.0 |  |  |  | 80.8 |  |  |  | 5.6 | % |  |  | 15.1 | %

(1) This column reflects the full harvest season.

(2) Includes sorghum and peanut.

(3) Includes barley.

(4) Does not consider harvested area for planting activities.

(ii) Effects of Fluctuations in Production Costs

We experience fluctuations in our production costs due to the fluctuation in the costs of (i) fertilizers, (ii) agrochemicals, (iii) seeds, (iv) fuel and (v) farm leases. The use of advanced technology, however, allows us to increase our efficiency, in large part mitigating the fluctuations in production costs. Some examples of how the implementation of production technology has allowed us to increase our efficiency and reduce our costs include the use of no-till technology (also known as “direct sowing”, which involves farming without the use of tillage, leaving plant residues on the soil to form a protective cover which positively impacts costs, yields and the soil), crop rotation, second harvest in one year, integrated pest management, and balanced fertilization techniques to increase the productive efficiency in our farmland. Increased mechanization of harvesting and planting operations in our sugarcane plantations and utilization of modern, high pressure boilers in our sugar and ethanol mills has also yielded higher rates of energy production per ton of sugarcane milled.

| 89 |

(iii) Effects of Fluctuations in Commodities Prices

Commodity prices have historically experienced substantial fluctuations. For example, based on Chicago Board of Trade (“CBOT”) data, from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016, soybean prices increased 14.4% and corn prices decreased by 1.9%. Also, between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2016, ethanol prices increased by 8.2% according to Escola Superior de Agricultura “Luiz de Queiroz” (“ESLAQ”) data, and sugar prices increased by 28.0%, according to Intercontinental Exchange of New York (“ICE-NY”) data. Commodity price fluctuations impact our statement of income as follows:

| • | Initial recognition and changes in the fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce in respect of not harvested biological assets undergoing biological transformation;

| • | Changes in net realizable value of agricultural produce for inventory carried at its net realizable value; and

| • | Sales of manufactured products and sales of agricultural produce and biological assets sold to third parties.

| 90 |

The following graphs show the spot market price of some of our products for the periods indicated:

(iv) Fiscal Year and Harvest Year

Our fiscal year begins on January 1 and ends on December 31 of each year. However, our production is based on the harvest year for each of our crops and rice. A harvest year varies according to the crop or rice plant and to the climate in which it is grown. Due to the geographic diversity of our farms, the planting period for a given crop or rice may start earlier on one farm than on another, causing differences for their respective harvesting periods. The presentation of production volume (tons) and production area (hectares) in this annual report in respect of the harvest years for each of our crops and rice starts with the first day of the planting period at the first farm to start planting in that harvest year to the last day of the harvesting period of the crop or rice planting on the last farm to finish harvesting that harvest year.

On the other hand, production volumes for dairy and production volume and production area for sugar, ethanol and energy business are presented on a fiscal year basis.

The financial results in respect of all of our products are presented on a fiscal year basis. See ̶ “Year ended December 31, 2016 as compared to year ended December 31, 2015”. ̶

(v) Effects of Fluctuations of the Production Area

Our results of operations also depend on the size of the production area. The size of our own and leased area devoted to crop, rice and sugarcane production fluctuates from period to period in connection with the purchase and development of new farmland, the sale of developed farmland, the lease of new farmland and the termination of existing farmland lease agreements. Lease agreements are usually settled following the harvest season, from July to June in crops and rice, and from May to April in sugarcane. The length of the lease agreements are usually one year for crops, one to five years for rice and five to six years for sugarcane. Regarding crops, the production area can be planted and harvested one or two times per year. As an example, wheat can be planted in July and harvested in December. Right after its harvest, soybean can be planted in the same area and harvested in April. As a result, planted and harvested area can exceed the production area during one year. The production area for sugarcane can exceed the harvested area in one year. Grown sugarcane can be left in the fields and then harvested the following year. The following table sets forth the production area for the periods indicated:

| 91 |

|  | Period ended December 31, |

(1) Does not include second crop and forage area.

The decrease in the crop production area in 2016 compared to 2015 was mainly driven by the sale in November 2015 of La Cañada farm (3,399 hectares) and the transformation of owned land that was put under rice production. The increase in sugar, ethanol and energy production area in 2016 is explained by an increase in leased hectares..

(vi) Effect of Acquisitions and Dispositions

The comparability of our results of operations is also affected by the completion of significant acquisitions and dispositions. Our results of operations for earlier periods that do not include a recently completed acquisition or do include farming operations subsequently disposed of may not be comparable to the results of a more recent period that reflects the results of such acquisition or disposition.

(vii) Macroeconomic Developments in Emerging Markets

We generate nearly all of our revenue from the production of food and renewable energy in emerging markets. Therefore, our operating results and financial condition are directly impacted by macroeconomic and fiscal developments, including fluctuations in currency exchange rates, inflation and interest rate fluctuations, in those markets. The emerging markets where we conduct our business (including Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay) remain subject to such fluctuations.

(viii) Effects of Export Taxes on Our Products

Following the economic and financial crisis experienced by Argentina in 2002, the Argentine government increased export taxes on agricultural products, mainly on soybean and its derivatives, wheat, rice and corn. Soybean was subject to an export tax of 35.0%, wheat was subject to an export tax of 23.0%, rough rice was subject to an export tax of 10.0%, processed rice was subject to an export tax of 5.0%, corn was subject to an export tax of 20.0% and sunflower was subject to an export tax of 32.0%. Since December 2015, all of the export taxes mentioned above have been removed, except for soybean, for which the export tax has been reduced to 30.0%.

As local prices are determined taking into consideration the export parity reference, any increase or decrease in export taxes would affect our financial results.

(ix) Effects of Foreign Currency Fluctuations

Each of our Argentine, Brazilian and Uruguayan subsidiaries uses local currency as its functional currency. A significant portion of our operating costs in Argentina are denominated in Argentine Pesos and most of our operating costs in Brazil are denominated in Brazilian Reais. For each of our subsidiaries’ statements of income, foreign currency transactions are translated into the local currency, as such subsidiaries’ functional currency, using the exchange rates prevailing as of the dates of the relevant specific transactions. Exchange differences resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the statement of income under “finance income” or “finance costs,” as applicable. Our Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in U.S. dollars, and foreign exchange differences that arise in the translation process are disclosed in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

| 92 |

As of December 31, 2016, the Peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate was Ps.15.89 per U.S. dollar as compared to Ps.13.04 and Ps.8.55 per U.S. dollar as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As of December 31, 2016, the Real-U.S. dollar exchange rate was R$3.26 per U.S. dollar as compared to R$3.90 and R$2.66 per U.S. dollar as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

The following graph shows the Real-U.S. dollar rate of exchange for the periods indicated:

Argentinean Peso/ U.S. Dollar | Brazilean Reais/U.S. Dollar

Our principal foreign currency fluctuation risk involves changes in the value of the Brazilian Reais relative to the U.S. dollar. Periodically, we evaluate our exposure and consider opportunities to mitigate the effects of currency fluctuations by entering into currency forward contracts and other hedging instruments.

(x) Seasonality

Our business activities are inherently seasonal. We generally harvest and sell corn, soybean, rice and sunflower between February and August, and wheat from December to January. Cotton is unique in that while it is typically harvested from May to July, it requires a conditioning process that takes about two to three months before being ready to be sold. Sales in other business segments, such as in our Dairy segment, tend to be more stable. However, milk sales are generally higher during the fourth quarter, when weather conditions are more favorable for production. With the implementation of “continuous harvest”, sugarcane production is more stable during the year; however, the typical harvesting period in Brazil begins between April and May and ends between November and December. As a result of the above factors, there may be significant variations in our results of operations from one quarter to another, since planting activities may be more concentrated in one quarter whereas harvesting activities may be more concentrated in another quarter. In addition our quarterly results may vary as a result of the effects of fluctuations in commodity prices and production yields and costs related to the “Initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce” line item. See “—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates—Biological Assets and Agricultural Produce”.

(xi) Land Transformation

Our business model includes the transformation of pasture and unproductive land into land suitable for growing various crops and the transformation of inefficient farms into farms suitable for more efficient uses through the implementation of advanced and sustainable agricultural practices, such as "no-till" technology and crop rotation. During approximately the first three to five years of the land transformation process of any given parcel, we must invest heavily in transforming the land, and, accordingly, crop yields during such period tend to be lower than crop yields once the land is completely transformed. After the transformation process has been completed, the land requires less investment, and crop yields gradually increase. As a result, there may be variations in our results from one season to the next according to the amount of land in the process of transformation.

Our business model also includes the identification, acquisition, development and selective disposition of farmlands or other rural properties that after implementing agricultural best practices and increasing crop yields we believe have the potential to appreciate in terms of their market value. As a part of this strategy, we purchase and sell farms and other rural properties from time to time. Please see also "Risk Factors ̶ Risks Related to Argentina-Argentine law concerning foreign ownership of rural properties may adversely affect our results of operations and future investments in rural properties in Argentina" and "Risk Factors ̶ Risks Related to Brazil- Recent changes in Brazilian rules concerning foreign investment in rural properties may adversely affect our investments." included in “Item 3 Risk Factors.”

| 93 |

The results included in the Land Transformation segment are related to the acquisition and disposition of farmland businesses and not to the physical transformation of the land. The decision to acquire and/or dispose of a farmland business depends on several market factors that vary from period to period, rendering the results of these activities in one financial period when an acquisition of disposition occurs not directly comparable to the results in other financial periods when no acquisitions or dispositions occurred.

(xii) Capital Expenditures and Other Investments

Our capital expenditures, which consists of maintenance capital expenditures and expansion capital expenditures, during the last three years consisted mainly of expenses related to (i) acquiring land, (ii) transforming and increasing the productivity of our land, (iii) planting sugarcane and (iv) expanding and upgrading our production facilities. Our capital expenditures incurred in connection with such activities were $306.8 million for the year ended December 2014; $149.8 million for the year ended December 2015 and $133.2 million for the year ended December 2016. See also " ̶ Capital Expenditure Commitments."

(xiii) Effects of Corporate Taxes on Our Income

We are subject to a variety of rates over income taxes on our results of operations. The following table shows the income tax rates in effect for 2016 in each of the countries in which we operate:

|  | Tax Rate (%) |
Argentina |  |  | 35 |
Brazil(1) |  |  | 34 |
Uruguay |  |  | 25 |

| (1) | Including the Social Contribution on Net Profit (CSLL).

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We prepare our Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with IFRS. The critical accounting policies are policies important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and operating results, and which require management to make difficult and subjective judgments that are inherently uncertain. Based on this definition, we have identified the following significant accounting policies as critical to the understanding of our Consolidated Financial Statements. The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. The principal area where our management is required to make significant judgments about estimates where actual results could differ materially from such estimates is in the carrying amount of our biological assets. These estimates and judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We believe that the estimates and judgments upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates and judgments are made. We continually evaluate our judgments, estimates and assumptions. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our Consolidated Financial Statements will be affected.

The Company's critical accounting policies and estimates are consistent with those described in Note 32.1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Biological Assets and Agricultural Produce

Before harvest, our crops are biological assets. Subsequent to harvest, biological transformation ceases and the harvested crops meet the definition of agricultural produce under IAS 41 “Biological Assets.” As prescribed by IAS 41, we measure growing crops which have not attained significant biological growth at cost less any impairment losses, which approximates fair value. Capitalized expenses for growing crops include land preparation expenses and other direct production expenses incurred during the sowing period including costs of labor, fuel, seeds, agrochemical and fertilizer, among others. We measure biological assets (at initial recognition, when the biological asset has attained significant biological growth, and at each subsequent measurement reporting date) and agricultural produce at the point of harvest at fair value less selling costs. The objective of the fair value model under IAS 41 is to recognize gains and losses arising from such measurements gradually over the asset’s life rather than only on sale or realization. IAS 41 prescribes, among other things, the accounting treatment for biological assets during the period of growth, degeneration, production and procreation, and for the initial measurement of agricultural produce at the point of harvest.

We account for agricultural produce after harvest as inventory, as further described below.

The following table sets forth the way in which we value biological assets and agricultural produce for each of our principal products:

|  | Biological Asset |  |  |  |
|  | No significant biological growth |  | Significant biological growth |  | Agricultural Produce |  | Manufactured Product
Crops |  | Crop from planting to approximately 60 days following planting |  | Crop, from approximately 60 days after planting up to the moment of harvest (total period of approximately 3 to 5 months). |  | Harvested crop (soybean, corn, wheat, etc.) |  | N/A
Rice |  | Rice plant from planting to approximately 60 days following planting |  | Rice plant, from approximately 60 days after planting up to the moment of harvest (total period of approximately 3 to 4 months). |  | Harvested rough rice |  | Processed Rice (white rice)
Dairy |  | Dairy cow is considered a biological asset from birth/purchase to death or sale. |  | Fluid milk |  | N/A
Cattle |  | Beef cattle are considered a biological asset from birth/purchase to death or sale. |  | N/A |  | N/A
Sugar, ethanol and energy |  | The produce derived from the sugarcane from planting or after harvest up to approximately 30 days following planting |  | The produce derived from the sugarcane, from approximately 30 days after planting until harvest (total period of 10 to 14 months) |  | Sugarcane |  | Sugar, ethanol and energy
Valuation Criteria |  | Cost, which approximates fair value less accumulated impairment losses, if any. For dairy and cattle, fair value less estimated cost to sell. |  | Fair value (using discounted cash flow valuation) less cost to sell. |  | Net realizable value, except for rough rice and milk which are valued at cost. |  | Cost

| 95 |

Gains and losses that arise from measuring biological assets at fair value less selling costs and measuring agricultural produce at the point of harvest at fair value less selling costs are recognized in the statement of income in the period in which they arise as “Initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce.” We value our inventories of agricultural produce after harvest at net realizable value, except for rough rice, which is valued at cost.

When an active market exists for biological assets, we use the quoted market price in the most relevant market as a basis to determine the fair value of our biological assets, as in the case of cattle. For other biological assets where there is neither an active market nor market-determined prices during the growth cycle, we determine their fair value through the use of DCF valuation techniques. Therefore, we generally derive the fair value of our growing biological assets from the expected cash flows of the related agricultural produce. The DCF method requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including observable and unobservable data. Generally, the estimation of the fair value of biological assets is based on models or inputs that are not observable in the market, and the use of unobservable inputs is significant to the overall valuation of the assets. Various factors influence the availability of observable inputs, including, but not limited to, the type of asset and its location, climate changes and the technology used, among others.

Unobservable inputs are determined based on the best information available, for example, by reference to historical information regarding past practices and results, statistical and agronomical information and other analytical techniques. Changes in the assumptions underlying such subjective inputs can materially affect the fair value estimate and impact our results of operations and financial condition from period to period.

The DCF method requires the following significant inputs to project revenues and costs:

| • | Production cycles;

| • | Production area in hectares;

| • | Estimated crop and rice yields;

| • | Estimated sucrose content (Total Recoverable Sugar or TRS) for sugarcane;

| • | Estimated costs of harvesting and other costs to be incurred until the crops and rice reach maturity (mainly costs of pesticides, herbicides and spraying);

| • | Estimated transportation costs;

| • | Market prices; and

| • | Discount rates.

In contrast to biological assets whose fair value is generally determined using the DCF method, we typically determine the fair value of our agricultural produce at the point of harvest using market prices.

Market prices used in the DCF model are determined by reference to observable data in the relevant market (e.g., for crops and sugar). Harvesting costs and other costs are estimated based on historical and statistical data. Yields are estimated by our agronomic engineers based on several factors, including the location of the farmland, soil type, environmental conditions, infrastructure and other restrictions and growth at the time of measurement. Yields are subject to a high degree of uncertainty and may be affected by several factors out of our control, including but not limited to extreme or unusual weather conditions, plagues and other diseases. Discount rates reflect current market assessments of the assets involved and the time value of money.

As of December 31, 2016, the impact of a reasonable 5% increase (decrease) in estimated yields, with all other variables held constant, would result in an increase (decrease) in the fair value of the our plantations less cost to sell of $9.5 million ( for 2015 the fair value was $7.5 million) for sugarcane. As of December 31, 2016, the impact of a reasonable 20% increase (decrease) in estimated yields, with all other variables held constant, would result in an increase (decrease) in the fair value of our plantations less cost to sell of $2.3 million (for 2015 this fair value was $2.7 million) for crops and $6.6 million (2015: $6.9 million) for rice.

The key assumptions discussed above are highly sensitive. Reasonable shifts in assumptions including but not limited to increases or decreases in prices, costs and discount rates used would result in a significant increase or decrease to the fair value of biological assets. Estimates of production in themselves are dependent on various assumptions, in addition to those described above, including but not limited to several factors such as location, environmental conditions and other restrictions. Changes in these estimates could materially impact on estimated production, and could therefore affect estimates of future cash flows used in the assessment of fair value.

| 96 |

The valuation models and their assumptions are reviewed annually, or quarterly if warranted, and, if necessary, adjusted. During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016, we made no changes to the models.

The aggregate gains and losses arising during a period on initial recognition and from the changes in fair value less costs to sell of biological assets is affected by the way we treat our harvesting and production costs for accounting purposes. Since IAS 41 does not provide guidance on the treatment of these costs, we generally capitalize all costs directly involved with the management of biological assets. These costs may include labor, planting, fertilizers, agrochemicals, harvesting, irrigation and feeding, among others. Then, the cost of the biological asset is adjusted periodically by the re-measurement of the biological asset at fair value less cost to sell. For example, before significant biological growth is attained, costs and expenses are capitalized as biological assets, and once biological assets reach significant biological growth we adjust biological assets to fair value less cost to sell. Accordingly, capitalized biological assets are adjusted periodically at fair value less cost to sell. At the point of harvest, we recognize the agricultural produce at fair value less cost to sell. The periodic adjustments in fair value less cost to sell reflect period to period gains or losses. After agricultural produce is harvested, we may hold it in inventory at net realizable value up to the point of sale, which includes market selling price less direct selling expenses, with changes in net realizable value recognized in the statement of income as incurred. When we sell our inventory, we sell at the prevailing market price and we incur direct selling expenses.

We generally recognize the agricultural produce of crops held in inventory at net realizable value with changes recognized in the statement of income as they occur. Therefore, changes in net realizable value represent the difference in value from the last measurement through the date of sale on an aggregated basis.

We consider gains and losses recorded in the line items of the statement of income “Initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce” and “Changes in net realizable value of agricultural produce after harvest” to be realized only when the related produce or manufactured product is sold to third parties and, therefore, converted into cash or other financial assets. Therefore, “realized” gains or losses means that the related produce or product has been sold and the proceeds are included in revenues for the year.

The sale of agricultural produce is revenue as defined in IAS 18. However, IAS 41 does not provide guidance on the presentation of revenues and costs arising from the selling of biological assets and agricultural produce. Due to the lack of guidance in IAS 41 and based on IAS 1, “Presentation of financial statements,” we present, as a matter of accounting policy, our sales of biological assets and agricultural produce and their respective costs within the lines items “Sales of goods and services rendered” and “Cost of goods and services rendered”. See Notes 4 and 5 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for a breakdown of sales and costs for goods sold and services rendered. The sale of agricultural produce and biological assets represents the consideration received or receivable for the sale to third parties based generally on the applicable quoted market prices of the respective produce or biological asset in the relevant markets at the point of sale. At the point of sale, our agricultural produce is measured at net realizable value, which reflects the sale price less the direct cost to sell, and our biological assets are measured at fair value less cost to sell, in each case, using the applicable quoted market prices in the relevant markets.

Based on the foregoing, the profit of our agricultural produce is recognized under the line ítems “Initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce” and “Changes in net realizable value of agricultural produce after harvest”. When the agricultural produce is sold to third parties we do not record any additional profit as the gain or loss had already been recognized.

The profit of our manufactured products is recognized when they are sold. The cost of manufactured products includes, among others, the cost of agricultural produce transferred internally at fair market value (i.e. harvested sugarcane, rough rice, fluid milk, etc).

Operating Segments

IFRS 8 “Operating Segments” requires an entity to report financial and descriptive information about its reportable segments, which are operating segments or aggregations of operating segments that meet specified criteria. Operating segments are components of an entity about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The CODM evaluates the business based on the differences in the nature of its operations, products and services. The amount reported for each segment item is the measure reported to the CODM for these purposes.

| 97 |

The Company operates in three major lines of business, namely, Farming; Sugar, Ethanol and Energy; and Land Transformation.

| · | The Company’s ‘Farming’ business is comprised of four reportable segments:

| · | The Company’s ‘Crops’ segment consists of planting, harvesting and sale of grains, oilseeds and fibers (including wheat, corn, soybeans, cotton and sunflowers, among others), and to a lesser extent the provision of grain warehousing/conditioning and handling and drying services to third parties. Each underlying crop in this segment does not represent a separate operating segment. Management seeks to maximize the use of the land through the cultivation of one or more type of crops. Types and surface amount of crops cultivated may vary from harvest year to harvest year depending on several factors, some of them out of the Group´s control. Management is focused on the long-term performance of the productive land, and to that extent, the performance is assessed considering the aggregated combination, if any, of crops planted in the land. A single manager is responsible for the management of operating activity of all crops rather than for each individual crop.

| · | The Company’s ‘Rice’ segment consists of planting, harvesting, processing and marketing of rice;

| · | The Company’s ‘Dairy’ segment consists of the production and sale of fluid milk and other dairy products,

| · | The Company’s ‘All Other Segments’ segment consists of the aggregation of the remaining non-reportable operating segments, which do not meet the quantitative thresholds for disclosure and for which the Company’s management does not consider them to be of continuing significance, namely, Coffee and Cattle.

| · | The Company’s ‘Sugar, Ethanol and Energy’ segment consists of cultivating sugarcane which is processed in owned sugar mills, transformed into ethanol, sugar and electricity and marketed;

| · | The Company’s ‘Land Transformation’ segment comprises the (i) identification and acquisition of underdeveloped and undermanaged farmland businesses; and (ii) realization of value through the strategic disposition of assets (generating profits).

| · | The Company’s ‘Corporate’ segment comprises certain other activities of a holding function nature not allocable to the segments

Sales of Goods and Services Rendered

|  | Crops |  |  | Rice |  |  | Dairy |  |  | All other segments |  |  | Sugar, Ethanol and Energy |  |  | Total |
|  | (In thousands of $) |
2016 |  |  | 142,124 |  |  |  | 96,562 |  |  |  | 32,897 |  |  |  | 960 |  |  |  | 596,692 |  |  |  | 869,235 |

| 102 |

Sales of goods and services rendered increased 28.9%, from $ 674.3 million in 2015 to $ 869.2 million in 2016, primarily as a result of:

| • | a $196.1 million increase in our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy segment, mainly due to: (i) a 23.1% increase in the volume of sugar and ethanol sold, measured in TRS(1), from 1.3 million tons in 2015 to 1.6 million tons in 2016; (ii) a 23.2% increase in the price of ethanol, from $433.4 per cubic meter in 2015 to $534.1 per cubic meter in 2016; (iii) a 29.6% increase in the price of sugar, from $297.2 per ton in 2015 to $385.1 per ton in 2016; and (iv) a 66.7% increase in volume of energy sold, from 0.6 million MWh in 2015 to 1.0 million MWh in 2016; partially offset by a 31.6% decrease in energy prices, from $76.8 per MWh in 2015 to $52.5 per MWh in 2016. The increase in volume of sugar and ethanol sold was due to the 33.7% increase in sugarcane milled, from 8.3 million tons in 2015 to 11.1 million tons in 2016; partially offset by (i) a 3.6% decrease in the TRS content in sugarcane, from 132.0 kilograms per ton in 2015 to 127.3 kilograms per ton in 2016; and (ii) an increase in inventories in 2016 of 76.1 thousand tons measured in TRS compared to a decrease in inventories in 2015 of 83.6 thousand tons measured in TRS. The increase in energy sold was due to: (a) an increase in sugarcane milled; (b) the 356.2% increase in energy sold from third parties, from 63.2 thousand MWh in 2015 to 288.3 thousand Mwh in 2016; and (c) a 1.8% increase in the cogeneration efficiency, from 66.4 KWh per ton crushed in 2015 to 67.6 KWh per ton crushed in 2016. The increase in sugarcane milled, is explained by (i) a 30.8% increase in milling days, from 182 days in 2015 to 238 days in 2016, due to the implementation of non-stop harvest season; and (ii) an increase in sugarcane supply. The increase in sugarcane supply was caused by: (a) a 31.1% increase in the harvested area from 82.3 thousand hectares in 2015 to 107.9 thousand hectares in 2016 due to our focus on planting during 2015 to expand our sugarcane plantation and ensure sugarcane supply; (b) a 5.6% increase in sugarcane yields from 93.0 tons per hectare in 2015 to 98.2 tons per hectare in 2016 due to improvements in production practices and good weather; and (c) a 1.2% increase in sugarcane purchased to third parties, from 938.5 thousand tons in 2015 to 950.0 thousand tons in 2016.

The following figure sets forth the variables that determine our Sugar and Ethanol sales:

| (1) | On average, one metric ton of sugarcane contains 140 kilograms of TRS (Total Recoverable Sugar). While a mill can produce either sugar or ethanol, the TRS input requirements differ between these two products. On average, 1.045 kilograms of TRS equivalent are required to produce 1.0 kilogram of sugar, while the amount of TRS required to produce 1 liter of ethanol is 1.691 kilograms

| • | A $12.6 million decrease in our Crops segment mainly driven by (i) a 1.5% decrease in soybean prices, from $265.7 per ton in 2015 to $261.7 per ton in 2016; a 22.4% decrease in wheat prices, from $181.0 per ton in 2015 to $140.4 per ton in 2016; and a 21.1% decrease in sunflower prices, from $492.2 per ton in 2015 to $388.3 per ton in 2016; and (ii) a 14.1% decrease in the volume of soybean sold, from 283.8 thousand tons in 2015 to 243.8 thousand tons in 2016; and a 27.1% decrease in the volume of sunflower sold, from 25.8 thousand tons in 2015 to 18.8 thousand tons in 2016. These decreases were partially offset by: (a) a 10.1% increase in corn prices, from $149.4 per ton in 2015 to $164.6 per ton in 2016; (b) a 5.1% increase in the volume of corn sold, from 280.4 thousand tons in 2015 to 294.7 thousand tons in 2016; and a 39.7% increase in the volume of wheat sold, from 92.8 thousand tons in 2015 to 129.6 thousand tons in 2016. The decrease in volume sold was mainly due to: (i) a decrease in soybean and sunflower yields, from 3.0 tons per hectare in 2015 to 2.7 tons per hectare in 2016 for soybean, and from 1.8 tons per hectare in 2015 to 1.6 tons per hectare in 2016 for sunflower due to the above average yields achieved in 2015 as a consequence of the favourable weather conditions; and (b) a decrease in the area destined to soybean that was switched to corn due to better expected margins and crop rotation. This was partially offset by an inventories sell-off in 2016 in comparison to an inventories build-up in 2015.

| (1) | Includes sorghum, pop corn and peanut.

| (2) | Includes barley

| • | a $11.9 million increase in our Rice segment, mainly due to: (i) a 46.7% increase in the volume of white rice sold measured in tons of rough rice, from 201.4 thousand tons in 2015 to 295.4 thousand tons in 2016; and (ii) a 11.4% increase in the sale of by products from $10.5 million in 2015 to $11.7 million in 2016. This increase is explained by: (a) a 15.7% increase in yields, from 5.1 tons per hectare in 2015 to 5.9 tons per hectare in 2016; (b) a 5.3% increase in the area under production from 37.6 thousand hectares to 39.6 thousand hectares; (c) an increase in inventories, measured in tons of rough rice, of 40.6 thousand tons in 2015 compared to a decrase in inventories of 41.9 thousand tons in 2016. The increase in volumes sold was partially offset by a decrease of 22.0% in the price of white rice, from $368.1 per ton of rough rice equivalent in 2015 to $287.2 per ton of rough rice equivalent in 2016.

| • | Our Dairy segment remained essentially unchanged, a 18.2% decrease in fluid milk prices from $0.33 per liter in 2015 to $0.27 per liter in 2016 was offset by (i) a 4.4% increase in the amount of liters of fluid milk sold, from 85.7 million liters in 2015 to 89.5 million liters in 2016; and (ii) a 325.0% increase in the volume of powder milk sold, from 0.4 thousand tons in 2015 to 1.7 thousand tons in 2016. The increase in the amount of liters sold is attributable to (a) a 3.3% increase in our milking cow herd driven by enhanced reproduction efficiencies at our two free-stall dairy facilities from an average of 6,658 heads in 2015 to an average of 6,880 heads in 2016; and (b) by a 0.8% increase in cow productivity, from 36.4 liters per day per cow in 2015 to 36.7 liters per day per cow in 2016 due to operating efficiencies.

The profit of our agricultural produce is recognized under the line ítems “Initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce” and “Changes in net realizable value of agricultural produce after harvest”. When the agricultural produce is sold to third parties we do not record any additional profit as the gain or loss had already been recognized.

The profit of our manufactured products is recognized when they are sold. The cost of manufactured products includes, among others, the cost of agricultural produce transferred internally at fair market value (i.e. harvested sugarcane, rough rice, fluid milk, etc).

| 105 |

Cost of goods sold and services rendered increased 21.7%, from $557.8 million in 2015 to $678.6 million in 2016. This increase was primarily due to:

| • | a $119.7 million increase in our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy segment mainly due to: (i) the 19.4% increase in volume of sugar and energy sold measured in TRS; and (ii) a 16.3% increase in the fair market value of the harvested sugarcane transferred from the field to the industry.

| • | a $14.5 million increase in our Rice segment mainly due to the 46.7% increase in the volume sold. This was partially offset by (i) a 18.4% decrease in unitary costs, from $340.6 per ton of rough rice equivalent in 2015 to $ 277.8 per ton of rough rice equivalent in 2016, mainly due to the Argentine Peso depreciation and to operational improvements in our rice mills.

Initial Recognition and Changes in Fair Value of Biological Assets and Agricultural Produce

Initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce increased from $54.5 million in 2015 to $125.5 million in 2016, primarily due to:

| • | a $37.2 million increase in our Crops segment mainly due to:

| - | a $37.7 million increase in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of crops at the point of harvest, from a gain of $10.5 million in 2015 to a gain of $48.2 million in 2016, mainly due to the increase in margins as a result of the removal of export taxes and the depreciation of the Argentine Peso, which dilutes our costs in terms of dollars per hectare.

| - | This was partially offset by, a $0.5 million decrease in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell for non-harvested crops, from $1.1 million in 2015 to $0.6 million in 2016, explained by lower projected soybean and corn prices.

| - | Of the $48.8 million gain of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce for 2016, $5.8 million represent the unrealized portion, as compared to the $2.2 million unrealized gain of the $11.6 million of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce in 2015.

| • | a $27.9 million increase in our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy segment, mainly due to:

| - | The changes in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of sugarcane at the point of harvest increased from $24.5 million in 2015 to $60.4 million in 2016 due to higher sugar prices which increased the fair market value of the harvested sugarcane.

| - | This was partially offset by a $8.0 million decrease in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of non-harvested sugarcane, from $8.3 million in 2015 to $0.3 million in 2016, mainly explained by above average expected yields as of December 2015.

| 106 |

| - | Of the $60.7 million gain of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce for 2016, $60.4 million represents the realized portion, as compared to the $24.5 million unrealized portion of the $32.8 million loss of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce in 2016.

| • | a $7.7 million increase in our Rice segment mainly due to :

| - | a $7.6 million increase in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of the rice at the point of harvest, from $2.6 million in 2015 to $10.2 million in 2016 mainly due to: (i) a 15.7% increase in yields; and (ii) the increase in area under production; and (iii) the depreciation of the Argentine Peso which impacts our costs.

| - | Of the $10.5 million gain of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce for 2016, $8.2 million gain represents the realized portion, as compared to the $2.2 million gain realized portion of the $2.8 million gain of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce in 2015.

| • | a $2.1 million decrease in our Dairy segment mainly due to:

| - | a $3.3 million decrease in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of fluid milk, from $7.5 million in 2015 to $4.2 million in 2016, mainly due to the 18.2% decrease in fluid milk prices.

| - | Of the $5.5 million gain of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce for 2016, $4.2 million gain represents the realized portion of such gain, as compared to the $7.5 million realized gain portion of the $7.5 million gain in initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce in 2015.

Changes in Net Realizable Value of Agricultural Produce after Harvest

|  | Crops |  |  | Rice |  |  | Dairy |  |  | All other segments |  |  | Sugar, Ethanol and Energy |  |  | Total |

Changes in net realizable value of agricultural produce after harvest is mainly composed by: (i) profit or loss from commodity price fluctuations during the period of time the agricultural produce is in inventory, which affects its fair value; (ii) profit or loss from the valuation of forward contracts related to agricultural produce in inventory; and (iii) profit from direct exports. Changes in net realizable value of agricultural produce after harvest increased from $3.4 million in 2014 to $14.7 million in 2015. This increase is mainly explained by the steep depreciation of the Argentine Peso in 2015 that impacted positively on the valuation of our inventories which are recorded in their functional currency, compared to the negative impact of higher soybean prices on our valuation of forward contracts in 2016.

Other operating income, net decreased 126.7% from a $31.1 million gain in 2015 to a $8.3 million loss in 2016, primarily due to:

| • | a $25.2 million decrease in our Crops segment mainly explained by the mark-to-market effect of outstanding hedge positions, which was negatively affected by the increase in futures prices during 2016.

| • | a $7.9 million decrease in our Land Transformation segment due to the sale in 2015 of “La Cañada”, a 3,399 hectare farm located in the province of San Luis, Argentina, for a total consideration of $12.6 million.

| • | a $15.2 million decrease in our Sugar, Ethanol & Energy segment mainly explained by the mark-to-market effect of outstanding hedge positions; which were negatively affected by the increase in sugar futures prices in 2016, in contrast to positive effect due to the drecrease of the mentioned future prices in 2015

This was partially offset by:

| • | a $8.4 million increase in all other segments, that mainly is related to the settlement of an arbitration dispute with Marfrig Argentina SA, subsidiary of Marfrig Alimentos SA. The settlement compensates Adecoagro for unpaid invoices and provides indemnification for early termination of lease agreements for cattle grazing activities.

Our share of loss of Joint Ventures totaled a loss of $2.7 million in 2015 to zero in 2016. The result in 2015 is explained by the 50% interest that we hold in CHS AGRO, a joint venture with CHS Inc., dedicated to the processing of confectionary sunflower. In 2016, as the share of losses in the joint venture equals or exceeds the carrying amount of the investment, we discontinue applying the equity method, the investment is reduced to zero and we no longer record additional losses.

Financial Results, Net

Net financial losses increased 46.1% from a loss of $107.7 million in 2015 to a loss of $157.4 million in 2016. This was due to: (i) the $32.7 million loss that was reclassified from Equity to the “Financial Result, net” line item in 2015, compared to the $85.2 million loss that was reclassified in the same period in 2016. Please see “—Hedge Accounting—Cash Flow Hedge” described on Note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Income Tax (expense) / benefit

For the year ended December 31, 2016, we recognized a consolidated income tax expense of $9.4 million on gain before income taxes of $13.1 million. For the comparable 2015 period, we recognized a consolidated income tax benefit of $8.0 million on loss before income taxes of $12.3 million. The effective tax rates were 71.5% for the year ended December 31, 2016 due to nondeductible expenses, mainly related to losses from derivatives in Uruguay and some financial expenses in Brazil. For the year 2015 the effective benefit rate was higher than the theoretical income tax rate due to the non taxable gains of derivative financial instruments of approximately $17 million in Uruguay.

Profit / (Loss) for the Year

As a result of the foregoing, our net result for the year increased from a loss of $4.3 million in 2015 to a gain of $3.7 million in 2016.

Sales of goods and services rendered decreased 6.7%, from $723.0 million in 2014 to $674.3 million in 2015, primarily as a result of:

| • | A $22.9 million decrease in our Crops segment mainly driven by (i) a general decrease in the price of grains sold: soybean decreased 24.7%, from $352.8 per ton in 2014 to $265.5 per ton in 2015, corn decreased 20.0%, from $186.8 per ton in 2014 to $149.5 per ton in 2015, and wheat decreased 17.2%, from $218.0 per ton in 2014 to $180.4 per ton in 2015; (ii) a 24.9% decrease in the volume of corn sold, from 373.3 thousand tons in 2014 to 280.4 thousand tons in 2015, as a result of a 3.4% decrease in corn yields, from 5.9 in 2014 to 5.7 in 2015; and (iii) a decrease in the planting area for corn that was switched to soybean due to better expected margins. These decreases were partially offset by (a) a 18.5% increase in soybean volume sold due to higher soybean yields, from 2.7 tons per hectare in 2014 to 3.2 in 2015, for soybean first crop and from 1.7 in 2014 to 2.5 in 2015 for soybean second crop; and (b) an increase in the volume of wheat sold, from 40.5 tons in 2014 to 92.8 in 2015, as a result of higher stocks carried from previous periods.

The following table sets forth the breakdown of sales for the periods indicated.

(1) Includes sorghum, popcorn and peanut.

(2) Includes barley

| • | a $19.0 million decrease in our Rice segment, mainly due to: (i) a 9.7% decrease in the price per ton of rough rice equivalent, from $358.2 in 2014 to $323.6 in 2015; and (ii) a 25.0% decrease in the volume of white rice sold measured in tons of rough rice, from 236.1 thousand tons in 2014 to 177.1 thousand tons in 2015, mainly explained by: (a) a decrease of 13.6% in yields from 5.9 tons per hectare in 2014 to 5.1 tons per hectare in 2015; (b) a 5.8% decrease in purchases of rough rice to third parties, from 41.6 tons in 2014 to 39.2 tons in 2015 due to the decrease in the margin of processing rough rice from third parties; and (c) a higher inventory build-up from 10.2 thousand tons of rough rice in 2014 compared to 35.9 thousand tons of rough rice in 2015. This was partially offset by a 6.3% increase in area, from 35.3 thousand hectares in 2014 to 37.6 thousand hectares in 2015.

| • | a $6.5 million decrease in our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy segment, mainly due to: (i) a 20.0% decrease in sugar prices from $371.3 per ton in 2014 to $297.2 per ton in 2015; (ii) a reduction in ethanol prices of 22.9%, from $562.0 per cubic meter in 2014 to $433.4 per cubic meter in 2015; and (iii) a 49.1% decrease in energy prices from $150.9 per MWh in 2014 to $76.8 in 2015. The decrease in ethanol and energy prices was mainly caused by the depreciation of the Brazilean Real. The fall in prices was partially offset by: (i) a 32.6% increase in the volume of sugar and ethanol sold, measured in TRS(1), from 990.1 thousand tons in 2014 to 1,312.5 thousand tons in 2015; and (ii) a 37.3% increase in volume of energy sold, from 442.7 thousand MWh in 2014 to 607.8 thousand MWh in 2015. The increase in volume of sugar and ethanol sold was due to (a) a 15.3% increase in sugarcane milled, from 7.2 million tons in 2014 to 8.3 million tons in 2015; (b) a 1.1% increase in the TRS content in sugarcane, from 130.5 kilograms per ton in 2014 to 132.0 kilograms per ton in 2015; and (c) a higher inventory decreased, measured in TRS, from 14.8 thousand tons in 2014 compared to 68.0 thousand tons in 2015. The increase in the volume of energy sold was mainly due to (a) the increase in sugarcane milled; and (b) an increase in the cogeneration efficiency ratio measured in KWh per ton of sugarcane crushed, from 61.6 in 2014 to 66.4 in 2015. The increase in the sugarcane milled is due to: (i) the increase in daily milling resulting from the completion of Ivinhema mill in May 2015; (ii) a 15.1% increase in sugarcane yields from 80.8 tons per hectare in 2014 to 93.0 tons per hectare in 2015; (iii) a 15.2% increase in sugarcane purchased to third parties, from 814.6 thousand tons in 2014 to 938.5 thousand tons in 2015; and (iv) the expansion of our sugarcane plantation, which allowed a higher harvested area, from 124.4 thousand hectares in 2014 to 129.3 hectares in 2015.

| • | Our Dairy segment remained essentially unchanged, mainly due to: (i) a 38.3% decrease in the volume of powder milk sold, from 770.5 tons in 2014 to 475.5 tons in 2015; (ii) a 21.1% decrease in powder milk prices, from $3.8 thousand per ton in 2014 to $3.0 thousand per ton in 2015; and (iii) a 13.2% decrease in fluid milk prices, from $0.38 per liter in 2014 to $0.33 per liter in 2015. These decreases were offset by a 18.4% increase in the amount of liters of fluid milk sold, from 72.8 million liters in 2014 to 86.2 million liters in 2015 as a result of: (i) a 3.4% increase in our milking cow herd, from an average of 6,440 heads in 2014 to an average of 6,658 heads in 2015, driven by enhanced reproductive indicators at our two free-stall dairy facilities; and (ii) a 7.7% increase in cow productivity, from 33.8 liters per day per cow in 2014 to 36.4 liters per day per cow in 2015 due to enhanced operating efficiencies.

The profit of our agricultural produce is recognized under the line ítems “Initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce” and “Changes in net realizable value of agricultural produce after harvest”. When the agricultural produce is sold to third parties, we do not record any additional profit as the gain or loss had already been recognized.

The profit of our manufactured products is recognized when they are sold. The cost of manufactured products includes, among others, the cost of agricultural produce transferred internally at fair market value (i.e. harvested sugarcane, rough rice, fluid milk, etc).

| 112 |

Cost of goods sold and services rendered decreased 7.8%, from $605.3 million in 2014 to $557.8 million in 2015. This decrease was primarily due to:

| • | a $15.1 million decrease in our Rice segment mainly due to: (i) the decrease of 25.0% in the volume sold partially offset by an 11.7% increase in our unitary cost from $346.8 per ton of rough rice in 2014 to $387.5 per ton of rough rice in 2015 due to the appreciation in real terms of the Argentine Peso; during the year the steep depreciation of the Argentine Peso occurred in December 2015.

| • | a $9.0 million decrease in our Sugar and Ethanol segment due to a lower unitary cost of product sold due to a 46.6% depreciation of the Brazilean Real during 2015.

Initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce decreased from $100.2 million in 2014 to $54.5 million in 2015, primarily due to:

| • | a $28.7 million decrease in our Crops segment mainly due to:

| - | a $30.7 million decrease in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of crops at the point of harvest, from a gain of $41.2 million in 2014 to a gain of $10.5 million in 2015, mainly due to the decrease in commodity prices.

| - | a $2.0 million increase in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell for non-harvested crops, from a loss of $0.9 million in 2014 to a gain of $1.1 million in 2015, explained by: (i) higher projected corn yields as of December due to favourable weather forecast; (ii) and lower costs due to the operating efficiencies gained coupled with the depreciation of the Argentine Peso.

| - | Of the $11.6 million gain of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce for 2015, $2.2 million represents the unrealized portion, as compared to the $2.8 million unrealized gain of the $40.3 million of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce in 2014.

| • | a $8.7 million decrease in our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy segment, mainly due to:

| - | a $2.4 million decrease in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of non-harvested sugarcane, from $10.7 million in 2014 to $8.3 million in 2015, mainly generated by a decrease in projected prices for harvested sugarcane as of December 2015.

| - | a $6.4 million decrease in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of sugarcane at the point of harvest, from $30.9 million in 2014 to $24.5 million in 2015, mainly generated by a decrease in sugar prices.

| - | Of the $32,8 million gain of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce for 2015, $8.3 million represent the unrealized portion, as compared to the $10.7 million unrealized portion of the $41.5 million of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce in 2014.

| • | a $5.7 million decrease in our Rice segment mainly due to :

| - | a $9.5 million decrease in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of rice at the point of harvest, from a gain of $12.2 million in 2014 to a gain of $2.7 million in 2015 mainly due to; (i) the 14.6% decrease in yields; and (ii) the higher costs in 2015 due to the strengthening of local currency; partially offset by the increase in area under production.

| - | a $3.7 million increase in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of biological assets planted as of December 2015, from a loss of $3.5 million to a gain of $0.2 million in 2015 due to the lower projected costs due to the depreciation of the Argentine peso.

| - | Of the $2.8 million gain of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce for 2015, $2.2 million gain represents the realized portion, as compared to the $10.9 million gain realized portion of the $8.6 million gain of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce in 2014.

| • | a $2.3 million decrease in our Dairy segment mainly due to:

| - | a $1.3 million decrease in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of fluid milk, from a gain of $8.8 million in 2014 to a gain of $7.5 million in 2015, mainly due to the 13.2% decrease in fluid milk prices.

| - | Of the $7.5 million gain of initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce for 2015, $7.5 million gain represents the realized portion of such gain, as compared to the $8.8 million realized gain portion of the $9.9 million gain in initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce in 2014.

Changes in Net Realizable Value of Agricultural Produce after Harvest

|  | Crops |  |  | Rice |  |  | Dairy |  |  | All other segments |  |  | Sugar, Ethanol and Energy |  |  | Total |

2014 |  |  | 3,401 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 3,401 |

Changes in net realizable value of agricultural produce after harvest is mainly composed of: (i) profit or loss from commodity price fluctuations during the period of time the agricultural produce is in inventory, which affects its fair value; (ii) profit or loss from the valuation of forward contracts related to agricultural produce in inventory; and (iii) profit from direct exports. Changes in net realizable value of agricultural produce after harvest increased from $3.4 million in 2014 to $14.7 million in 2015. This increase is mainly explained by the steep depreciation of the Argentine Peso in 2015 that impacted positively the valuation of our inventories which are recorded in their functional currency.

General and Administrative Expenses

|  | Crops |  |  | Rice |  |  | Dairy |  |  | All other segments |  |  | Sugar, Ethanol and Energy |  |  | Corporate |  |  | Total |

Our general and administrative expenses decreased 8.2%, from $52.7 million in 2015 to $48.4 million in 2016, mainly explained by the depreciation of the Brazilean Real.

Selling expenses decreased 10.9%, from $78.9 million in 2014 to $70.3 million in 2015. The $7.1 million decrease in our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy segment is mainly explained by the impact of the depreciation of the Brazilean Real in our freight expenses. The $1.8 million decrease in our Rice segment is explained by lower volumes of white rice sold.

Other Operating Income, Net

Other operating income, net increased 159.2% from $12.0 million gain in 2014 to $31.1 million in 2015, primarily due to:

| • | a $16.0 million increase in our Crops segment mainly explained by the mark-to-market effect of outstanding hedge positions.

| • | a $7.9 million increase in our Land Transformation segment due to the sale in of “La Cañada”, a 3,399 hectare farm located in the province of San Luis, Argentina, for a total consideration of $12.6 million.

| • | a $4.6 million decrease in our Sugar, Ethanol & Energy segment mainly explained by the mark-to-market effect of outstanding hedge positions; which were negatively affected by a trend of rising prices starting in the fourth quarter of 2015, which was lower than the increase in 2014.

Our share of loss of Joint Ventures increased from a loss of $0.9 million in 2014 to a $2.7 million loss in 2015. This loss in mainly explained by the nominal depreciation of the Argentine Peso that impacts on the value of CHS AGRO´s dollar denominated debt.

Financial Results, Net

Our financial results, net decreased from a loss of $79.2 million in 2014 to a loss of $107.7 million in 2015, primarily due to: (i) a $23.4 million mainly non-cash loss in 2015, compared to a $9.2 million non-cash loss in 2014, mostly generated by the impact of the Brazilean Real fluctuation on our dollar denominated debt. Additionally, during the period a $32.7 million loss was reclassified from Equity to the “Financial Result, net” line item in 2015, in comparison with the $12.0 million loss that was reclassified in 2014. Please see “—Hedge Accounting—Cash Flow Hedge” described on Note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements; and (ii) $4.4 million loss in 2015 compared to a $3.2 million loss in 2014, primarily resulting from the mark to market of our currency hedge derivatives. The loss was partially offset by lower interest expenses, from a loss of $54.9 million in 2014 to $49.5 million in 2015.

| 115 |

The following table sets forth the breakdown of financial results for the periods indicated.

|  | Year ended December 31, 2015 |

Income Tax (expense) / benefit

For the year ended December 31, 2015, we recognized a consolidated income tax benefit of $8.0 million on loss before income taxes of $12.3 million. For the comparative 2014 year, we recognized a consolidated income tax expense of $10.5 million on gain before income taxes of $21.6 million. The effective tax rates were 64.6% and 48.8% for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 respectively. For the year 2015 the effective benefit rate was higher than the theoretical income tax rate due to the non taxable gains of derivative financial instruments of approximately $17 million in Uruguay. The 2014 year was impacted mainly by a tax loss carryforward not recognized in Brazil during 2014 due to projections by the Company about the possibility to apply this tax loss carryforward in the future.

Profit / (Loss) for the Year

As a result of the foregoing, our net result for the year decreased from a gain of $11.0 million in 2014 to a loss of $4.4 million in 2015.

| B. | LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our liquidity and capital resources are and will be influenced by a variety of factors, including:

| • | our ability to generate cash flows from our operations;

| • | the level of our outstanding indebtedness and the interest that we are obligated to pay on such outstanding indebtedness;

| • | our capital expenditure requirements, which consist primarily of investments in new farmland, in our operations, in equipment and plant facilities and maintenance costs; and

| • | our working capital requirements.

Our principal sources of liquidity have traditionally consisted of shareholders’ contributions, short and long term borrowings and proceeds received from the disposition of transformed farmland or subsidiaries.

We believe that our working capital will be sufficient during the next 12 months to meet our liquidity requirements.

Operating Activities

Year ended December 31, 2016

Net cash generated by operating activities was $255.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. During this year, we generated a net income of $3.7 million that included non-cash charges relating primarily to depreciation and amortization of $127.5 million, interest and other financial expenses, net of $44.7 million, $21.7 million loss from derivative financial instruments and forwards, $9.8 million gain from the unrealized portion of “Initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets”, $19.1 million foreign exchanges losses, and $85.2 million loss as a result of the reclassification from Equity to Financial Results, net in connection with the cash flow hedge accounting.

In addition, other changes in operating asset and liability balances resulted in a net decrease in cash of $51.5 million, primarily due to an increase in trade and other receivables, an increase in inventories totaling $22.3 million, an increase in biological asset of $23.7 million, and an increase of $17.9 million from derivative financial instruments. These effects were partially offset by an increase of $39.1 million in trade and other payables.

During this year, we generated a net income of $11.0 million that included non-cash charges relating primarily to depreciation and amortization of $137.7 million, interest and other financial expenses, net of $50.9 million, a gain of $12.6 million from the unrealized portion of the “Initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce”, $10.5 million of income tax expense, $9.2 million of foreign exchange losses; and $12.0 million loss as a result of the reclassification from Equity to Financial Results, net in connection with the adoption of cash flow hedge accounting under IAS39.

In addition, other changes in operating asset and liability balances resulted in a net decrease in cash of $94.7 million, primarily due to an increase in trade and other receivables (due to the buildup of working capital related to the expansion of Sugar and Ethanol operations, mainly advances to suppliers and long term tax credits related to the construction of the Ivinhema mill), an increase in ethanol inventories (as a consequence of the decision to capture better prices) totaling $34.8 million, and an increase in biological assets totaling $38.2 million. These effects were partially offset by an increase of $17.1 million in liabilities.

Investing Activities

Year ended December 31, 2016

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $122.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, primarily due to $74.2 million related to the renewal and expansion of our sugarcane plantation; $58.3 million related to purchase of agricultural and industrial equipment.

| 118 |

Financing Activities

Year ended December 31, 2016

Net cash used in financing activities was $181.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, primarily derived from net payment of borrowings in the amounts of $125.2 million. During this period, interest paid totaled $48.4 million and purchases of own shares totaled $4.8 million.

Year ended December 31, 2015

Net cash provided by financing activities was $92.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2015 primarily derived from the incurrence of new long and short term loans, mainly for our Brazilian operations related to the Sugar and Ethanol cluster development of $299.3 million and $211.0 million, respectively; and from the sale of non-controlling interest in subsidiaries for $22 million. All these effects were partially offset by payments of long and short term borrowings for $165.5 million and $208.3 million, respectively. During this period, interest paid totaled $48.4 million.

Year ended December 31, 2014

Net cash provided by financing activities was $73.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2014 primarily derived from the incurrence of new long and short term loans, mainly for our Brazilian operations related to the Sugar and Ethanol cluster development of $180.0 million and $152.2 million, respectively; and from the sale of non-controlling interest in subsidiaries for $49.3 million. All these effects were partially offset by payments of long and short term borrowings for $177.0 million and $70.2 million, respectively. During this period, interest paid totaled $48.9 million. We also used $13.0 million in the repurchase of our own shares.

| 119 |

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Historically since our cash flows from operations were insufficient to fund our working capital needs and investment plans, we funded our operations with proceeds from short-term and long-term indebtedness and capital contributions from existing and new private investors. In 2011, we raised $421.8 million from an Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) and simultaneous private placement. As of December 31, 2016, our cash and cash equivalents amounted to $158.6 million.

However, we may need additional cash resources in the future to continue our investment plans. Also, we may need additional cash if we experience a change in business conditions or other developments. We also might need additional cash resources in the future if we find and wish to pursue opportunities for investment, acquisitions, strategic alliances or other similar investments. If we ever determine that our cash requirements exceed our amounts of cash and cash equivalents on hand, we might seek to issue debt or additional equity securities or obtain additional credit facilities or realize the disposition of transformed farmland and/or subsidiaries. Any issuance of equity securities could cause dilution for our shareholders. Any incurrence of additional indebtedness could increase our debt service obligations and cause us to become subject to additional restrictive operating and financial covenants, and could require that we pledge collateral to secure those borrowings, if permitted to do so. It is possible that, when we need additional cash resources, financing will not be available to us in amounts or on terms that would be acceptable to us or at all.

| C. | RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, PATENTS AND LICENSES, ETC.

With regards to our rice seed production, in our rice seed facility in Argentina, we are involved in the genetic development of new rice varieties adapted to local conditions to increase rice productivity and quality to improve both farm production as well as the manufacturing process. In connection with these efforts, we have entered into agreements with selected research and development institutions such as INTA in Argentina, FLAR and HIAAL in Colombia, EPAGRI in Brazil and Basf in Germany. In addition, our own technical team is continuously testing and developing new rice varieties. Since 2008 we have developed and released three new own varieties of rice seed to the market, , and we are currently in the final stages of releasing the fourth We have registered our own rice seed varieties with the corresponding Argentine authorities; the National Institute of Seeds (Instituto Nacional de Semillas) (INASE) and National Registry of Property of Seed Varieties (Registro Nacional de la Propiedad de Cultivares) (RNPC). In February 2014 the new rice variety named ITÁ CAABÓ 107 was released to the market.

We use both these seeds at our farms and sell them to rice farmers in Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Paraguay. We are also developing, in collaboration with BASF, a herbicide-tolerant rice variety to assist in the control of harmful weeds.

In addition to traditional R&D activities, since we are constantly looking to improve efficiencies in each of our businesses, we are also constantly researching and analyzing all the available technologies that could be applied in our operations. In addition, we do not only select the best technologies and techniques, but we are strongly involved in their adaptation to our specific needs and local circumstances. Our internal research group is comprised of interdisciplinary teams (agronomists, veterinarians, industrial engineers, technicians, finance and commercial). The group offers support to all business lines and through different levels, from the optimization of current operations, evaluation of new technologies, development of new products, to the assessment of a whole new production system.

These grants were made under the Adecoagro Amended and Restated Restricted Share and Restricted Stock Unit Plan, as amended. See “—E. Share Ownership—Share Options and Restricted Share and Restricted Stock Unit Plan.”Annual cash bonuses are designed to incentivize our named executive officers at a variable level of compensation based on the Company’s financial and operating performance and each executive’s individual performance. Annual executive cash bonuses and stock unit awards are impacted by seniority and individual executive performance. 70% of variable performance is related to achievement of financial targets consisting of Adjusted EBITDA, Net Income, Adjusted Net Cash Flow from Operations, Cash Earnings and Return on Invested Capital. The remaining 30% is based on the achievement of individual objectives and by evaluating each executive’s level of proficiency in the following competencies: general characteristics, teamwork, professional competencies, environmental and social commitment, problem solving and thinking skills and managerial skills. In the past, actual bonus amounts have been determined shortly after fiscal year end. Our Chief Executive Officer presents the final calculation of the annual cash bonuses for our named executives to the Compensation Committee of the board of directors. The Compensation Committee then reviews actual Company and individual performance, and determines the amount payable consistent with the attainment of such individual’s performance based on the above criteria.

We do not pay or set aside any amounts for pension, retirement or other similar benefits for our officers and directors.

Share Options and Restricted Share and Restricted Stock Unit Plan

Adecoagro/IFH 2004 Stock Incentive Option Plan and Adecoagro/IFH 2007/2008 Equity Incentive Plan

The Company maintains the Adecoagro/IFH 2004 Incentive Option Plan (formerly, the International Farmland Holdings, LLC 2004 Incentive Option Plan, and referred to herein as the “2004 Plan”) and the Adecoagro/IFH 2007/2008 Equity Incentive Plan (formerly, the International Farmland Holdings, LLC 2007/2008 Equity Incentive Plan, and referred to herein as the “2007/2008 Plan”). The 2004 Plan and the 2007/2008 Plan are collectively referred to herein as the “Option Plans.” Initially, the Option Plans provided for the grant of options to purchase ordinary units of IFH. In connection with the Reorganization, the Option Plans were amended and restated to provide for the grant of options to purchase ordinary shares of the Company, and all then-outstanding options to purchase IFH ordinary units were converted into options to purchase the Company’s ordinary shares.

The number of ordinary shares reserved and available for issuance under the 2004 Plan and the 2007/2008 Plan are 1,641,085 and 1,658,002, respectively. Shares subject to awards that become forfeited, cancelled, expired, withheld upon exercise, reacquired by the Company prior to vesting or otherwise terminated will again be available for future awards under the Option Plans.

Administration and Eligibility

The Option Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s board of directors (the “Committee”). The Committee has general authority to, among other things, select individuals for participation, determine the time and amount of grants, and interpret the plans and awards. The Committee determines the vesting requirements of the awards. The Option Plans require that the exercise price of any future grants shall be no less than the greater of the fair market value of our ordinary shares on the date of grant and the par value per ordinary share.

Individuals eligible to receive options under the 2004 Plan include officers and employees, and under the 2007/2008 Plan include officers, employees, directors, prospective employees and consultants.

Amendment and Termination

The board of directors may amend or terminate the Option Plans in its discretion, and the Committee may amend any outstanding options in its discretion, except participant consent will be needed if a participant’s rights are adversely affected. If not previously terminated by the board of directors, the Option Plans will terminate on the 10th anniversary of its adoption. The 2004 Plan was amended to extend the term to 20th anniversary of its adoption.

Granted Options

Under the 2004 Plan, as of December 31, 2015, options to purchase 2,061,027 ordinary shares were granted and the weighted average exercise price of all granted options was $6.67. Under the 2007/2008 Plan, as of the same date, options to purchase 1,700,675 ordinary shares were granted, and the weighted average exercise price of all granted options was $13.07.

Outstanding options under the 2004 Plan generally vest in three equal installments on the first three anniversaries of the date of grant, and options under the 2007/2008 Plan generally vest in four equal installments on the first four anniversaries of the date of grant. Vesting under each of the Option Plans is generally subject to the participant’s continued service as of each applicable vesting date, and all options terminate 10 years from the date of grant.

Adecoagro S.A. Amended and Restated Restricted Share and Restricted Stock Unit Plan

On November 11, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the amendment and restatement of the Adecoagro S.A. Restricted Share Plan, now known as the Amended and Restated Restricted Share and Restricted Stock Unit Plan (the “Plan).

The Plan provides for awards of restricted shares or restricted stock units to employees, officers, members of the board of directors and other service providers of the Company. The purpose of the Plan is to further align the interests of participants with those of the shareholders by providing participants with long-term incentive compensation opportunities tied to the performance of the Company’s ordinary shares.

On March 17, 2015 the Plan was amended (known as the “Second Amended and Restated Restricted Share and Unit Plan”) to increase the number of common shares available for issuance with respect to which awards may be made by 673,663 additional common shares and to provide for the option to receive restricted units in lieu of cash in connection with the payment of compensation to directors of the Company. Further, on March 15, 2016 and March 14, 2017, the Plan was amended (now known as the “Third Amended and Restated Restricted Share and Unit Plan”) by the Board of Directors to increase the number of common shares available for issuance with respect to which awards may be made by an aggregate 990,040 common shares. Currently, the maximum number of common shares with respect to which awards may be made under the Plan is equal to 3,464,741 common shares inclusive of such Shares that are subject to outstanding grants of Awards. To the extent any award under the Plan is canceled, expired, forfeited, surrendered settled in cash, or otherwise terminated without delivery of shares the shares retained by or returned to the Company will again be available for future awards under the Plan. The shares available for issuance as well as outstanding awards under the Plan are subject to adjustment in the event of a reorganization, stock split, merger or similar change. Under the Plan, as of the date of this annual report, 2,210,768 ordinary shares had been issued to directors, senior management and employees.

Administration and Eligibility

The Plan is administered by the Committee. The Committee has general authority to grant awards, determine the recipients of awards and prescribe the terms of awards, as well as authority to interpret and apply the terms of the Plan and individual awards. The Committee determines the amount and the vesting requirements of the awards.

Terms of Awards

A grant of restricted shares represents ordinary shares that are issued subject to vesting requirements and transfer restrictions, as determined by the Committee in its discretion. The vesting requirements may be based on the continued employment or service of the participant for a specified time period or on the attainment of specified business performance goals established by the Committee. Subject to the transfer restrictions and vesting requirements of the award, the participant will have the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including voting rights and the right to receive dividends.

The number of restricted shares or restricted stock units awarded to individuals each year will be based on Company performance. Once awarded, the restricted shares or restricted stock units are subject to a service-based vesting schedule and vest in three equal annual installments on the first three anniversaries of the date of grant, subject only to the participant’s continued service to the Company as of each applicable vesting date. Restricted stock units are payable following the vesting of an award in shares.

Amendment and Termination

The board of directors may amend, modify, suspend or terminate the Plan in its discretion, except participant consent will be needed if participants’ rights are adversely affected. If not previously terminated by the board of directors, the Plan will terminate on the 10th anniversary of its adoption.

Share Options and Restricted Shares

Agriculture Partnership Agreements

Some of our agriculture partnership agreements are entered into with certain minority shareholders of the Company, for a total of 9,946.66 hectares. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2012 and 2011, we recorded other net amount (payables) or receivables for payments in advance amounting to $(0.5) million, ($0.5) million and $(0.3) million, respectively, and recognized expenses amounting to $4.2 million, $3.1 million and $3.3 million, respectively, in connection with these agreements.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Reorganization, we entered into a registration rights agreement providing holders of our issued and outstanding common shares on January 28, 2011 (such holders being hereinafter referred to as the “Existing Investors” and such common shares subject to the agreement being hereinafter referred to as the “Registrable Securities”) with certain rights to require us to register their shares for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”). Pursuant to the agreement, if holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities notify us, no earlier than 180 days after the effective date of the registration statement previously filed by us on Form F-1, we are required, subject to certain limitations, to file a registration statement under the Securities Act in order to register the resale of the amount of ordinary shares requested by such holders. The underwriters in such an offering will have the right, subject to certain limitations, to limit the number of shares included in such registration. The Existing Investors have the right to require us to file one such registration. In addition, if we propose to register any of our securities under the Securities Act, Existing Investors are entitled to notice of such registration and are entitled to certain “piggyback” registration rights allowing such holders to include their common shares in such registration, subject to certain restrictions. Furthermore, Existing Investors may require us to register the resale of all or a portion of their shares on a registration statement on Form F-3 once we are eligible to use Form F-3. In an underwritten offering, the underwriters have the right, subject to certain restrictions, to limit the number of Registrable Securities Existing Investors may include.

Shelf Registration Statement on Form F-3

The Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form F-3 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on September 23, 2013, which was declared effective by the SEC on December 23, 2013. Pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, certain shareholders may offer and sell from time to time, in one or more offerings, up to 55,821,281 common shares. The registration of the common shares for disposition by the principal shareholders does not mean that the principal shareholders will actually offer or sell any of the shares. The specifics of future offerings, if any, including the names of participating shareholders, the amount of shares to be offered and the offering price, will be determined at the time of any such offerings and will be described in a prospectus supplement filed at the time of any such offerings.

On March 21, 2016, we completed an underwritten secondary offering of 12.0 million common shares of Adecoagro offered by our shareholders Quantum Partners LP and Geosor Corpration, at a price per share to the public of $11.70 pursuant to the effective shelf registration statement described in the previous paragraph.

Legal and Administrative Proceedings

We are subject to several laws, regulations and business practices of the countries in which we operate. In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to certain contingent liabilities with respect to existing or potential claims, lawsuits and other proceedings, including those involving tax, social security, labor lawsuits and other matters. We accrue liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Currently, we are not engaged in any material litigation or arbitration and no material litigation or claims are known to us to be pending or threatened against us which, either alone or on a combined basis, may result in an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or cash flows.

In Argentina and Brazil we are engaged in several legal proceedings, including tax, social security, labor, civil, environmental, administrative and other proceedings, for which we have established provisions in an aggregate amount of $3.8 million as of December 31, 2016. In addition, there are currently certain legal proceedings pending in which we are involved for which we have not established provisions. In the opinion of our management, the ultimate disposition of any threatened or pending matters, either individually or on a combined basis, will not have a material adverse effect on our combined financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations other than as described below.

The Brazilian government filed a tax enforcement action against UMA to demand excise taxes (Imposto sobre Produtos Industrializados, or “IPI”), or a federal value-added tax on industrial products, in the amount of approximately $5.5 million. We have obtained a favorable initial decision from the lower court, which accepted our argument on procedural grounds based on the Brazilian government’s loss of its procedural right to demand the IPI debts. Currently, the case is under review by an appellate court following the appeal filed by the Brazilian government. We have not made any provision for this claim based on legal counsel’s view that the risk of an unfavorable decision in this matter is remote . If this proceeding is decided adversely to us, our results of operations and financial condition may be materially adversely affected.

José Valter Laurindo de Castilhos, Companhia Rio de Janeiro Agropecuária Ltda. and other former owners of the Rio de Janeiro and Conquista Farms have filed suit against us for the payment of a supplementary amount of approximately $29.7 million, as well as indemnity for moral and material damages, as a result of the alleged breach of the purchase agreement entered into by the parties. The lower court ruled in our favor, allowing us to keep possession of the Rio de Janeiro Farm. This decision has been appealed by Mr. Castilhos to the Superior Court of Justice (“Superior Tribunal de Justiça”). The Brazilian Superior Court of Justice determined that the case had no merit. This decision can be appealed by Mr. Castilhos. We have not made any provision for this claim based on legal counsel’s view that the risk of an unfavorable decision in this matter is remote. If this proceeding is decided adversely to us, our results of operations and financial condition may be materially adversely affected.

The INCRA conducted an investigation to determine the falsehood of the CCIR delivered to us by the former owner of Rio de Janeiro Farm (the “Farm”) back in January 2005 when we acquired the Farm. The INCRA also conducted an investigation related to the cadeia dominial of the Farm to determine the correct chain of ownership through the successive transfers of ownership of the Farm, in order to confirm that the destaque publico occurred or that the State does not have interest in claiming ownership. No irregularity was found that could jeopardize the acquisition deed or affect the ownership of the Farm.

With respect to legal proceedings in which the Company is a plaintiff, in September 2013, Marfrig Argentina S.A., (“Marfrig Argentina”), an Argentine subsidiary of Marfrig Alimentos S.A. (“Marfrig Alimentos") a Brazilian Company, notified the Group of its intention to early terminate the lease for grazing land agreement entered into with the Group in December 2009. The termination of the lease agreement was effective in the fourth quarter of 2013. The Group filed an arbitration proceeding against Marfrig Argentina and Marfrig Alimentos in 2014 seeking $23 million claiming, which include unpaid invoices for a total amount of $1.1 million and indemnification up to $22.0 million for early termination of the grazing land lease.

On September 2016, the parties settled the arbitration proceedings in the amount of US$ 9 million. As of December 31 2016 the Group collected US$ 7 million and as March 31, 2017 the Group has collected the remaining balance. This settlement, net of the unpaid invoices and other expenses resulted in an income of US$ 8.5 million for the Group.

Dividend Policy

The amount and payment of dividends will be determined by a simple majority vote at a general shareholders’ meeting, typically but not necessarily, based on the recommendation of our board of directors. All shares of our capital stock rank pari passu with respect to the payment of dividends. Pursuant to our articles of incorporation, the board of directors has the power to distribute interim dividends in accordance with applicable Luxembourg law. Dividends may be lawfully declared and paid if our net profits and distributable reserves are sufficient under Luxembourg law.

Under Luxembourg law, at least 5% of our net profits per year must be allocated to the creation of a legal reserve until such reserve has reached an amount equal to 10% of our issued share capital. If the legal reserve subsequently falls below the 10% threshold, at least 5% of the annual net profits again must be allocated toward the reserve. The legal reserve is not available for distribution.

Adecoagro is a holding company and has no material assets other than its ownership of partnership interests in Adecoagro LP SCS, in turn, is a holding entity with no material assets other than its indirect ownership of shares in operating subsidiaries in foreign countries. If we were to distribute a dividend at some point in the future, we would cause the operating subsidiaries to make distributions to Adecoagro LP SCS, which in turn would make distributions to Adecoagro in an amount sufficient to cover any such dividends.

Our subsidiaries in Argentina and Brazil are subject to certain restrictions on their ability to declare or pay dividends. See “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—B. Liquidity and Capital Resources—Indebtedness and Financial Instruments”, and also see “—Risks Related to our Business and Industries—Certain of our subsidiaries have substantial indebtedness which could impair their financial condition and decrease the amount of dividends we receive.

General

Adecoagro is a Luxembourg société anonyme (a joint stock company). The Company’s legal name is “Adecoagro S.A.” Adecoagro was incorporated on June 11, 2010 and on October 26, 2010 all the outstanding shares of Adecoagro were acquired by IFH LLC.

On October 30, 2010, the members of IFH LLC transferred pro rata approximately 98% of their membership interests in IFH LLC to Adecoagro in exchange for common shares of Adecoagro. In a series of transactions during 2012, we transferred shares of Adecoagro to certain limited partners of IFH in exchange for their residual interest in IFH, increasing our interest in IFH to approximately 100%.

On January 28, 2011, Adecoagro completed the IPO of its shares on the NYSE. The shares are traded under the symbol “AGRO.”

| 140 |

On March 27, 2015, Adecoagro commenced a series of transactions for the purpose of transfering the domicile of Adecoagro LP to Luxembourg. In connection with the Adecoagro LP redomiciliation, Adecoagro merged IFH into Adecoagro LP with Adecoagro LP as the surviving entity and Adecoagro GP S.à r.l., a société à responsibilitié limitée organized under the laws of Luxembourg, became the general partner of Adecoagro LP on April 1, 2015. Also on April 1, 2015, Adecoagro completed the redomiciliation of Adecoagro LP (Delaware) out of Delaware to Luxembourg and Adecoagro LP, without dissolution or liquidation, continued its corporate existence as Adecoagro LP S.C.S., a société en commandite simple organized under Luxembourg law, effective April 2, 2015. For a detailed description of the Adecoagro LP redomiciliation please see “Item 4. Information on the Company—A. History and Development of the Company—History. Since that date the affairs of Adecoagro LP S.C.S. have been governed by its articles of association and Luxembourg law.

Adecoagro is registered with the Luxembourg Registry of Trade and Companies under number B153681. Adecoagro has its registered office at 6 Rue Eugène Ruppert, L-2453, Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.

The corporate purpose of Adecoagro, as stated in Article 4 of our articles of incorporation (Purpose Object), is the following: The object of Adecoagro is the holding of participations, in any form whatsoever, in Luxembourg and foreign companies, or other entities or enterprises, the acquisition by purchase, subscription, or in any other manner as well as the transfer by sale, exchange or otherwise of stock, bonds, debentures, notes and other securities or rights of any kind including interests in partnerships, and the holding, acquisition, disposal, investment in any manner (in), development, licensing or sub licensing of, any patents or other intellectual property rights of any nature or origin as well as the ownership, administration, development and management of its portfolio. Adecoagro may carry out its business through branches in Luxembourg or abroad.

Adecoagro may borrow in any form and proceed to the issuance by private or public means of bonds, convertible bonds and debentures or any other securities or instruments it deems fit.

In a general fashion it may grant assistance (by way of loans, advances, guarantees or securities or otherwise) to companies or other enterprises in which Adecoagro has an interest or which form part of the group of companies to which Adecoagro. belongs or any entity as Adecoagro may deem fit (including up stream or cross stream), take any controlling, management, administrative and/or supervisory measures and carry out any operation which it may deem useful in the accomplishment and development of its purposes.

Finally, Adecoagro can perform all commercial, technical and financial or other operations, connected directly or indirectly in all areas in order to facilitate the accomplishment of its purpose.

Share Capital

As of December 31, 2016 our issued share capital amounted to $183,572,722.50, represented by 122,381,815 shares in issue (of which 1,238,318 were treasury shares) with a nominal value of $1.50 each. All issued shares are fully paid up.

As of December 31, 2016 there were 121,600,229 common shares outstanding.

We have an authorized unissued share capital of $3,000,000,000, including the issued share capital as of December 31, 2016 of $183,572,722.50 and are authorized to issue up to 2,000,000,000 shares of a nominal value of $1.50 each (taking into account the shares issued as of December 31, 2016) out of such authorized share capital. Our unissued share capital as of December 31, 2016 is $2,816,427,277.50.

Our articles of incorporation authorize the board of directors to issue shares within the limits of the authorized un-issued share capital at such times and on such terms as the board or its delegates may decide for a period ending on April 20, 2012 (unless it is extended, amended or renewed and we currently intend to seek renewals and/or extensions as required from time to time). Accordingly, the board may issue shares up to the number of authorized un-issued shares pursuant to the above until the latter date against contributions in cash, contributions in kind or by way of incorporation of available reserves at such times and on such terms and conditions, including the issue price, as the board of directors or its delegate(s) may in its or their discretion resolve and the general meeting of shareholders has waived and has authorized the board of directors to waive, suppress or limit, any pre-emptive subscription rights of shareholders provided for by law to the extent it deems such waiver, suppression or limitation advisable for any issue or issues of shares within the authorized share capital. Further, on April 19, 2017 the extraordinary meeting of shareholders reduced such authorization to 5 years; this is, until April 20, 2021, in line with the amendments to the Luxembourg law of August 10, 2015 on commercial companies as amended by the law of August 10, 2016.

| 141 |

Our authorized share capital is determined (and may be increased, reduced or extended) by our articles of incorporation, as amended from time to time, by the decision of our shareholders at an extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting with the necessary quorum and majority provided for the amendment of our articles of incorporation. See “—Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation” and “—General Meeting of Shareholders”.

Under Luxembourg law, existing shareholders benefit from a preemptive subscription right on the issuance of shares for cash consideration. However, our shareholders have, in accordance with Luxembourg law, authorized the board to suppress, waive or limit any preemptive subscription rights of shareholders provided by law to the extent the board deems such suppression, waiver or limitation advisable for any issuance or issuances of shares within the scope of our authorized unissued share capital. Such shares may be issued above, at or below market value (down to zero) as well as by way of incorporation of available reserves and premium for a period ending on April 2021 (unless it is extended, amended or renewed and we currently intend to seek renewals and/or extensions as required from time to time). Further, on April 19, 2017 the extraordinary meeting of shareholders reduced the authorized un-issued share capital and related authorizations to five years; this is, until April 20, 2021, in line with the amendments to the Luxembourg law of August 10, 2015 on commercial companies as amended by the law of August 10, 2016.

Form and Transfer of shares

Our shares are issued in registered form only and are freely transferable. Luxembourg law does not impose any limitations on the rights of Luxembourg or non-Luxembourg residents to hold or vote our shares.

Under Luxembourg law, the ownership of registered shares is evidenced by the inscription of the name of the shareholder, the number of shares held by him or her in the register of shares of the Company. Each transfer of shares in the share register shall be effected by written declaration of transfer to be recorded in the register of shares, such declaration to be dated and signed by the transferor and the transferee, or by their duly appointed agents. We may accept and enter into the share register any transfer effected pursuant to an agreement or agreements between the transferor and the transferee, true and complete copies of which have been delivered to us.

We may appoint registrars in different jurisdictions, each of whom may maintain a separate register for the shares entered in such register. We have appointed Computershare as our New York registrar and transfer agent. The holders of our shares may elect to be entered in one of the registers and to be transferred from time to time from one register to another register provided that our board of directors may however impose transfer restrictions for shares that are registered, listed, quoted, dealt in, or have been placed in certain jurisdictions in compliance with the requirements applicable therein. The transfer to the register kept at the Company’s registered office may always be requested by a shareholder.

In addition, our articles of incorporation provide that our shares may be held through a securities settlement system or a professional depository of securities. Shares held in such manner have the same rights and obligations as shares recorded in our shareholder register(s) (subject to complying with certain formalities). Shares held through a securities settlement system or a professional depository of securities may be transferred in accordance with customary procedures for the transfer of securities in book-entry form.

Issuance of Shares

Pursuant to Luxembourg law of August 10, 1915 on commercial companies as amended by the law of 10 August 2016, the issuance of shares in Adecoagro requires the approval by the general meeting of shareholders at the quorum and majority provided for the amendment of our articles of incorporation. See “—Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation” and “—General Meeting of Shareholders”. The general meeting of shareholders may however approve an authorized unissued share capital and authorize the board of directors to issue shares up to the maximum amount of such authorized unissued share capital for a maximum period of five years. The general meeting may amend, renew or extend such authorized share capital and authorization to the board of directors to issue shares.

| 142 |

We have currently an authorized unissued share capital of $3,000,000,000, including the issued share capital as of December 31, 2015 of $183,572,722.50, and are authorized to issue up to 2,000,000,000 shares of a nominal value of $1.50 each (taking into account the shares already issued) out of such authorized share capital. As of December 31, 2015 the un-issued share capital was $2,816,427,277.50. Our board has been authorized to issue shares within the limits of the authorized un-issued share capital at such times and on such terms as the board or its delegates may decide for a period ending on April 20, 2021 (unless it is extended, amended or renewed and we currently intend to seek renewals and/or extensions as required from time to time). Further, on April 19, 2017 the extraordinary meeting of shareholders reduced the authorized un-issued share capital and related authorizations to 5 years; until April 20, 2021, in line with the amendments to the Luxembourg law of August 10, 1915 on commercial companies as amended by the law of August 10, 2016. Accordingly, the board may issue shares up to the total number of authorized un-issued shares until the latter date against contributions in cash, contributions in kind or by way of incorporation of available reserves at such times and on such terms and conditions, including the issue price, as the board of directors or its delegate(s) may in its or their discretion resolve while waiving, suppressing or limiting, any pre-emptive subscription rights of shareholders provided for by law to the extent it deems such waiver, suppression or limitation advisable for any issue or issues of shares within the authorized share capital.

Our articles provide that no fractional shares may be issued.

Our shares have no conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common shares.

Preemptive Rights

Unless limited or cancelled by the board of directors as described above, holders of our shares have a pro rata preemptive right to subscribe for any new shares issued for cash consideration. Our articles provide that, in the event of an increase of the issued share capital by the board of directors within the limits of the authorized un-issued share capital, preemptive rights can be waived, suppressed or limited by the board of directors for a period ending on April 20, 2021. On April 19, 2017 the extraordinary meeting of shareholders reduced such authorization to 5 years; until April 20, 2021, in line with the amendments to the Luxembourg law of August 10, 1915 on commercial companies as amended by the law of August 10, 2016.

Repurchase of Shares

We cannot subscribe for our own shares.

We may, however, repurchase issued shares or have another person repurchase issued shares for our account, subject in particular to the following conditions:

| • | the prior authorization of the general meeting of shareholders (at the quorum and majority for ordinary resolutions), which authorization sets forth the terms and conditions of the proposed repurchase and in particular the maximum number of shares to be repurchased, the duration of the period for which the authorization is given (which may not exceed five years) and, in the case of repurchase for consideration, the minimum and maximum consideration per share, must have been obtained;

| • | the repurchase may not reduce our net assets on a non-consolidated basis to a level below the aggregate of the issued share capital and the reserves that we must maintain pursuant to Luxembourg law or its articles of incorporation; and

| • | only fully paid up shares may be repurchased.

The general meeting of shareholders has authorized that the Company, and/or any wholly-owned subsidiary (and/or any person acting on their behalf), may purchase, acquire, receive or hold shares in the Company under article 49-2 of the Luxembourg law of August 10, 1915, from time to time up to 20% of the issued share capital, on the following terms and on such terms as referred to below and as shall further be determined by the board of directors of the Company, such authorization being valid (subject to renewal) for a period of five years from January 10, 2011. Such period was extended in the extraordinary meeting of shareholders held on April 20, 2016 for five more years, ending on April 20, 2021.

Acquisitions may be made in any manner including without limitation, by tender or other offer(s), buyback program(s), over the stock exchange or in privately negotiated transactions or in any other manner as determined by the board of directors (including derivative transactions or transactions having the same or similar economic effect than an acquisition).

| 143 |

In the case of acquisitions for value:

(i) in the case of acquisitions other than in the circumstances set forth under (ii), for a net purchase price being (x) no less than fifty per cent of the lowest stock price and (y) no more than fifty per cent above the highest stock price, in each case being the closing price, as reported by the New York City edition of the Wall Street Journal, or, if not reported therein, any other authoritative source to be selected by the board of directors of the Company (hereafter, the closing price), over the ten (10) trading days preceding the date of the purchase (or as the case may be the date of the commitment to the transaction);

(ii) in case of a tender offer (or if deemed appropriate by the board of directors, a buyback program),

a. in case of a formal offer being published, for a set net purchase price or a purchase price range, each time within the following parameters: no less than fifty per cent of the lowest stock price and (y) no more than fifty per cent above the highest stock price, in each case being the closing price over the ten (10) trading days preceding the publication date, provided however that if the stock exchange price during the offer period fluctuates by more than 10%, the board of directors may adjust the offer price or range to such fluctuations;

b. in case a public request for sell offers is made, a price range may be set (and revised by the board of directors as deemed appropriate) provided that acquisitions may be made at a price which is no less than fifty per cent of the lowest stock price and (y) no more than fifty per cent above the highest stock price, in each case being the closing price over a period determined by the board of directors provided that such period may not start more than five (5) trading days before the sell offer start date of the relevant offer and may not end after the last day of the relevant sell offer period.

In addition, pursuant to Luxembourg law the board of directors may repurchase shares without the prior approval of the general meeting of shareholders if necessary to prevent serious and imminent harm to us or if the acquisition of shares has been made in view of the distribution thereof to the employees.

A share repurchase program was approved by the board of directors of the Company on September 12, 2013 to acquire up to 5% of the total outstanding share capital of the Company to be held as treasury shares (the “Share Repurchase Program”). The Share Repurchase Program was implemented in compliance with the authorization granted by the general meeting of shareholders of the Company, any applicable law, rules or regulations described above and the following limits approved by the board of directors of the Company. The Share Repurchase Program was approved for a period of 12 months from September 23, 2014 (the date of its announcement) or until reaching the maximum number of shares authorized under the Share Repurchase Program, whichever occurs first. The Share Repurchase Program was renewed by decision of the Board of Directors on August 11, 2015 and on August 9, 2016 for an additional period of 12 months, ending on September 23, 2017 or until reaching the maximum number of shares authorized under the Program, whichever occurs first. In April 4, 2017, the board of directors amended the Share Repurchase Program to include repurchases under Open Market Transactions, in reliance on the “safe harbour” from liability for manipulation provided by Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act and in privately negotiated transactions.

Capital Reduction

The articles of incorporation provide that the issued share capital may be reduced, subject to the approval by the general meeting of shareholders at the quorum and majority provided for the amendment of our articles of incorporation. See “—Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation” and “—General Meeting of Shareholders”.

General Meeting of Shareholders

In accordance with Luxembourg law and our articles of incorporation, any regularly constituted general meeting of shareholders of Adecoagro represents the entire body of shareholders of the Company. It shall have the broadest powers to order, carry out or ratify acts relating to the operations of the Company.

The annual general meeting of shareholders of Adecoagro as well as any other meetings of shareholders shall be held in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg at such place and time as indicated in the notice of the meeting.

| 144 |

Each of our shares entitles the holder thereof to attend our general meeting of shareholders, either in person or by proxy, to address the general meeting of shareholders, and to exercise voting rights, subject to the provisions of our articles of incorporation. Each share entitles the holder to one vote at a general meeting of shareholders. There is no minimum shareholding required to be able to attend or vote at a general meeting of shareholders.

A shareholder may act at any general meeting of shareholders by appointing another person (who need not be a shareholder) as his proxy, which proxy shall be in writing and comply with such requirements as determined by our board with respect to the attendance to the general meeting, and proxy forms in order to enable shareholders to exercise their right to vote. All proxies must be received by us (or our agents) no later than the day preceding the fifth (5th) working day before the date of the general meeting except if our board of directors decides to change such time frame.

Our articles of incorporation provide that in the case of shares held through the operator of a securities settlement system or depository, a holder of such shares wishing to attend a general meeting of shareholders must receive from such operator or depository a certificate certifying the number of shares recorded in the relevant account on the blocking date and certifying that the shares in the account shall be blocked until the close of the general meeting. Such certificates should be submitted to us no later than the day preceding the fifth working day before the date of the general meeting unless our board fixes a different period.

Our board of directors may determine a date preceding a general meeting as the record date for admission to such general meeting. When convening a general meeting of shareholders, we will publish the convening notice (which must be published at least fifteen days before the meeting) in the Recueil Électronique des Sociétés et Association, and in a Luxembourg newspaper and in the case the shares of the Company are listed on a regulated market, in accordance with the publicity requirements of such regulated market applicable to the Company. If all of the shareholders are present or represented at a general meeting of shareholders, the general meeting may be held without prior notice or publication. These convening notices must contain the agenda of the meeting and set out the conditions for attendance and representation at the meeting.

All materials relating to a general meeting of shareholders (including the notice) will be available at the website of Adecoagro at www.adecoagro.com and will be filed with the SEC on Form 6-K. The information on our website is not incorporated by reference in, and does not constitute a part of, this annual report.

Luxembourg law provides that the board of directors is obliged to convene a general meeting of shareholders if shareholders representing, in the aggregate, 10% of the issued share capital so require in writing with an indication of the agenda. In such case, the general meeting of shareholders must be held within one month of the request. If the requested general meeting of shareholders is not held within one month, shareholders representing, in the aggregate, 10% of the issued share capital, may petition the competent president of the district court in Luxembourg to have a court appointee convene the meeting. Luxembourg law provides that shareholders representing, in the aggregate, 10% of the issued share capital may request that additional items be added to the agenda of a general meeting of shareholders. That request must be made by registered mail sent to the registered office at least five days before the holding of the general meeting of shareholders.

Voting Rights

Each share of our shares entitles the holder thereof to one vote at a general meeting of shareholders.

Luxembourg law distinguishes between “ordinary” general meetings of shareholders and “extraordinary” general meetings of shareholders.

Extraordinary general meetings of shareholders are convened to resolve in particular upon an amendment to the articles of incorporation and certain other limited matters including those described below and are generally subject to the quorum and majority requirements described below. All other general meetings of shareholders are ordinary general meetings of shareholders.

Ordinary General Meetings of Shareholders. At an ordinary general meeting of shareholders there is no quorum requirement, and resolutions are adopted by a simple majority of the votes validly cast, irrespective of the number of shares represented. Abstentions are not considered “votes”.

| 145 |

Extraordinary General Meetings of Shareholders. An extraordinary general meeting of shareholders convened for the purpose of in particular (a) an increase or decrease of the authorized or issued share capital, (b) a limitation or exclusion of preemptive rights, (c) approving a legal merger or de-merger of Adecoagro, (d) dissolution of the Company or (e) an amendment of the articles of incorporation must generally have a quorum of at least 50% of our issued share capital except in limited circumstances provided for by Luxembourg law. If such quorum is not reached, the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders may be reconvened, pursuant to appropriate notification procedures, at a later date with no quorum requirement applying.

Irrespective of whether the proposed actions described in the preceding paragraph will be subject to a vote at the first or a subsequent extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, such actions are generally subject to the approval of at least two-thirds of the votes validly cast at such extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (except in limited circumstances provided for by Luxembourg law). Abstentions are not considered “votes”.

Appointment and Removal of Directors. Members of the board of directors may be elected by simple majority of the votes validly cast at any general meeting of shareholders. Under the articles of incorporation, all directors are elected for a period of up to three years with such possible extension as provided therein provided however the directors shall be elected on a staggered basis, with one third (1/3) of the directors being elected each year and provided further that such three year term may be exceeded by a period up to the annual general meeting held following the third anniversary of the appointment. Any director may be removed with or without cause by a simple majority vote at any general meeting of shareholders. The articles of incorporation provide that in case of a vacancy the board of directors may co-opt a director.

Neither Luxembourg law nor our articles of incorporation contain any restrictions as to the voting of our shares by non-Luxembourg residents.

Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation

Luxembourg law requires an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders to resolve upon an amendment to the articles of incorporation. The agenda of the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders must indicate the proposed amendments to the articles of incorporation.

An extraordinary general meeting of shareholders convened for the purpose of amending the articles of incorporation must generally have a quorum of at least 50% of our issued share capital. If such quorum is not reached, the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders may be reconvened at a later date with no quorum according to the appropriate notification procedures. Irrespective of whether the proposed amendment will be subject to a vote at the first or a subsequent extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, the amendment is generally subject to the approval of at least two-thirds of the votes cast at such extraordinary general meeting of shareholders.

Any resolutions to amend the articles of incorporation must be taken before a Luxembourg notary and such amendments must be published in accordance with Luxembourg law.

Merger and Division

A merger by absorption whereby a Luxembourg company, after its dissolution without liquidation transfers to another company all of its assets and liabilities in exchange for the issuance to the shareholders of the company being acquired of shares in the acquiring company, or a merger effected by transfer of assets to a newly incorporated company, must, in principle, be approved by an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders of the Luxembourg company to be held before a notary. Similarly the de-merger of a Luxembourg company is generally subject to the approval by an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders.

Liquidation

In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Adecoagro, the assets remaining after allowing for the payment of all liabilities will be paid out to the shareholders pro rata to their respective shareholdings. The decision to voluntarily liquidate, dissolve or wind-up require the approval by an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders of the Company to be held before a notary.

| 146 |

No Appraisal Rights

Neither Luxembourg law nor our articles of incorporation provide for any appraisal rights of dissenting shareholders.

Distributions

Subject to Luxembourg law, each share is entitled to participate equally in distributions if and when if declared by the general meeting of shareholders out of funds legally available for such purposes. Pursuant to the articles of incorporation, the general meeting of shareholders may approve distributions and the board of directors may declare interim distribution, to the extent permitted by Luxembourg law.

Declared and unpaid distributions held by us for the account of the shareholders shall not bear interest. Under Luxembourg law, claims for unpaid distributions will lapse in our favor five years after the date such distribution has been declared.

Annual Accounts

Each year the board of directors must prepare annual accounts, that is, an inventory of the assets and liabilities of Adecoagro together with a balance sheet and a profit and loss account. The board of directors must also prepare, each year, consolidated accounts and management reports on the annual accounts and consolidated accounts. The annual accounts, the consolidated accounts, the management report and the auditor’s reports must be available for inspection by shareholders at the registered office of Adecoagro at least 8 calendar days prior to the date of the annual general meeting of shareholders.

The annual accounts and the consolidated accounts, after approval by the annual general meeting of shareholders, will need to be filed with the Luxembourg registry of trade and companies within one month after the approval and no more than seven months after the close of the financial year.

Information Rights

Luxembourg law gives shareholders limited rights to inspect certain corporate records 8 calendar days prior to the date of the annual general meeting of shareholders, including the annual accounts with the list of directors and auditors, the consolidated accounts, the notes to the annual accounts and the consolidated accounts, a list of shareholders whose shares are not fully paid-up, the management reports, the auditor’s report and in case of amendments to the articles, the text of the proposed amendments and the draft of the resulting consolidated articles.

Any registered shareholder is entitled to receive a copy of the annual accounts, the consolidated accounts, the auditor’s reports and the management reports free of charge 8 calendar days prior to the date of the annual general meeting of shareholders upon request.

Under Luxembourg law, it is generally accepted that a shareholder has the right to receive responses to questions concerning items on the agenda for a general meeting of shareholders, if such responses are necessary or useful for a shareholder to make an informed decision concerning such agenda item, unless a response to such questions could be detrimental to our interests.

One or more shareholders representing at least 10% of the share capital or 10% of the votes attached to all existing securities may ask the board of directors written questions on one or more management operations (opérations de gestion) of the company and, as the case may be, of subsidiaries it controls. In the latter case, the request must be assessed in view of the interest of the companies included within the consolidation. In the absence of response within a period of one month, these shareholders may apply to the court for the appointment of experts instructed to submit a report on the management operations targeted in the question.

Board of Directors

The management of Adecoagro is vested in a board of directors. Our articles of incorporation provide that the board must comprise at least three members and no more than eleven members. The number of directors is determined and the directors are appointed at the general meeting of shareholders (except in case of a vacancy in the office of a director because of death, retirement, resignation, dismissal, removal or otherwise, the remaining directors may fill such vacancy and appoint a successor in accordance with applicable Luxembourg law).

| 147 |

The directors are appointed for a period of up to three years; provided however the directors shall be elected on a staggered basis, with one-third of the directors being elected each year and provided further that such three year term may be exceeded by a period up to the annual general meeting held following the third anniversary of the appointment. Directors may be removed with or without cause (ad nutum) by the general meeting of shareholders by a simple majority of votes cast at a general meeting of shareholders. The directors shall be eligible for re-election indefinitely. The general shareholders’ meeting may dismiss one or more directors at any time, with or without cause by a resolution passed by simple majority vote, irrespective of the number of shares present at such general shareholders’ meeting.

Currently our board has 11 members (see “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—A. Directors and Senior Management—Board of Directors”). The board meets as often as required by our interests.

A majority of the members of the board in office (and able to vote) present or represented at a board meeting constitutes a quorum, and resolutions are adopted by the simple majority vote of the board members present or represented (and able to vote). The board may also take decisions by means of resolutions in writing signed by all directors.

Our board may delegate the daily management of the business of Adecoagro, as well as the power to represent Adecoagro in its day to day business, to individual directors or other officers or agents of the Company (with power to sub-delegate). In addition the board of directors may delegate the daily management of the business of Adecoagro, as well as the power to represent Adecoagro in its day to day business to an executive or other committee as it deems fit. The board of directors shall determine the conditions of appointment and dismissal as well as the remuneration and powers of any person or persons so appointed.

Currently the board of directors has appointed the officers listed under “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—A. Directors and Senior Management.”

The board of directors may (but shall not be obliged to unless required by law) establish one or more committees (including without limitation an audit committee, a risk and commercial committee, a strategy committee and a compensation committee) and for which it shall, if one or more of such committees are set up, appoint the members (who may be but do not need to be board members), determine the purpose, powers and authorities as well as the procedures and such other rules as may be applicable thereto (subject as to the audit committee as set forth therein).

Currently our board has set up an audit committee. See “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—C. Board Practices.” Our board has set up a compensation committee. See “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—C. Board Practices.” Our board has set up a risk and commercial committee. See “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—C. Board Practices.” Our board has set up a strategy committee. See “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—C. Board Practices.”

No director or member of any committee shall, solely as a result of being a director, be prevented from contracting with us, either with regard to his tenure of any office or place of profit or as vendor, purchaser or in any other manner whatsoever, nor shall any contract in which any director or member of any committee is in any way interested be liable to be avoided, in account of his position as director or member of any committee nor shall any director or member of any committee who is so interested be liable to account for us or the shareholders for any remuneration, profit or other benefit realized by the contract by reason of the director or member of any committee holding that office or of the fiduciary relationship thereby established.

Any director or, as the case may be, member of any committee having a direct or indirect interest in a transaction conflicting with our interest, which has to be considered by the board of directors or the relevant committee, as the case may be, shall be obliged to advise the board or the committee thereof and to cause a record of his statement to be included in the minutes of the meeting. He may not take part in these deliberations nor in the vote of the resolution. At the next following general meeting or board of directors’ meeting, before any resolution is put to vote, a special report shall be made on any transactions in which any of the directors or members of any committee may have had an interest conflicting with our interest.

| 148 |

No shareholding qualification for directors is required.

Directors and other officers, past and present, are entitled to indemnification from us to the fullest extent permitted by law against liability and all expenses reasonably incurred by him in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding in which he is involved by virtue of his being or having been a director. We may purchase and maintain for any director or other officer insurance against any such liability.

No indemnification shall be provided against any liability to us or our shareholders by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his office. No indemnification will be provided in the event of a settlement (unless approved by a court of competent jurisdiction or the board), nor will indemnification be provided in proceedings in which that director or officer has been finally adjudicated to have acted in bad faith and not in the interest of the Company.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

The transfer agent and registrar for our common shares is Computershare. The holders of our shares may elect to be entered in one of the registers and to be transferred from time to time from one register to another register provided that our board of directors may however impose transfer restrictions for shares that are registered, listed, quoted, dealt in, or have been placed in certain jurisdictions in compliance with the requirements applicable therein. The transfer to the register kept in Luxembourg may always be requested by a shareholder.

| D. | EXCHANGE CONTROLS

In 1991, the Argentine Convertibility Law established a fixed exchange rate according to which the Argentine Central Bank was statutorily obliged to sell U.S. dollars to any individual at a fixed exchange rate of Ps.1.00 per $1.00. In 2001 Argentina experienced a period of severe political, economic and social crisis, and on January 6, 2002, the Argentine congress enacted the Public Emergency Law abandoning more than ten years of fixed Peso-U.S. dollar parity. After devaluing the Peso and setting the official exchange rate at Ps.1.40 per $1.00, on February 11, 2002, the Argentine government allowed the Peso to float. The shortage of U.S. dollars and their heightened demand caused the Peso to further devaluate significantly in the first half of 2002. The Argentine Central Bank may indirectly affect this market through its active participation. Due to the deterioration of the economic and financial situation in Argentina during 2001 and 2002, in addition to the abandonment of the Peso-U.S. dollar parity, the Argentine government established a number of monetary and currency exchange control measures, including a partial freeze on bank deposits, the suspension on payments of its sovereign foreign debt, restrictions on the transfer of funds out of, or into, Argentina, and the creation of the Single Free Foreign Exchange Market (“Mercado Único y Libre de Cambios”, or the “FX Market”) through which all purchases and sales of foreign currency must be made. Although since 2003 these restrictions have been progressively eased to some extent, as a consequence of the increase of the demand in Argentina for U.S. dollars and the capital flow out of Argentina, the Argentine government imposed during 2011 some additional restrictions on the transfer of funds from Argentina and reduced the time required to comply with the mandatory transfer of funds into Argentina.

Most foreign exchange restrictions and restrictions on transfer of funds into and out of Argentina that had been enacted since 2011, were lifted by the Macri administration in December 2016, reestablishing Argentine residents’ rights to purchase and remit outside of Argentina foreign currency with no maximum amount and without specific allocation or prior approval.

In December 2015, in line with the economic reforms implemented by the new administration, the Argentine Ministry of Treasury issued Resolution No. 3/2015 which eliminated the requirement to maintain a registered, non-transferable and non-interest bearing deposit by reducing the amount of the deposit from 30% to 0%. Consequently, such deposit is no longer applicable to, among other transactions, foreign financial debts, inflows of funds of non-residents and repatriations by residents. In addition, pursuant to Resolution No. 1-E/2017 dated January 5, 2017, the minimum period of time (120 days) that proceeds from new financial indebtedness (incurred by residents granted by foreign creditors) and portfolio investments of non residents were required to remain in Argentina pursuant to Resolution No. 3/2015 was reduced to zero. The Argentine Ministry of Treasury is entitled to modify the percentage of and period that funds must be kept in Argentina when a change in the macroeconomic situation so requires.

| 149 |

In addition, on August 6, 2016, the Argentine Central Bank issued Communication “A” 6037, which repealed most of the restrictions to purchase currency and those relating to the inflow and outflow of funds into and from Argentina (except for the obligation of Argentine exporters of goods and services to repatriate to the FX Market foreign currency proceeds from exportation transactions, such as receivables relating to the exportation of goods, which shall also be settled through the foreign exchange market).

The following is a description of the main aspects of the Argentine Central Bank’s regulations relating to the inflows and outflows of funds into and from Argentina:

Inflows

Pursuant to Communication “A” 5265 issued by the Argentine Central Bank, any financial debts incurred with foreign creditors by both the non-financial and financial private sector had to be settled through the foreign exchange market. This requirement was eliminated by Communication “A” 6037, which abrogated Communication “A” 5850, dated December 17, 2015, allowing Argentine borrowers to keep proceeds outside of Argentina and eliminated the requirement to repatriate and exchange proceeds into pesos when repaying debts through the MULC.

Pursuant to Resolution No. 1-E/2017, the minimum period of 120 calendar days, imposed by Resolution No. 3/2015, that proceeds received from foreign financial debt had to be kept in Argentina was reduced to zero.

Outflows

Communication “A” 6037 abrogated Communication “A” 5264 and partially abrogated Communication “A” 5265, together with their amendments and supplementary regulations, specifically Communications “A” 5850, 5890 and 6011; which regulated, among others, the requirements to access the FX Market to pay principal and interest services of foreign debts.

Currently, access to the FX Market to pay interest accrued from the disbursement of funds is subject to verification by the relevant financial entities that the borrower accessing the MULC has duly filed, as applicable, the statement of debt required by Communication “A” 3602, as amended from time to time, or the statement of direct investments provided by Communication “A” 4237, as amended from time to time.

Pursuant to Resolution No. 1-E/2017, the minimum period of 120 calendar days, imposed by Resolution No. 3/2015, that proceeds from financial external indebtedness had to be kept in Argentina, was reduced to zero, notwithstanding whether or not the debt is repaid through the FX Market. Additionally, access to the FX Market for payment of principal is subject to verification by the relevant financial entity that the borrower has duly filed the statement of debt required by Communication “A” 3602, as amended from time to time.

Communication “A” 6137, issued by the Argentine Central Bank on December 30, 2016, eliminated the requirement to repatriate and exchange funds obtained from the exportation of services into Argentine pesos through the FX Market. Such requirement remains applicable only for exported services included in the FOB (free on board) and/or CIF (cost insurance and freight) value of exported goods (which is not applicable to the types of services exported by the company). Pursuant to Resolution No. 47-E/2017, the term established to comply with the requirement of transferring into Argentina and selling for Pesos in the FX Market all foreign currency proceeds from exports of goods was extended from five to ten years.

For additional information regarding all current foreign exchange restrictions and exchange control regulations in Argentina, investors should consult their legal advisors and read the applicable rules mentioned herein, as well as any amendments and complementary regulations, which are available at the Argentine Ministry of Treasury’s website: www.economia.gob.ar, or the Argentine Central Bank’s website: www.bcra.gob.ar.

| E. | TAXATION

MATERIAL LUXEMBOURG TAX CONSIDERATIONS FOR HOLDERS OF COMMON SHARES

The following is a summary discussion of certain Luxembourg tax considerations of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of your shares that may be applicable to you if you acquire our shares. This does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all of the tax considerations that may be relevant to any of the Company’s common shares, and does not purport to include tax considerations that arise from rules of general application or that are generally assumed to be known to holders. This discussion is not a complete analysis or listing of all of the possible tax consequences of such transactions and does not address all tax considerations that might be relevant to particular holders in light of their personal circumstances or to persons that are subject to special tax rules.

It is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice. This discussion is based on Luxembourg laws and regulations as they stand on the date of this annual report and is subject to any change in law or regulations or changes in interpretation or application thereof (and which may possibly have a retroactive effect). Prospective investors should therefore consult their own professional advisers as to the effects of state, local or foreign laws and regulations, including Luxembourg tax law and regulations, to which they may be subject.

As used herein, a “Luxembourg individual” means an individual resident in Luxembourg who is subject to personal income tax (impôt sur le revenu) on his or her worldwide income from Luxembourg or foreign sources, and a “Luxembourg corporate holder” means a company (that is, a fully taxable entity within the meaning of Article 159 of the Luxembourg Income Tax Law) resident in Luxembourg subject to corporate income tax (impôt sur le revenu des collectivités) on its worldwide income from Luxembourg or foreign sources. For purposes of this summary, Luxembourg individuals and Luxembourg corporate holders are collectively referred to as “Luxembourg Holders”. A “non-Luxembourg Holder” means any investor in shares of Adecoagro other than a Luxembourg Holder.

Tax regime applicable to realized capital gains

Luxembourg Holders

Luxembourg resident individual holders

Capital gains realized by Luxembourg resident individuals who do not hold their shares as part of a commercial or industrial business and who hold no more than 10% of the share capital of the Company will only be taxable if they are realized on a sale of shares that takes place before their acquisition or within the first six months following their acquisition.

Luxembourg resident corporate holders

Capital gains realized upon the disposal of shares by a fully taxable resident corporate holder will in principle be subject to corporate income tax and municipal business tax. The combined applicable rate (including an unemployment fund contribution) is 27.08% for the fiscal year ending 2017 for a corporate holder established in Luxembourg-City. An exemption from such taxes may be available to the holder pursuant to article 166 of the Luxembourg Income Tax Law subject to the fulfilment of the conditions set forth therein. The scope of the capital gains exemption can be limited in the cases provided by the Grand Ducal Decree of December 21, 2001.

Non-Luxembourg Holders

An individual who is a non-Luxembourg Holder of shares (and who does not have a permanent establishment, a permanent representative or a fixed place of business in Luxembourg) will only be subject to Luxembourg taxation on capital gains arising upon disposal of such shares if such holder has (together with his or her spouse and underage children) directly or indirectly held more than 10% of the capital of Adecoagro at any time during the past five years, and either (i) such holder has been a resident of Luxembourg for tax purposes for at least 15 years and has become a non-resident within the last five years preceding the realization of the gain, subject to any applicable tax treaty, or (ii) the disposal of shares occurs within six months from their acquisition (or prior to their actual acquisition), subject to any applicable tax treaty.

| 151 |

A corporate non-Luxembourg Holder (that is, an entity within the meaning of Article 159 of the Luxembourg Income Tax Law), which has a permanent establishment, a permanent representative or a fixed place of business in Luxembourg to which shares are attributable, will bear corporate income tax and municipal business tax on a gain realized on a disposal of such shares as set forth above for a Luxembourg corporate holder. However, gains realized on the sale of the shares may benefit from the full exemption provided for by Article 166 of the Luxembourg Income Tax Law and by the Grand Ducal Decree of December 21, 2001 subject in each case to fulfilment of the conditions set out therein.

A corporate non-Luxembourg Holder, which has no permanent establishment in Luxembourg to which the shares are attributable, will bear corporate income tax on a gain realized on a disposal of such shares under the same conditions applicable to an individual non-Luxembourg Holder, as set out above. In principle a corporate non-Luxembourg holders is only subject to taxation under (ii) above and not to taxation under (i) above. This result obtains from the provision that when a corporate Luxembourg holder migrates abroad and becomes a corporate non-Luxembourg holders, at that moment in time such holder is deemed liquidated for Luxembourg tax purposes and taxation applies at the moment in time.

Tax regime applicable to distributions

Withholding tax

Distributions imputed for tax purposes on newly accumulated profits are subject to a withholding tax of 15%. The rate of the withholding tax may be reduced pursuant to double tax avoidance treaty existing between Luxembourg and the country of residence of the relevant holder, subject to the fulfilment of the conditions set forth therein.

No withholding tax applies if the distribution is made to (i) a Luxembourg resident corporate holder (that is, a fully taxable entity within the meaning of Article 159 of the Luxembourg Income Tax Law), (ii) an undertaking of collective character which is resident of a Member State of the European Union and is referred to by article 2 of the Council Directive of 2011/96 concerning the common fiscal regime applicable to parent and subsidiary companies of different member states of November 20, 2011, (iii) a corporation or a cooperative company resident in Norway, Iceland or Liechtenstein and subject to a tax comparable to corporate income tax as provided by the Luxembourg Income Tax Law, (iv) an undertaking with a collective character subject to a tax comparable to corporate income tax as provided by the Luxembourg Income Tax Law which is resident in a country that has concluded a tax treaty with Luxembourg, (v) a Luxembourg permanent establishment of one of the afore-mentioned categories and (vi) a corporation company resident in Switzerland which is subject to corporate income tax in Switzerland without benefiting from an exemption, provided that at the date of payment, the holder holds or commits to hold directly or through a tax transparent vehicle, during an uninterrupted period of at least twelve months, shares representing at least 10% of the share capital of Adecoagro or acquired for an acquisition price of at least EUR 1,200,000.

Luxembourg Holders

With the exception of a Luxembourg corporate holders benefitting from the exemption referred to above, Luxembourg individual holders, and Luxembourg corporate holders subject to Luxembourg corporation taxes, must include the distributions paid on the shares in their taxable income, 50% of the amount of such dividends being exempted from tax. The applicable withholding tax can, under certain conditions, entitle the relevant Luxembourg Holder to a tax credit.

Net wealth tax

Luxembourg Holders

Luxembourg net wealth tax will not be levied on a Luxembourg Holder with respect to the shares held unless (i) the Luxembourg Holder is a legal entity subject to net wealth tax in Luxembourg; or (ii) the shares are attributable to an enterprise or part thereof which is carried on through a permanent establishment, a fixed place of business or a permanent representative in Luxembourg.

| 152 |

Net wealth tax is levied annually at the rate depending on the amount the net wealth of enterprises resident in Luxembourg or, a reduced rate of 0.05% for the portion of the net wealth exceeding EUR 500 million, as determined for net wealth tax purposes (i.e. 0.5% on an amount up to EUR 500 million and 0.05% on the amount of taxable net wealth exceeding EUR 500 million). The shares may be exempt from net wealth tax subject to the conditions set forth by Paragraph 60 of the Law of October 16, 1934 on the valuation of assets (Bewertungsgesetz), as amended.

Non-Luxembourg Holders

Luxembourg net wealth tax will not be levied on a non-Luxembourg Holder with respect to the shares held unless the shares are attributable to an enterprise or part thereof which is carried on through a permanent establishment or a permanent representative in Luxembourg.

United States Federal Income Taxation of the Company

Our business assets and properties are located, and all of our employees and executives are based outside the United States. Our business is directly conducted through operating companies organized under the laws of countries other than the United States. These non-U.S. operating companies are indirectly owned by Adecoagro LP SCS, a holding company which is a societe commandite simple organized under the laws of Luxembourg. As a partnership that is not engaged in a trade or business within the United States within the meaning of section 864 of the Internal Revenue Code, Adecoagro LP SCS is not itself subject to U.S. federal net income taxes. We acquired approximately 98 percent of Adecoagro LP SCS, predecessor company, IFH, prior to undertaking the IPO in exchange for our stock.

Under rules to prevent expatriation of and by U.S. corporations and certain U.S. partnerships under Code section 7874(b), we would be treated as a U.S. domestic corporation if for this purpose (i) we were deemed to have acquired substantially all of the assets constituting the trade or business of a U.S. domestic partnership and (ii) former members of IFH were deemed to own at least 80% of our stock by reason of the transfer of those trade or business assets (ignoring stock issued in the IPO for purposes of the 80% threshold) and (iii) we were found not to conduct substantial business activities in Luxembourg. In that event, we would be subject to U.S. federal net income tax on our worldwide income and dividends we pay would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a 30% rate (subject to reduction, to the extent the beneficial owner of the dividend is entitled to claim a reduced rate of withholding under an applicable income tax treaty).

We believe that the restructuring transactions executed prior to or in connection with the IPO should not be subject to section 7874(b). Accordingly, we do not believe that we will be subject to U.S. taxation on a net income basis nor do we anticipate paying dividends subject to U.S. federal withholding tax. However, the relevant rules are unclear in certain respects and there is limited guidance on the application of the rules to acquisitions of partnerships or partnership assets constituting a trade or business. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that the IRS will not seek to assert that we are a U.S. domestic corporation, which assertion if successful could materially increase our U.S. federal income tax liability. Prospective holders who are non-United States persons should also note that, in that event, we would be required to withhold tax from any dividends we pay to non-U.S. Holders (subject to any applicable income tax treaties applicable to those non-U.S. Holders).

Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors about the possible application of section 7874. The remainder of this discussion assumes that we are not treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S-. Holders

The following is a discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common shares. This discussion applies only to beneficial owners of common shares that are “U.S. Holders” (as defined below), who have purchase our common shares in the open market and that hold our common shares as “capital assets” for U.S. federal income tax purposes (generally, property held for investment). This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the “Code”), final, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations, administrative pronouncements and judicial decisions, all as currently in effect and all of which are subject to change (possibly with retroactive effect) and to differing interpretations.

| 153 |

This discussion does not address all U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a particular holder based on its particular circumstances, and you are urged to consult your own tax advisor regarding your specific tax situation. For example, the discussion does not address the tax considerations that may be relevant to U.S. Holders in special tax situations, such as:

| • | insurance companies;

| • | tax-exempt organizations (including private foundations);

| • | brokers or dealers in securities or currencies and traders in securities that elect to mark to market;

| • | banks and financial institutions;

| • | partnerships or other pass-through entities;

| • | real estate investment trusts and regulated investment companies;

| • | companies that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

| • | persons who acquire common shares through the exercise of options or other compensation arrangements;

| • | S corporations;

| • | holders whose functional currency for U.S. federal income tax purposes is not the U.S. dollar or that hold shares through non-U.S. brokers of other non-U.S. intermediaries;

| • | certain former U.S. citizens or residents or U.S. expatriates;

| • | holders that hold our common shares as part of a hedge, straddle or conversion or other integrated transaction; or

| • | holders that own, directly, indirectly, or constructively, 10% or more of the total combined voting power of our common shares.

This discussion does not address the alternative minimum tax consequences of owning common shares or the indirect consequences to holders of equity interests in partnerships or other entities that own our common shares. Moreover, this discussion does not address the state, local and foreign tax consequences of owning our common shares, or any aspect of U.S. federal tax law (such as the estate, generation-skipping and gift tax) other than U.S. federal income taxation.

You are a “U.S. Holder” if you are a beneficial owner of our common shares and you are, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

| • | an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

| • | a corporation, or any other entity taxable as a corporation, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, including the District of Columbia;

| • | an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

| • | a trust (a) if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over its administration and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all of its substantial decisions or (b) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person for federal income tax purposes.

If a partnership (or an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) owns our common shares, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. A partnership that owns our common shares, and partners in such a partnership, should consult their own tax advisors.

You should consult your own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and other tax consequences of purchase, ownership and disposition of our common shares in your particular circumstances.

Passive Foreign Investment Company (“PFIC”) Rules

U.S. Holders generally will be subject to a special, generally adverse tax regime that would differ in certain material respects from the tax treatment described below if we are, or were to become, a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

| 154 |

In general, we will be a PFIC with respect to a U.S. Holder if, for any taxable year in which the U.S. Holder held our common shares, either (i) at least 75% of our gross income for the taxable year is passive income or (ii) at least 50% of the value (determined on the basis of a quarterly average) of our assets is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. For this purpose, passive income generally includes, among other things, dividends, interest, royalties, rents, annuities and gains from assets that produce passive income. If a foreign corporation owns at least 25% by value of the stock of another corporation, the foreign corporation is treated for purposes of the PFIC tests as owning its proportionate share of the assets of the other corporation, and as receiving directly its proportionate share of the other corporation’s income.

Although the determination of whether a corporation is a PFIC is made annually, and thus may be subject to change, we do not believe that we were a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for our most recently completed taxable year, nor that we will be one for our current taxable year. The remainder of this discussion assumes that we are not a PFIC.

Dividends

Distributions with respect to our common shares (other than certain pro rata distributions of common shares) will, to the extent made from our current or accumulated earnings and profits as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We do not currently maintain calculations of our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles. Unless and until these calculations are made, distributions should be presumed to be taxable dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As used below, the term “dividend” means a distribution that constitutes a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Cash dividends (including amounts withheld on account of foreign taxes) paid with respect to our common shares generally will be includible in the gross income of a U.S. Holder as ordinary income on the day on which the dividends are received by the U.S. Holder. Dividends with respect to our common shares will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporations.

Subject to certain exceptions for short-term and hedged positions, certain non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, may be entitled to preferential rates of taxation with respect to “qualified dividends” paid by qualified foreign corporations. A foreign corporation will be treated as a qualified foreign corporation with respect to dividends paid by that corporation on common shares that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. As our shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, we believe dividends paid by us will be eligible for these preferential rates. There can, however, be no assurance that our common shares will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in the future. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of the preferential rates of taxation with respect to dividends in light of their own particular situations, including related restrictions and special rules.

The amount of any cash dividend paid in foreign currency will equal the U.S. dollar value of the dividend, calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the distribution is received, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted to U.S. dollars at that time. A U.S. Holder should not recognize any foreign currency gain or loss in respect of such distribution if such foreign currency is converted into U.S. dollars on the date received. If the foreign currency is not converted into U.S. dollars on the date received, however, gain or loss may be recognized upon a subsequent sale or other disposition of the foreign currency. Such foreign currency gain or loss, if any, generally will be U.S.-source ordinary income or loss.

Dividends received by most U.S. Holders will constitute foreign-source “passive category” income (“general category income” for certain U.S. Holders) for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. Subject to limitations under U.S. federal income tax law concerning credits or deductions for foreign taxes and certain exceptions for short-term and hedged positions, a Luxembourg withholding tax imposed on dividends described above under “Material Luxembourg Tax Considerations for Holders of Shares—Tax regime applicable to distributions—Withholding tax” should be treated as a foreign income tax eligible for credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability (or at a U.S. Holder’s election, may be deducted in computing taxable income if the U.S. Holder has elected to deduct all foreign income taxes for the taxable year). Special limitations on foreign tax credits apply to dividends subject to the preferential rate of taxation for qualified dividends. The rules with respect to foreign tax credits are complex and U.S. Holders are urged to consult their independent tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.

| 155 |

Taxation of Capital Gains

Gain or loss realized by a U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of common shares will be subject to U.S. federal income taxation as capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized (including the gross amount of the proceeds before the deduction of any foreign tax) on the sale or other taxable disposition and such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the common shares. Capital gains of certain non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, derived with respect to capital assets held for more than one year generally are eligible for various reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations under the Code.

Capital gain or loss, if any, realized by a U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of a common share generally will be treated as U.S. source income or loss for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. Consequently, in the case of a disposition of a common share that is subject to Luxembourg or other foreign income tax imposed on the gain, the U.S. Holder may not be able to benefit from the foreign tax credit for that foreign income tax (i.e., because the income or loss on the disposition would be U.S. source). Alternatively, the U.S. Holder may take a deduction for the foreign income tax if such holder does not take a credit for any foreign income tax during the taxable year.

Medicare Contribution Tax on Unearned Income

Certain U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts will be subject to a 3.8% tax on all or a portion of their “net investment income,” which may include all or a portion of their dividend income and net gains from the disposition of common shares. Each U.S. holder that is an individual, estate or trust is urged to consult its tax advisors regarding the applicability of the Medicare tax to its income and gains in respect of its investment in the common shares.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

In general, dividends on common shares, and payments of the proceeds of a sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of common shares, paid within the U.S. or through certain U.S. related financial intermediaries to a U.S. Holder are subject to information reporting and may be subject to backup withholding unless the holder is an exempt recipient or, in the case of backup withholding, provides an accurate taxpayer identification number and certifies under penalty of perjury that the holder is a U.S. person and is not subject to backup withholding.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules generally will be allowed as a refund or a credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Certain U.S. Holders who hold interests in “specified foreign financial assets” (as defined in Section 6038D of the Code) are generally required to file an IRS Form 8938 as part of their U.S. federal income tax returns to report their ownership of such specified foreign financial assets, which may include our common shares, if the total value of those assets exceeds certain thresholds. Financial assets that are held through a U.S. financial institution are not subject to this reporting requirement. Investors who fail to report this required information could become subject to substantial penalties. In addition, in the event a U.S. Holder that is required to file IRS Form 8938 does not file such form, the statute of limitations on the assessment and collection of U.S. federal income taxes of such holder for the related tax year may not close until three years after the date that the required information is filed. U.S. Holders are encouraged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding their tax reporting obligations.

| Item 15. | Controls and Procedures

a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation pursuant to Rule 13a-15 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2016. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based on this evaluation, our company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2016.

b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Company’s Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer that: (i) pertains to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets; (ii) provides reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements for external reporting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of the Company’s management and directors; and (iii) provides reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedure may deteriorate. The Company, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016.

We assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016. In making this assessment, management used the criteria established in “Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). As a result of this assessment, the Company’s management has determined that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2016.

c) Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm

The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 has been audited by Price Waterhouse & Co S.R.L, an independent registered public accounting firm, our independent auditor, as stated in their report which is included herein at page F-2 of our Consolidated Financial Statements.

d) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

As required by Rule 13a-15(d), under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any change occurred during the period covered since the last report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation, it has been determined that there has been no change during the period covered by this annual report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

| Item 16. |

| A. | Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our audit committee consists of four independent directors: Mr. Plínio Musetti, Mr. Mark Schachter, Mr. Daniel González and Mr. Andrés Velasco Brañes. Our board of directors has determined that Mr. Mark Schachter has the attributes of an “audit committee financial expert” and is independent within the meaning of this Item 16A and satisfies the financial literacy requirements of the NYSE.

| 158 |

| B. | Code of Ethics

We have adopted a code of ethics and business conduct that applies to our directors, executive officers and all employees. The text of our code of ethics is posted on our web site at: www.adecoagro.com.

| C. | Principal Accountant Fees and Services

The following table sets forth the aggregate fees by categories specified below in connection with certain professional services rendered by Price Waterhouse & Co. S.R.L., a member firm of Price WaterhouseCoopers International Limited Network, an independent registered accounting public firm and our principal external auditors, for the periods indicated. Except as set forth below, we did not pay any other fees to our auditors during the periods indicated below.

|  | For the year ended December 31, |
|  | (in thousands of $) |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Audit Fees (1) |  |  | 1,233 |  |  |  | 1,208 |

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, no non-audit-related services were provided by our principal auditors.

| 159 |

Audit Committee Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee has adopted pre-approval policies and procedures requiring that all audit and non-audit services performed by our independent auditors must be pre-approved by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee annually reviews and pre-approves the services that may be provided by the independent auditors without obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee. Any service proposals submitted by external auditors that are not pre-approved services need to be discussed and approved by the Audit Committee during its meetings. Once the proposed service is approved, we or our subsidiaries formalize the engagement of services.

The Audit Committee or its Chairman, or any member of the Audit Committee to whom such authority is delegated, may approve in advance any permitted audit or permited non-audit services and fees up to a predetermined amount. The Audit Committee is authorized to establish other policies and procedures for the pre-approval of such services and fees. The Audit Committee approved all of the non-audit services described above and determined that the provision of such services is compatible with maintaining the independence of Price Waterhouse & Co. S.R.L.

| G. | Corporate Governance

Our corporate governance practices are governed by Luxembourg law (particularly the law of August 10th, 1915 on commercial companies) and our articles of association. As a Luxembourg company listed on the NYSE, we are not required to comply with all of the corporate governance listing standards of the NYSE. We, however, believe that our corporate governance practices meet or exceed, in all material respects, the corporate governance standards that are generally required for controlled companies by the NYSE. The following is a summary of the significant ways that our corporate governance practices differ from the corporate governance standards required for listed U.S. companies by the NYSE (provided that our corporate governance practices may differ in non-material ways from the standards required by the NYSE that are not detailed here):

Majority of Independent Directors

Under NYSE standards, U.S. listed companies must have a majority of independent directors. There is no legal obligation under Luxembourg law to have a majority of independent directors on the board of directors.

Non-management Directors’ Meetings

Under NYSE standards, non-management directors must meet at regularly scheduled executive sessions without management present and, if such group includes directors who are not independent, a meeting should be scheduled once per year including only independent directors. Neither Luxembourg law nor our Articles of Association require the holding of such meetings ad we do not have a set policy for these meetings. Our Articles of Association provide, however, that the board shall meet as often as required by the best interest of the Company. For additional information, see “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—A. Directors and Senior Management.”

Communication with Non-Management Directors

NYSE-listed companies are required to provide a method for interested parties to communicate directly with the non-management directors as a group. Shareholders may send communications to the Company’s non-management directors by writing to Mr. Plínio Musetti at Rua Amauri, 255 - 17th Floor, Jardim Europa, São Paulo, SP 01448-000, Brazil, telephone: (5511) 3035-1588. Communications will be referred to the Presiding Director for appropriate action. The status of all outstanding concerns addressed to the Presiding Director will be reported to the board of directors as appropriate.

Audit Committee

Under NYSE standards, listed U.S. companies are required to have an audit committee composed of independent directors that satisfies the requirements of Rule 10A-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act of 1934. Our Articles of Association provide that the board of directors may set up an audit committee. The board of directors has set up an Audit Committee and has appointed Mr. Plínio Musetti, Mr. Mark Schachter , Mr. Daniel Gonzalez and Mr. Andres Velasco Brañes as members of its audit committee. In accordance with NYSE standards, we have an audit committee entirely composed of independent directors. For additional information, see “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—C. Board Practices”.

| 161 |

Under NYSE standards, all audit committee members of listed U.S. companies are required to be financially literate or must acquire such financial knowledge within a reasonable period and at least one of its members shall have experience in accounting or financial administration. In addition, if a member of the audit committee is simultaneously a member of the audit committee of more than three public companies, and the listed company does not limit the number of audit committees on which its members may serve, then in each case the board must determine whether the simultaneous service would prevent such member from effectively serving on the listed company’s audit committee and shall publicly disclose its decision. No comparable provisions on audit committee membership exist under Luxembourg law or our articles of association.

Standards for Evaluating Director Independence

Under NYSE standards, the board is required, on a case by case basis, to express an opinion with regard to the independence or lack of independence of each individual director. Neither Luxembourg law nor our Articles of Association require the board to express such an opinion. In addition, the definition of “independent” under the rules of the NYSE differs in some non-material respects from the definition contained in our Articles of Association.

Audit Committee Responsibilities

Pursuant to our Articles of Association, the audit committee shall assist the board of directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities relating to the integrity of the Company’s financial statements, including periodically reporting to the board of directors on its activity and the adequacy of the Company’s system of internal controls over financial reporting. As per the audit committee charter, as amended, the audit committee shall make recommendations for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of, and consider the independence of, the company’s external auditors. The audit committee is required to review material transactions (as defined by the Articles of Association) between us or our subsidiaries with related parties, perform such other duties imposed to it by laws and regulations of the regulated market(s) on which the shares of the Company are listed, and also perform the other duties entrusted to it by the board.

The NYSE requires certain matters to be set forth in the audit committee charter of U.S. listed companies. Our audit committee charter provides for many of the responsibilities that are expected from such bodies under the NYSE standard; however, due to our equity structure and holding company nature, the charter does not contain all such responsibilities, including provisions related to setting hiring policies for employees or former employees of independent auditors.

Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee.

The NYSE requires that a listed U.S. company have a nominating/corporate governance committee of independent directors and a committee charter specifying the purpose, duties and evaluation procedures of the committee. As permitted under Luxembourg law and our Articles of Association, we do not currently have a nominating or corporate governance committee.

Shareholder Voting on Equity Compensation Plans

Under NYSE standards, shareholders of U.S. listed companies must be given the opportunity to vote on equity compensation plans and material revisions thereto, except for employment inducement awards, certain grants, plans and amendments in the context of mergers and acquisitions, and certain specific types of plans. Neither Luxembourg corporate law nor our articles of incorporation require shareholder approval of equity based compensation plans. Luxembourg law only requires approval of the board of directors for the adoption of equity based compensation plans.

Disclosure of Corporate Governance Guidelines

NYSE-listed companies must adopt and disclose corporate governance guidelines. Neither Luxembourg law nor our Articles of Association require the adoption or disclosure of corporate governance guidelines. Our board of directors follows corporate governance guidelines consistent with our equity structure and holding company nature, but we have not codified them and therefore do not disclose them on our website.

| 162 |

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Under NYSE standards, listed companies must adopt and disclose a code of business conduct and ethics for directors, officers and employees, and promptly disclose any waivers of the code for directors or executive officers. Neither Luxembourg law nor our Articles of Association require the adoption or disclosure of such a code of conduct.

We have adopted a code of ethics and business conduct that applies to our directors, executive officers and all employees. The text of our code of ethics is posted on our web site at: www.adecoagro.com. And substantially complies with the NYSE´s requirements under the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

Chief Executive Officer Certification

A chief executive officer of a U.S. company listed on NYSE must annually certify that he or she is not aware of any violation by the company of NYSE corporate governance standards. In accordance with NYSE rules applicable to foreign private issuers, our chief executive officer is not required to provide NYSE with this annual compliance certification. However, in accordance with NYSE rules applicable to all listed companies, our chief executive officer must promptly notify NYSE in writing after any of our executive officers becomes aware of any noncompliance with any applicable provision of NYSE’s corporate governance standards. In addition, we must submit an executed written affirmation annually and an interim written affirmation each time a change occurs to the board or the audit committee.

Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 and for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders of

Adecoagro S.A.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’s equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Adecoagro S.A. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016 in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in “Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting” included in Item 15 of this Annual Report on Form 20-F. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

As discussed in Note 32.1, the company changed the manner in which it accounts for biological assets and property, plant and equipment.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

| 2. | Financial risk management

Risk management principles and processes

The Group’s activities are exposed to a variety of financial risks. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize the Group’s capital costs by using suitable means of financing and to manage and control the Group’s financial risks effectively. The Group uses financial instruments to hedge certain risk exposures.

The Group’s approach to the identification, assessment and mitigation of risk is carried out by a Risk and Commercial Committee, which focuses on timely and appropriate management of risk.

The principal financial risks are related to raw material price, end-product price, exchange rate, interest rate, liquidity and credit. This section provides a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s strategy, performance, results of operations and financial condition. These risks do not appear in any particular order of potential materiality or probability of occurrence.

| · | Exchange rate risk

The Group’s cash flows, statement of income and statement of financial position are presented in US dollars and may be affected by fluctuations in exchange rates. Currency risks as defined by IFRS 7 arise on account of monetary assets and liabilities being denominated in a currency that is not the functional currency.

A significant majority of the Group’s business activities is conducted in the respective functional currencies of the subsidiaries (primarily the Brazilian Reais and the Argentine Peso). However, the Group may transact in currencies other than the respective functional currencies, mainly the US dollars. As such, these subsidiaries may hold US dollar denominated monetary balances at each year-end as indicated in the tables below.

The Group’s net financial position exposure to the US dollar is managed on a case-by-case basis, partly by hedging certain expected cash flows with foreign exchange derivative contracts.

The following tables show the net monetary position of the respective subsidiaries within the Group categorized by functional currency. Non-US dollar amounts are presented in US dollars for purpose of these tables.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

The Group’s analysis shown on the tables below is carried out based on the exposure of each functional currency subsidiary against the US dollar. The Group estimated that, other factors being constant, a hypothetical 10% appreciation/depreciation of the US dollar against the respective functional currencies for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 would have decreased/increased the Group’s Profit Before Income Tax for the year. A 10% depreciation of the US dollar against the functional currencies would have an equal and opposite effect on the income statement. A portion of this effect would have been recognized as other comprehensive income since a portion of the Company’s borrowings was used as cash flow hedge of the foreign exchange rate risk of a portion of its highly probable future sales in US dollars (see Hedge Accounting - Cash Flow Hedge below for details).

|  | Functional currency |
Net monetary position |  | Argentine Peso |  |  | Brazilian Reais |  |  | Uruguayan Peso |  |  | US Dollar |  |  | Total |
2016 |  | US Dollar |  |  | (4,409 | ) |  |  | (30,709 | ) |  |  | (771 | ) |  |  | - |  |  |  | (35,889 | )
2015 |  | US Dollar |  |  | (6,126 | ) |  |  | (37,676 | ) |  |  | 3,256 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | (40,546 | )

The tables above only consider the effect of a hypothetical appreciation / depreciation of the US dollars on the Group’s net financial position. A hypothetical appreciation / depreciation of the US dollar against the functional currencies of the Group’s subsidiaries has historically had a positive / negative effect, respectively, on the fair value of the Group’s biological assets and the end prices of the Group’s agriculture produce, both of which are generally linked to the US dollar.

Hedge Accounting - Cash Flow Hedge

Effective July 1, 2013, the Group formally documented and designated cash flow hedging relationships to hedge the foreign exchange rate risk of a portion of its highly probable future sales in US dollars using a portion of its borrowings denominated in US dollars, currency forwards and foreign currency floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

| F- 13 |

Adecoagro S.A.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

(All amounts in US$ thousands, except shares and per share data and as otherwise indicated)

| 2. | Financial risk management (continued)

Principal amounts of long-term borrowings (non-derivative financial instruments) and notional values of foreign currency forward contracts (derivative financial instruments) were designated as hedging instruments. These instruments are exposed to Brazilian Reais/ US dollar foreign currency risks related to operations in Brazil and Argentine Peso/US Dollar in Argentina, respectively. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, approximately 18.1% and 28.4%, respectively, of projected sales qualify as highly probable forecast transactions for hedge accounting purposes and were designated as hedged items.

The Group has prepared formal documentation in order to support the designation above, including an explanation of how the designation of the hedging relationship is aligned with the Group’s Risk Management Policy, identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged transactions, the nature of the risk being hedged and an analysis which demonstrates that the hedge is expected to be highly effective. The Group reassesses the prospective and retrospective effectiveness of the hedge on an ongoing basis comparing the foreign currency component of the carrying amount of the hedging instruments and of the highly probable future sales.

Under cash flow hedge accounting, effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on derivative and non-derivative hedging instruments not be immediately recognized in profit or loss, but be reclassified from equity to profit or loss in the periods when the future sales occur, thus allowing for a more appropriate presentation of the results for the period reflecting the strategy in the Group’s Risk Management Policy.

The Company expects that the cash flows will occur and affect profit or loss between 2017 and 2021.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, a total amount before income tax of 67,683 gain (US$ 176,657 loss in 2015) was recognized in other comprehensive income and an amount of US$ 85,214 loss (US$ 32,700 loss in 2015) was reclassified from equity to profit or loss within “Financial results, net”.

| · | Raw material price risk

Inflation in the costs of raw materials and goods and services from industry suppliers and manufacturers presents risks to project economics. A significant portion of the Group’s cost structure includes the cost of raw materials primarily seeds, fertilizers and agrochemicals, among others. Prices for these raw materials may vary significantly.

| · | End-product price risk

Prices for commodities products have historically been cyclical, reflecting overall economic conditions and changes in capacity within the industry, which affect the profitability of entities engaged in the agribusiness industry. The Group combines different actions to minimize price risk. A percentage of crops are to be sold during and post harvest period. The Group manages minimum and maximum prices for each commodity as well as gross margin per each crop as to decide when and how to sell. End-product price risks are hedged if economically viable and possible by entering into forward contracts with major trading houses or by using derivative financial instruments, consisting mainly of crops and sugar future contracts, but also includes occasionally put and call options. A movement in end-product futures prices would result in a change in the fair value of the end product hedging contracts. These fair value changes, after taxes, are recorded in the statement of income.

Contract positions are designed to ensure that the Group would receive a defined minimum price for certain quantities of its production. The counterparties to these instruments generally are major financial institutions. In entering into these contracts, the Group has assumed the risk that might arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The Group does not expect any material losses as a result of counterparty defaults. The Group is also obliged to pay margin deposits and premiums for these instruments. These estimates represent only the sensitivity of the financial instruments to market risk and not the Group exposure to end product price risks as a whole, since the crops and cattle products sales are not financial instruments within the scope of IFRS 7 disclosure requirements.

| · | Liquidity risk

The Group is exposed to liquidity risks, including risks associated with refinancing borrowings as they mature, and that borrowing facilities are not available to meet cash requirements. Failure to manage liquidity risks could have a material impact on the Group’s cash flow and statement of financial position.

Prudent liquidity risk management includes managing the profile of debt maturities and funding sources close oversight of cash flows projections, maintaining sufficient cash, and ensuring the availability of funding from an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close out market positions. The Group's ability to fund its existing and prospective debt requirements is managed by maintaining diversified funding sources with adequate available funding lines from high quality lenders; and reaching to have long-term financial facilities.

As of December 31, 2016, cash and cash equivalents of the Group totaled U$S 158.6 million, which could be used for managing liquidity risk.

The tables below analyzes the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities and derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the statement of financial position to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows and as a result they do not reconcile to the amounts disclosed on the statement of financial position except for short-term payables when discounting is not applied.

| · | Interest rate risk

The Group’s interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings at floating rates, which expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. The interest rate profile of the Group's borrowings is set out in Note 26.

The Group occasionally manages its cash flow interest rate risk exposure by using floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps. Such interest rate swaps have the economic effect of converting borrowings from floating rates to fixed rates.

The following tables show a breakdown of the Group’s fixed-rate and floating-rate borrowings per currency denomination and functional currency of the subsidiary issuing the loans (excluding finance leases). These analyses are performed after giving effect to interest rate swaps.

The analysis for the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 is as follows:

For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, if interest rates on floating-rate borrowings had been 1% higher with all other variables held constant, the Group’s Profit Before Income Tax for the years would have decreased as shown below. A 1% decrease in interest rates would have an equal and opposite effect on the income statement.

The sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming that the change in interest rates had occurred at the date of the statement of financial position and had been applied to the exposure to interest rate risk for financial instruments in existence at that date. The 100 basis point increase or decrease represents management's assessment of a reasonable possible change in those interest rates, which have the most impact on the Group, specifically the United States and Brazilian rates over the period until the next annual statement of financial position date.

| · | Credit risk

The Group’s exposures to credit risk arise in certain agreements in relation to amounts owed for physical product sales, the use of derivative instruments, and the investment of surplus cash balances. The Group is also exposed to political and economic risk events, which may cause non-payment of foreign currency obligations to the Group.

The Group’s policy is to manage credit exposure to trading counterparties within defined trading limits. All of the Group’s significant counterparties are assigned internal credit limits.

The Group sells to a large base of customers. Type and class of customers may differ depending on the Group’s business segments. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, more than 95% and 95%, respectively, of the Group’s sales of crops were sold to 121 and 95 well-known customers (both multinational and local) with good credit history with the Group. In the Sugar, Ethanol and Energy segment, sales of ethanol were concentrated in 35 and 25 customers, which represented 96 % and 96 % of total sales of ethanol for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Approximately 71 % and 82 % of the Group’s sales of sugar were concentrated in 20 and 13 well-known traders for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The remaining 3 % and 18 %, which mainly relates to “crystal sugar”, were dispersed among several customers. In 2016 and 2015, energy sales are 96 % and 96 % concentrated in 14 major customers. In the dairy segment, 85 % and 92 % of the sales were concentrated in 14 and 14 well-known customers in 2016 and 2015, respectively.

No credit limits were exceeded during the reporting periods and management does not expect any losses from non-performance by these counterparties. If any of the Group’s customers are independently rated, these ratings are used. Otherwise, the Group assesses the credit quality of the customer taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors (see Note 18 for details). The Group may seek cash collateral, letter of credit or parent company guarantees, as considered appropriate. Sales to customers are primarily made by credit with customary payment terms. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the statement of financial position after deducting any impairment allowance. The Group’s exposure of credit risk arising from trade receivables is set out in Note 18.

The Group is exposed to counterparty credit risk on cash and cash equivalent balances. The Group holds cash on deposit with a number of financial institutions. The Group manages its credit risk exposure by limiting individual deposits to clearly defined limits. The Group only deposits with high quality banks and financial institutions. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the total amount of cash and cash equivalents mainly comprise cash in banks and short-term bank deposits. The Group is authorized to transact with banks rated “BBB+” or higher. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, 4 and 3 banks (primarily HSBC, Rabobank, Citibank and Banco do Brasil) accounted for more than 85 % and 86 %, respectively, of the total cash deposited. The remaining amount of cash and cash equivalents relates to cash in hand. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2016, the Group invested in fixed-term bank deposits with mainly two banks (Banco do Brasil and Citibank) and also entered into derivative contracts (currency forward). The Group does not have investment in securities or other financial instruments for which risk may have increased due to the financial credit crisis. The Group’s exposure of credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents is set out in Note 20.

The Group’s primary objective for holding derivative financial instruments is to manage currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and commodity price risk. The Group generally enters into derivative transactions with high-credit-quality counterparties and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one counterparty based on an analysis of that counterparty's relative credit standing. The amounts subject to credit risk related to derivative instruments are generally limited to the amounts, if any, by which counterparty's obligations exceed the obligations with that counterparty.

The Group arranged interest rate swaps with HSBC and Itau in Brazil. The Group also entered into crop commodity futures traded in the established trading markets of Argentina and Brazil through well-rated brokers. Management does not expect any counterparty to fail to meet its obligations.

| · | Capital risk management

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, it may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or by own shares or sell assets to reduce debt. Consistent with others in the industry, the Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as total debt (including current and non-current borrowings as shown in the consolidated statement of financial position, if applicable) divided by total capital. Total capital is calculated as equity, as shown in the consolidated statement of financial position, plus total debt. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the strategy was to maintain the gearing ratio within 0.45 to 0.60, as follows:

|  |  | 2016 |  |  |  | 2015 (*) |
Total Debt |  |  | 635,396 |  |  |  | 723,339 |
Total Equity |  |  | 671,673 |  |  |  | 527,419 |
Total Capital |  |  | 1,307,069 |  |  |  | 1,250,758 |
Gearing Ratio |  |  | 0.49 |  |  |  | 0.58 |

(*) The prior years have been adjusted to reflect the Company’s adoption of amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 41 as further described in Note 32.

| · | Derivative financial instruments

As part of its business operations, the Group uses a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to the financial risks discussed above. As part of this strategy, the Group may enter into derivatives of (i) interest rate to manage the composition of floating and fixed rate debt; (ii) currency to manage exchange rate risk, and (iii) crop (future contracts and put and call options) to manage its exposure to price volatility stemming from its integrated crop production activities. The Group’s policy is not to use derivatives for speculative purposes.

Derivative financial instruments involve, to a varying degree, elements of market and credit risk not recognized in the financial statements. The market risk associated with these instruments resulting from price movements is expected to offset the market risk of the underlying transactions, assets and liabilities, being hedged. The counterparties to the agreements relating to the Group’s contracts generally are large institutions with credit ratings equal to or higher than BBB+. The Group continually monitors the credit rating of such counterparties and seeks to limit its financial exposure to any one financial institution. While the contract or notional amounts of derivative financial instruments provide one measure of the volume of these transactions, they do not represent the amount of the Group’s exposure to credit risk. The amounts potentially subject to credit risk (arising from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts) are generally limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparties’ obligations under the contracts exceed the Group’s obligations to the counterparties.

| § | Foreign currency floating-to-fixed interest rate swap

In July 2016 the Group's subsidiary in Brazil, Adecoagro Vale do Ivinhema entered into a Reais 90 million (US$ 27.8 as of that date) loan with Bradesco. The loan bears interest at a variable rate of CDI (an interbanking floating interest rate in USD) plus 2.1% per year. At same moment and with same bank, the Company entered into a swap operation, which intention is to effectively convert the principal amount and interest rate denominated in Reais, to a principal amount an interest rate denominated in US$, plus a fixed rate of 6.55 %. The swap expires according to the due dates of the loan, until May 2019. As of December 31, 2016, the Group recorded a liability of US$ 0.7 million representing the estimated fair value of the swap as of that date.

| § | Currency forward

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Group entered into several currency forward contracts with Brazilian banks in order to hedge the fluctuation of the Brazilian Reais against the US Dollar for a total aggregate amount of US$ 57.2 million. The currency forward contracts entered in 2016 had maturity dates ranging between March 2016 and April 2017. The outstanding contracts resulted in a recognition of a loss of US$ 16.9 million in 2016.

During the year ended on December 31, 2016, the Group entered into several currency forward contracts with Argentinian banks in order to hedge the fluctuation of the Argentinean peso against US Dollar for a total notional amount of US$ 30.2 million. The currency forward contracts maturity date were in February 2016 and May 2017. The outstanding contracts resulted in the recognition of a loss amounting to US$ 0.3 million in 2016.

During the year ended on December 31, 2016, the Group entered into several currency forward contracts in order to hedge the fluctuation of the US Dollar against Euro for a total notional amount of US$ 10.7 million. The currency forward contracts maturity date is March 2017. The outstanding contracts resulted in the recognition of a gain amounting to US$ 0.6 million in 2016.

Gains and losses on currency forward contracts are included within “Financial results, net” in the statement of income.

| 3. | Segment information

According to IFRS 8, operating segments are identified based on the ‘management approach’. Operating segments are components of an entity about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance (the Management committee in the case of the Company). This classification is based on the differences in the nature of its operations, products and services. This approach stipulates external segment reporting based on the Group’s internal organizational and management structure and on internal financial reporting to the chief operating decision maker.

The Group operates in three major lines of business, namely, Farming; Sugar, Ethanol and Energy; and Land Transformation. The Coffee and Cattle businesses are now presented within “Farming – All Other Segments” because they not meet the quantitive threshold for disclosure.

| · | The Group’s ‘Farming’ is further comprised of five reportable segments:

| § | The Group’s ‘Crops’ Segment consists of planting, harvesting and sale of grains, oilseeds and fibers (including wheat, corn, soybeans, cotton and sunflowers, among others), and to a lesser extent the provision of grain warehousing/conditioning and handling and drying services to third parties. Each underlying crop in this segment does not represent a separate operating segment. Management seeks to maximize the use of the land through the cultivation of one or more type of crops. Types and surface amount of crops cultivated may vary from harvest year to harvest year depending on several factors, some of them out of the Group´s control. Management is focused on the long-term performance of the productive land, and to that extent, the performance is assessed considering the aggregated combination, if any, of crops planted in the land. A single manager is responsible for the management of operating activity of all crops rather than for each individual crop.

| § | The Group’s ‘Rice’ Segment consists of planting, harvesting, processing and marketing of rice;

| § | The Group’s ‘Dairy’ Segment consists of the production and sale of raw milk and other dairy products,

Tax loss carry forwards in Argentina and Uruguay generally expire within 5 years. Tax loss carry forwards in Brazil do not expire. However, in Brazil, the taxable profit for each year can only be reduced by tax loss carry forward up to a maximum of 30 %.

In order to fully realize the deferred tax asset, the Group will need to generate future taxable income in the countries where the tax loss carry forward were incurred. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes that as at December 31, 2016, it is probable that the Group will realize all of the deferred tax assets in Argentina and some portion of the deferred tax assets in Brazil.

As of December 31, 2016, the Group’s tax loss carry forwards and their corresponding jurisdictions are as follows:

Jurisdiction |  | Tax loss carry forward |  | Expiration Period
Argentina |  |  | 62,480 |  |  | 5 years
Brazil |  |  | 219,840 |  |  | No expiration date.
Uruguay |  |  | 1,773 |  |  | 5 years

Deferred income tax assets are recognized for tax loss carry-forwards to the extent that the realization of the related tax benefit through future taxable profits is probable. The Group did not recognize deferred income tax assets of US$ 4.0 million in respect of losses amounting to US$ 11.8 million that can be carried forward against future taxable income.

The tax on the Group’s profit before tax differs from the theoretical amount that would arise using the weighted average tax rate applicable to profits of the consolidated entities as follows:

|  | 2016 |  | 2015 |  | 2014
Tax calculated at the tax rates applicable to profits in the respective countries |  |  | (3,644 | ) |  |  | 3,842 |  |  |  | (7,804 | )
Non-deductible items |  |  | (3,304 | ) |  |  | (133 | ) |  |  | (441 | )
Non-deductible items – changes in estimates on previous year |  |  | (1,182 | ) |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |
Tax losses where no deferred tax asset was recognized |  |  | (569 | ) |  |  | (317 | ) |  |  | (2,383 | )
Non-taxable income |  |  | - |  |  |  | 4,625 |  |  |  | 199 |
Others |  |  | (688 | ) |  |  | (63 | ) |  |  | (106 | )

| 11. | Earnings per share

(a) Basic

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Group by the weighted average number of shares in issue during the period excluding ordinary shares held as treasury shares (Note 22).

|  | 2016 |  | 2015 |  | 2014
Profit/(Loss) from operations attributable to equity holders of the Group |  |  | 2,039 |  |  |  | (5,593 | ) |  |  | 11,116 |
Weighted average number of shares in issue (thousands) |  |  | 121,421 |  |  |  | 120,901 |  |  |  | 120,562 |
Basic earnings / (loss) per share from operations |  |  | 0.017 |  |  |  | (0.046 | ) |  |  | 0.092 |

(b) Diluted

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential shares. The Group has two categories of dilutive potential shares: equity-settled share options and restricted units. For these instruments, a calculation is done to determine the number of shares that could have been acquired at fair value, based on the monetary value of the subscription rights attached to outstanding share options. The number of shares calculated as above is compared with the number of shares that would have been issued assuming the exercise of the equity-settled share options. As of December 31, 2016, there were 1,658 thousands (2015: 1,701 thousands; 2014: 1,729 thousands) share options/restricted units outstanding that could potentially have a dilutive impact in the future but were antidilutive for the periods presented.

|  | 2016 |  | 2015 |  | 2014
Profit / (Loss) from operations attributable to equity holders of the Group |  |  | 2,039 |  |  |  | (5,593 | ) |  |  | 11,116 |

| 12. | Property, plant and equipment (continued)

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocated their cost over the estimated usefull lives. Farmlands are not depreciated.

Farmland improvements | 5-25 years
Buildings and facilities | 20 years
Furniture and fittings | 10 years
Computer equipment | 3-5 years
Machinery and equipment | 4-10 years
Vehicles | 4-5 years
Bearer plants | 6 years

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each statement of financial position date.

Depreciation charges are included in “Cost of production of Biological Assets”, “Cost of production of manufactures products”, “General and administrative expenses”, “Selling expenses” and capitalized in “Property, plant and equipment” for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, borrowing costs of US$ 4,654 (2015: US$ 7,684, 2014: US$ 6,864) were capitalized as components of the cost of acquisition or construction for qualifying assets.

Certain of the Group’s assets have been pledged as collateral to secure the Group’s borrowings and other payables. The net book value of the pledged assets amounts to US$ 575,882 as of December 31, 2016 (2015: US$ 416,393).

As of December 31, 2015, the impact of a reasonable 10 % increase (decrease) in estimated costs, with all other variables held constant, would result in a decrease (increase) in the fair value of the Group’s plantations less cost to sell of US$ 9.1 million for sugarcane, US$ 1.1 million for crops and US$ 2.8 million for rice.

As of December 31, 2016, the impact of a reasonable 10 % increase (decrease) in estimated costs, with all other variables held constant, would result in a decrease (increase) in the fair value of the Group’s plantations less cost to sell of US$ 10.8 million for sugarcane, US$ 1.0 million for crops and US$ 2.7 million for rice.

| 17. | Financial instruments by category

The Group classified its financial assets in the following categories:

(a) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short-term. Derivatives are also categorized as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. For all years presented, the Group’s financial assets at fair value through profit or loss comprise mainly derivative financial instruments.

(b) Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables comprise “trade and other receivables” and “cash and cash equivalents” in the statement of financial position.

The following tables show the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities by category of financial instrument and reconciliation to the corresponding line item in the statements of financial position, as appropriate. Since the line items “Trade and other receivables, net” and “Trade and other payables” contain both financial instruments and non-financial assets or liabilities (such as other tax receivables or advance payments for services to be received in the future), the reconciliation is shown in the columns headed “Non-financial assets” and “Non-financial liabilities”.

Liabilities carried at amortized cost also included liabilities under finance leases where the Group is the lessee and which therefore have to be measured in accordance with IAS 17. The categories disclosed are determined by reference to IAS 39. Finance leases are excluded from the scope of IFRS 7. Therefore, finance leases have been shown separately.

Because of the short maturities of most trade accounts receivable and payable, other receivables and liabilities, and cash and cash equivalents, their carrying amounts at the closing date do not differ significantly from their respective fair values. The fair value of long-term borrowings is disclosed in Note 26.

Determining fair values

IFRS 13 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. All financial instruments recognized at fair value are allocated to one of the valuation hierarchy levels of IFRS 13. This valuation hierarchy provides for three levels. The allocation reflects which of the fair values derive from transactions in the market and where valuation is based on models because market transactions are lacking. The level in the fair value hierarchy is categorized in its entirety is determined on the basis of the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the financial instruments recognized at fair value on the statement of financial position comprise derivative financial instruments.

In the case of Level 1, valuation is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical financial assets that the Group can refer to at the date of the statement of financial position. The financial instruments the Group has allocated to this level mainly comprise crop futures and options traded on the stock market.

Derivatives not traded on the stock market allocated to Level 2 are valued using models based on observable market data. The financial instruments the Group has allocated to this level mainly comprise interest-rate swaps and foreign-currency interest-rate swaps.

In the case of Level 3, the Group uses valuation techniques not based on inputs observable in the market. This is only permissible insofar as no observable market data are available. The Group does not have financial instruments allocated to this level for any of the years presented.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

There were no transfers within level 1 and 2 during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

When no quoted prices in an active market are available, fair values (particularly with derivatives) are based on recognized valuation methods. The Group uses a range of valuation models for this purpose, details of which may be obtained from the following table:

As of December 31, 2016 trade receivables of US$ 14,641 (2015: US$ 7,542) were past due but not impaired. The ageing analysis of these receivables indicates that 5,264 and 549 are over 6 months in 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Group recognizes an allowance for trade receivables when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

Delinquency in payments is an indicator that a receivable may be impaired. However, management considers all available evidence in determining when a receivable is impaired. Generally, trade receivables, which are more than 180 days past due are fully provided for. However, certain receivables 180+ days overdue are not provided for based on a case-by-case analysis of credit quality analysis. Furthermore, receivables, which are not 180+ days overdue, may be provided for if specific analysis indicates a potential impairment.

Movements on the Group’s allowance for trade receivables are as follows:

The creation and release of allowance for trade receivables have been included in “Selling expenses” in the statement of income. Amounts charged to the allowance account are generally written off, when there is no expectation of recovering additional cash.

The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of receivable mentioned above.

As of December 31, 2016, approximately 82% (2015: 73%) of the outstanding unimpaired trade receivables (neither past due not impaired) relate to sales to 17 well-known multinational companies with good credit quality standing, including but not limited to Camara de Comercializacao de Energia Electrica CCEE, Louis Dreyfus Commodities Suisse S.A.T, Alimport, Czarnikow Group Limited, Establecimientos Las Marias, Mastellone Hnos.S.A., Bunge Agritrade S.A., ETG Commodities Ltd., among others. Most of these entities or their parent companies are externally credit-rated. The Group reviews these external ratings from credit agencies.

The remaining percentage as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 of the outstanding unimpaired trade receivables (neither past due nor impaired) relate to sales to a dispersed large quantity of customers for which external credit ratings may not be available. However, the total base of customers without an external credit rating is relatively stable.

New customers with less than six months of history with the Group are closely monitored. The Group has not experienced credit problems with these new customers to date. The majority of the customers for which an external credit rating is not available are existing customers with more than six months of history with the Group and with no defaults in the past. A minor percentage of customers may have experienced some non-significant defaults in the past but fully recovered.

| 24. | Legal and other reserves

According to the laws of certain of the countries in which the Group operates, a portion of the profit of the year (5%) is separated to constitute legal reserves until they reach legal capped amounts. These legal reserves are not available for dividend distribution and can only be released to absorb losses. The legal limit of these reserves has not been met.

Legal and other reserves amount to US$ 45,080 as of December 31, 2016 (2015: US$ 44,540) and are included within the balance of retained earnings in the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity.

The Company may make distributions in the form of dividends or otherwise to the extent that it has distributable retained earnings or available distributable reserves (including share premium) that result from the Stand Alone Financial Statements prepared in accordance with Luxembourg GAAP. No distributable retained earning result from the Stand Alone Financial Statements of the Company as of December 31, 2015, but the Company has distributable reserves in excess of US$ 920,171.

The Group is subject to several laws, regulations and business practices of the countries where it operates. In the ordinary course of business, the Group is subject to certain contingent liabilities with respect to existing or potential claims, lawsuits and other proceedings, including those involving tax, labor and social security, administrative and civil and other matters. The Group accrues liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and it can reasonably estimate them. The Group bases its accruals on up-to-date developments, estimates of the outcomes of the matters and legal counsel experience in contesting, litigating and settling matters. As the scope of the liabilities becomes better defined or more information is available, the Group may be required to change its estimates of future costs, which could have a material effect on its results of operations and financial condition or liquidity.

The Group as lessee

Operating leases:

The Group leases land for crop cultivation in Argentina. The leases have an average term of a crop year and are renewable at the option of the lessee for additional periods. Under the lease agreements, rent accrues generally at the time of harvest. Rent is payable at several times during the crop year. Lease expense was US$ 6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 (2015: US$ 10.8 million; 2014: US$ 12.8 million). Lease expense is capitalized as part of biological assets.

The Group also leases various offices and machinery under cancellable operating lease agreements which involve no significant amount.

The future aggregate minimum lease payments under cancellable operating leases are as follows:

|  | 2016 |  | 2015
No later than 1 year |  |  | 5,311 |  |  |  | 5,370 |
Later than 1 year and no later than 5 years |  |  | 2,294 |  |  |  | 141 |

Agriculture “partnerships” (parceria by its exact term in Portuguese):

The Group enters into contracts with landowners to cultivate sugarcane on their land. These contracts have an average term of 5 years.

Under these contracts, the Group makes payments based on the market value of sugarcane per hectare (in tons) used by the Group in each harvest, with the market value based on the price of sugarcane published by CONSECANA and a fixed amount of total recoverable sugar per ton. Lease expense was US$ 64.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 (2015: US$ 53.41 million; 2014: US$ 65.0 million). Lease expense is included in “Initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce” in the statement of income.

On September 2013, Marfrig Argentina S.A. (“Marfrig Argentina”), the argentine subsidiary of the Brazilian company Marfrig Alimentos S.A. (“Marfrig Alimentos"), unilaterally early terminated the lease agreements for grazing land entered into with the Group on December 2009. The termination of the lease agreements was effective in the fourth quarter of 2013, and on April 2014, the Group filed an arbitration proceeding against Marfrig Argentina and Marfrig Alimentos claiming unpaid invoices for US$ 0.5 million and indemnification for early termination. On September 2016, the Parties settled the arbitration proceedings in the amount of US$ 9 million. As of December 31 2016 the group collected US$ 7 million and as of the date of this financial statements the group has collected the full amount.

This settlement, net of the unpaid invoices and other expenses resulted in an income of US$ 8.5 million reflected in the line item Other operating income.

| 32. | Summary of significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

| 32.1 | Basis of preparation and presentation

The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC). All IFRS issued by the IASB, effective at the time of preparing these consolidated financial statements have been applied.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss and biological assets and agricultural produce at the point of harvest measured at fair value.

In order to facilitate the understanding of our Consolidated Financial Statements, we have changed the format of the presentation of our income statement. During the fourth quarter of 2016, we aggregate our sales in a single line item titled “Sales of goods and services rendered”. Likewise, the corresponding cost has also been aggregated and presented as a single line item titled “Cost of goods sold and services rendered”. The breakdown of sales is now included in Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The comparative figures have been retroactively changed accordingly.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 32.

(a) Standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards effective and adopted by the Group in 2015

The following standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards have been published and were mandatory for the Group as of January 1, 2015:

All the amendments to the standards IAS 32, ‘Financial instruments: Presentation’ – Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities, IAS 36, ‘Impairment of assets’ – Recoverable amount disclosures for non-financial assets and IAS 39, ‘Financial instruments: Recognition and measurement’ – Novation of derivatives and continuation of hedge accounting have been analyzed by the Company. The application of these standards did not materially affect the Group’s financial position or results of operations.

Other standards, amendments and interpretations which are effective for the financial year beginning on 1 January 2015 are not material to the Group.

| § | Effects of the adoption of the amendments of IAS 41 and IAS 16

In June 2014, the IASB made amendments to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment and IAS 41 Agriculture which distinguish bearer plants from other biological assets. Bearer plants are solely used to grow produce over their productive lives and are seen to be similar to an item of machinery. They will therefore now be accounted for under IAS 16. However, agricultural produce growing on bearer plants will remain within the scope of IAS 41 and continue to be measured at fair value less cost to sell. The amendments shall be applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016, with earlier application permitted.

The Group’s sugarcane and coffee plantations qualify as bearer plants under the new definition in IAS 41. As required under IAS 8, the change in accounting policy applied retrospectively. As a consequence, the sugarcane planting and coffee plantations was reclassified to property, plant and equipment and measured at amortized cost and depreciated over their useful life on straight-line basis, effective January 1, 2016 and comparative figures retrospectively revised accordingly. The Group adopted the transitional rule which allows companies to apply fair value of bearer plants as their deemed cost as of January 1, 2014.

However, agricultural produce growing on sugarcane and coffee plantations will remain under the line biological asset and continue to be measured at fair value less cost to sell.

(b) Standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards that are not yet effective

Below is a description of the standards, amendments and interpretations issued by the IASB to existing standards that have been issued and are mandatory for the Group’s fiscal periods beginning after January 1, 2015 and which have not been early adopted by the Group:

In May 2014, the IASB issued IFRS 15, "Revenue from contracts with customers", which deals with revenue recognition and establishes principles for reporting useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of a good or service and thus has the ability to direct the use and obtain the benefits from the good or service. The standard replaces IAS 18 ‘Revenue’ and IAS 11 ‘Construction contracts’ and related interpretations. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 and earlier application is permitted. The Group has not yet assessed the potential impact IFRS 15 may have on the financial position and results of operations of the Group.

In July 2014 the IASB published the final version of IFRS 9 Financial Instrument which replaces earlier versions of IFRS 9 and completes the IASB’s project to replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. It includes requirements on the classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities, as well as an expected credit losses model that replaces the current incurred loss impairment model. The standard is effective for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Group has not yet assessed IFRS 9’s full impact on the financial position and results of operations of the Group.

In September 2014, the IASB issued the amendments to IFRS 10, “Consolidated financial statements” and IAS 28, “Investments in associates and joint ventures”, which addresses an acknowledged inconsistency between the requirements of both standards in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. These amendments must be applied on annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016. The Group is currently assessing the impact these amendments may have on the financial position and results of operations of the Group.

In January 2016, the IASB finished its long-standing project on lease accounting and published IFRS 16, ‘Leases’, which replaces the current guidance in IAS 17. This will require far-reaching changes in accounting by lessees in particular. The standard applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019, with earlier application permitted if IFRS 15, ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’, is also applied. The Group has not yet assessed the potential impact IFRS 16 may have on the financial position and results of operations of the Group.

There are no other IFRSs or IFRIC interpretations that are not yet effective that would be expected to have a material impact on the Group.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

(All amounts in US$ thousands, except shares and per share data and as otherwise indicated)

| 32.2 | Scope of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the results of the Company and all of its subsidiaries from the date that control commences to the date that control ceases. They also include the Group’s share of the net income of its jointly-controlled entities on an equity-accounted basis from the point at which joint control commences, to the date that it ceases.

(a) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date that control commences and deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.

The Group uses the acquisition method of accounting to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date.

The Group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s net assets.

The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

(b) Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries without change of control

Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions – that is, as transactions with the owners in their capacity as owners. The difference between the fair value of any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.

(c) Disposal of subsidiaries

When the Group ceases to have control any retained interest in the entity is re-measured to its fair value at the date when control is lost, with the change in carrying amount recognized in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amount previously recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity is accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

(d) Joint arrangements

Under IFRS 11, investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and obligations each investor has rather than the legal structure of the joint arrangement.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

(All amounts in US$ thousands, except shares and per share data and as otherwise indicated)

| 32.2 | Scope of consolidation (continued)

The Group has assessed the nature of its joint arrangements and determined them to be joint ventures and value them under the equity method.

Under the equity method of accounting, interests in joint ventures are initially recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group’s share of the post-acquisition of profits or losses and movements in other comprehensive income, respectively. When the share of losses of an investee equals or exceeds the carrying amount of an investment the Group discontinue applying the equity method, the investment is reduced to zero and does not record additional losses. If the investee subsequently reports net income, the Group would resume applying the equity method only after its share of that net income equals the share of net losses not recognized during the period the equity method was suspended.

Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and its joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the joint ventures. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of the joint ventures have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

| 32.3 | Segment reporting

According to IFRS 8, operating segments are identified based on the ‘management approach’. This approach stipulates external segment reporting based on the Group’s internal organizational and management structure and on internal financial reporting to the chief operating decision maker (the Management Committee in the case of the Company)

| 32.4 | Foreign currency translation

(a) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’). The consolidated financial statements are presented in US dollars, which is the Group’s presentation currency.

(b) Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the statement of income, in the line Item “Finance income” or “Finance cost”, as appropriate.

(c) Group companies

The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyper-inflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

| · | assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that statement of financial position;

| · | income and expenses for each statement of income are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); and

| · | all resulting exchange differences are recognized as a separate component of equity.

When a foreign operation is partially disposed of or sold, exchange differences that were recorded in equity are recognized in the statement of income as part of the gain or loss on sale.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

(All amounts in US$ thousands, except shares and per share data and as otherwise indicated)

| 32.5 | Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Historical cost comprises the purchase price and any costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Under the definition of Property plant and equipment is included the bearer plants, such as sugarcane and coffe trees.

Where individual components of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items, which are depreciated separately.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of income when they are incurred.

The depreciation methods and periods used by the group are disclosed in Note 12.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized within “Other operating income, net” in the statement of income.

| 32.6 | Investment property

Investment property consists of farmland for rental or for capital appreciation and not used in production or for sale in the ordinary course of business, and it is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses if any.

| 32.7 | Leases

The Group classifies its leases at the inception as finance or operating leases. Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases and charged to the statements of income in a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. Finance leases are capitalized at the lease’s inception at the lower of the fair value of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included as “Borrowings”

| 32.8 | Goodwill

Goodwill represents future economic benefits arising from assets that are not capable of being individually identified and separately recognized by the Group on an acquisition. Goodwill on acquisition is initially measured at cost. being the excess of the consideration over the fair value of the Group’s share of net assets of the acquired subsidiary undertaking at the acquisition date. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. It is allocated to those cash generating units expected to benefit from the acquisition for the purpose of impairment testing. Goodwill arising on the acquisition of subsidiaries is included within “Intangible assets” on the statement of financial position. Goodwill arising on the acquisition of foreign entities is treated as an asset of the foreign entity denominated in the local currency and translated at the closing rate.

Goodwill is not amortized but tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if there is an indication of impairment. Gains and losses on the disposal of a Group entity include any goodwill relating to the entity sold (see Note 32.10).

| 32.9 | Other intangible assets

Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group, which have finite useful lives, are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any. These intangible assets comprise trademarks and computer software and are amortized in the statement of income on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives estimated to be 10 to 20 years and 3 to 5 years, respectively.

| 32.10 | Impairment of assets

Goodwill

For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows, known as cash-generating units. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount of the unit, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset may in the unit. Impairment losses recognized for goodwill cannot be reversed in a subsequent period. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted (see Note 33 (a) for details).

Property, plant and equipment and finite lived intangible assets

At each statement of financial position date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment and other intangible assets which have finite lives to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent, if any, of the impairment loss. Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, that carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in the statement of income.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, not to exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in the statement of income.

| 32.11 | Biological assets

Biological assets comprise growing crops (mainly corn, wheat, soybeans, sunflower and rice), sugarcane, coffee and livestock (growing herd and cattle for dairy production).

The Group distinguishes between consumable and bearer biological assets, and between mature and immature biological assets. “Consumable” biological assets are those assets that may be harvested as agriculture produce or sold as biological assets, for example livestock intended for dairy production. “Bearer” biological assets are those assets capable of producing more than one harvest, for example sugarcane or livestock from which raw milk is produced. “Mature” biological assets are those that have attained harvestable specifications (for consumable biological assets) or are able to sustain regular harvests (for bearer biological assets). “Immature” biological assets are those assets other than mature biological assets.

Costs are capitalized as biological assets if, and only if, (a) it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity, and (b) the cost can be measured reliably. The Group capitalizes costs such as: planting, harvesting, weeding, seedlings, irrigation, agrochemicals, fertilizers and a systematic allocation of fixed and variable production overheads that are directly attributable to the management of biological assets, among others. Costs that are expensed as incurred include administration and other general overhead and unallocated production overhead, among others.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

| 32.11 | Biological assets (continued)

Biological assets, both at initial recognition and at each subsequent reporting date, are measured at fair value less costs to sell, except where fair value cannot be reliably measured. Cost approximates fair value when little biological transformation has taken place since the costs were originally incurred or the impact of biological transformation on price is not expected to be material.

Gains and losses that arise on measuring biological assets at fair value less costs to sell and measuring agricultural produce at the point of harvest at fair value less costs to sell are recognized in the statement of income in the period in which they arise in the line item “Initial recognition and changes in fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce”.

Where there is an active market for a biological asset or agricultural produce, quoted market prices in the most relevant market are used as a basis to determine the fair value. Otherwise, when there is no active market or market-determined prices are not available, fair value of biological assets is determined through the use of valuation techniques.

Therefore, the fair value of biological assets is generally derived from the expected discounted cash flows of the related agricultural produce. The fair value of the agricultural produce at the point of harvest is generally derived from market determined prices. A general description of the determination of fair values based on the Company’s business segments follow:

| · | Growing crops:

Growing crops, for which biological transformation is not significant, are measured at cost, which approximates fair value. Expenditure on growing crops includes land preparation expenses and other direct expenses incurred during the sowing period including labor, seedlings, agrochemicals and fertilizers among others.

Otherwise, biological assets are measured at fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs at initial recognition and at any subsequent period. Point-of-sale costs include all costs that would be necessary to sell the assets

The fair value of growing crops excluding sugarcane and coffee is measured based on a formula, which takes into consideration the estimated crop yields, estimated market prices and costs, and discount rates. Yields are determined based on several factors including location of farmland, environmental conditions and other restrictions and growth at the time of measurement. Yields are multiplied by sown hectares to determine the estimated tons of crops to be obtained. The tons are then multiplied by a net cash flow determined at the future crop prices less the direct costs to be incurred. This amount is discounted at a discount rate, which reflects current market assessments of the assets involved and the time value of money.

| · | Growing herd and cattle:

Livestock are measured at fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs, with any changes therein recognized in the statement of income, on initial recognition as well as subsequently at each reporting period. The fair value of livestock is determined based on the actual selling prices less estimated point-of-sale costs in the markets where the Group operates.

| · | Coffee:

The agricultural produce growing on the coffee trees, are biological assets, and are valued at fair value less cost to sell. Projected costs include maintenance, pruning, land leasing, harvesting and coffee treatment. These estimates are discounted at an appropriate discount rate.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

| 32.11. | Biological assets (continued)

| · | Sugarcane:

Sugarcane planting costs form part of Property plant and equipment. The agricultural produce growing on sugarcane is classified as biological assets and are measured at fair value less cost to sell. The fair value of agricultural produce growing on sugarcane depends on the variety, location and maturity of the plantation.

Agricultural produce growing in the Sugarcane, for which biological growth is not significant, is valued at cost, which approximates fair value. Expenditure on the agricultural produce growing in the sugarcane consists mainly of labor, agrochemicals and fertilizers among others. When it has attained significant biological growth, it is measured at fair value through a discounted cash flow model. Revenues are based on estimated yearly production volume (which will be destined to sugar, ethanol, energy and raw cane production) and the price is calculated as the average of daily prices for sugar future contracts (Sugar #11 ICE-NY contracts) for a six months period. Projected costs include maintenance and land leasing among others. These estimates are discounted at an appropriate discount rate.

| 32.12 | Inventories

Inventories comprise of raw materials, finished goods (including harvested agricultural produce and manufactured goods) and others.

Harvested agricultural produce (except for rice and milk) are measured at net realizable value until the point of sale because there is an active market in the produce, there is a negligible risk that the produce will not be sold and there is a well-established practice in the industry carrying the inventories at net realizable value. Changes in net realizable value are recognized in the statement of income in the period in which they arise under the line item “Changes in net realizable value of agricultural produce after harvest”.

All other inventories (including rice and milk) are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method.

| 32.13 | Financial assets

Financial assets are classified in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss and loans and receivables. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition (see Note 17).

(a) Recognition and measurement

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on the trade-date – the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the statement of income. Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the “financial assets at fair value through profit or loss” category are presented in the statement of income within “Other operating income, net” in the period in which they arise.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

(All amounts in US$ thousands, except shares and per share data and as otherwise indicated)

| 32.13 | Financial assets (continued)

If the market for a financial asset is not active (and for unlisted securities), the Group establishes fair value by using valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm’s length transactions, reference to other instruments that are substantially the same, discounted cash flow analysis, and option pricing models, making maximum use of market inputs and relying as little as possible on entity-specific inputs.

The Group assesses at each statement of financial position date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Impairment testing of trade receivables is described in Note 32.15.

(b) Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. This right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in any case.

| 32.14 | Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities

Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at their fair value. Commodity future contract fair values are computed with reference to quoted market prices on future exchanges markets. The fair values of commodity options are calculated using year-end market rates together with common option pricing models. The fair value of interest rate swaps has been calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis.

The Group manages exposures to financial and commodity risks using hedging instruments that provide the appropriate economic outcome. The principal hedging instruments used may include commodity future contracts, put and call options, foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swaps. The Group does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

The Group’s policy is to apply hedge accounting to hedging relationships where it is both permissible under IAS 39, practical to do so and its application reduces volatility, but transactions that may be effective hedges in economic terms may not always qualify for hedge accounting under IAS 39. Any derivatives that the Group holds to hedge these exposures are classified as “held for trading” and are shown in a separate line on the face of the statement of financial position. The method of recognizing gains or losses on derivatives depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. Gains and losses on commodity derivatives are classified within “Other operating income, net”. Gains and losses on interest rate and foreign exchange rate derivatives are classified within ‘Financial results, net’. The Group designates certain derivatives as hedges of the foreign currency risk associated with highly probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedge).

The Group documents at the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedging transactions. The Group also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the instruments that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of hedged items.

Cash flow hedge

The effective portion of the gain or loss on the instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the statement of income within "Finance income” or “Finance cost”, as appropriate.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

| 32.14 | Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities (continued)

Amounts accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss. The gain or loss relating to the effective portion is recognized in the statement of income within "Finance income” or “Finance cost”, as appropriate.

When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognized when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognized in the statement of income. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately transferred to the statement of income.

| 32.15 | Trade and other receivables and trade and other payables

Trade receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. In the case of receivables, less allowance for trade receivables.

An allowance for trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Such evidence includes significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganization, and default or delinquency in payments. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against selling expenses in the statement of income.

| 32.16 | Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. In the statements of cash flows, interest paid is presented within financing cash flows and interest received is presented within investing activities.

| 32.17 | Borrowings

Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Borrowing costs are capitalized during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use.

| 32.18 | Provisions

Provisions are recognized when (i) the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; (ii) it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and (iii) a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation.

| 32.19 | Onerous contracts

The Group enters into contracts, which require the Group to sell commodities in accordance with the Group's expected sales. These contracts do not qualify as derivatives. These contracts are not recognized until at least one of the parties has performed under the agreement. However, when the contracts are onerous, the Group recognizes the present obligation under the contracts as a provision included within “Provision and other liabilities” in the statement of financial position. Losses under these onerous contracts are recognized within “Other operating income, net” in the statement of income.

| 32.20 | Current and deferred income tax

The Group’s tax benefit or expense for each year comprises the charge for current tax payable and deferred taxation attributable to the Group’s operating subsidiaries. Tax is recognized in the statement of income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognized in equity.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted at the date of the statement of financial position in the countries where the Group’s subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

Deferred income tax is recognized, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) effective in the countries where the Group’s subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.

Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

The Group is able to control the timing of dividends from its subsidiaries and hence does not expect to remit overseas earnings in the foreseeable future in a way that would result in a charge to taxable profit. Hence deferred tax is recognized in respect of the retained earnings of overseas subsidiaries only to the extent that, at the date of the statement of financial position, dividends have been accrued as receivable or a binding agreement to distribute past earnings in future has been entered into by the subsidiary.

| 32.21 | Revenue recognition

The Group’s primary activities comprise agricultural and agro-industrial activities.

The Group’s agricultural activities comprise growing and selling agricultural produce. In accordance with IAS 41 “Agriculture”, cattle are measured at fair value with changes therein recognized in the statement of income as they arise. Agricultural produce is measured at net realizable value with changes therein recognized in the statement of income as they arise. Therefore, sales of agricultural produce and cattle generally do not generate any separate gains or losses in the statement of income. See Notes 32.11 and 32.12 for additional details.

The Group’s agro-industrial activities comprise the selling of manufactured products (i.e. industrialized rice, milk-related products, ethanol, sugar, energy, among others). These sales are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, trade and other discounts, and sales taxes, as applicable. Revenue is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably, and there is no continuing management involvement with the goods. Transfers of risks and rewards vary depending on the individual terms of the contract of sale.

The Group also provides certain agricultural-related services such as grain warehousing/conditioning and other services, e.g. handling and drying services. Revenue from services is recognized as services are provided.

The Group leases owned farmland property to third parties under operating lease agreements. Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

The Group is a party to a 10-year power agreement for the sale of electricity which expires in 2018. The delivery period starts in May and ends in November of each year. The Group is also a party to two 15-year power agreements which delivery period starts in March and ends in December of each year, these two agreements will expire in 2024 and 2025, respectively. Prices under all the agreements are adjusted annually for inflation. Revenue related to the sale of electricity under these two agreements is recorded based upon output delivered.

| 32.22 | Farmlands sales

The Group’s strategy is to profit from land appreciation value generated through the transformation of its productive capabilities. Therefore, the Group may seek to realize value from the sale of farmland assets and businesses.

Farmland sales are not recognized until (i) the sale is completed, (ii) the Group has determined that it is probable the buyer will pay, (iii) the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, and (iv) the Group has transferred to the buyer the risk of ownership, and does not have a continuing involvement. Gains from “farmland sales” are included in the statement of income under the line item “Other operating income, net”.

| 32.23 | Assets held for sale and discontinued operations

When the Group intends to dispose of, or classify as held for sale, a business component that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, or a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale, it classifies such operations as discontinued. The post tax profit or loss of the discontinued operations is shown as a single amount on the face of the statement of income, separate from the other results of the Group. Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying value and fair value less costs to sell.

Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered through a disposal rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when management is committed to the sale (disposal), the sale (disposal) is highly probable and expected to be completed within one year from classification and the asset is available for immediate sale (disposal) in its present condition. The statements of income for the comparative periods are represented to show the discontinued operations separate from the continuing operations.

| 32.24 | Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income for the year attributable to equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, and when dilutive, adjusted for the effect of all potentially dilutive shares, including share options, on an as-if converted basis.

| 32.25 | Equity-settled share-based payments

The Group issues equity settled share-based payments to certain directors, senior management and employees. Options under the awards were measured at fair value at the date of grant. An expense is recognized to spread the fair value of each award over the vesting period on a straight-line basis, after allowing for an estimate of the awards that will eventually vest. The estimate of the level of vesting is reviewed at least annually, with any impact on the cumulative charge being recognized immediately.

| 32.26 | Research and development

Research phase expenditure is expensed as incurred. Development expenditure is capitalized as an internally generated intangible asset only if it meets strict criteria, relating in particular to technical feasibility and generation of future economic benefits. Research expenses have been immaterial to date. The Group has not capitalized any development expenses to date.

| 33. | Critical accounting estimates and judgments

Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of the Group’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and require management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that it believes are reasonable. The Group’s critical accounting policies are discussed below.

Actual results could differ from estimates used in employing the critical accounting policies and these could have a material impact on the Group’s results of operations. The Group also has other policies that are considered key accounting policies, such as the policy for revenue recognition. However, these other policies, which are discussed in the notes to the Group’s financial statements, do not meet the definition of critical accounting estimates, because they do not generally require estimates to be made or judgments that are difficult or subjective.

(a)Impairment testing

At the date of each statement of financial position, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment and finite lived intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent, if any, of the impairment loss. Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The Group’s property, plant and equipment items generally do not generate independent cash flows.

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired. The impairment review requires management to undertake certain judgments, including estimating the recoverable value of the CGU to which the goodwill relates, based on either fair value less costs-to-sell or the value-in-use, as appropriate, in order to reach a conclusion on whether it deems the goodwill is impaired or not.

For purposes of the impairment testing, each CGU represents the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group of assets.

Farmlands may be used for different activities that may generate independent cash flows. When farmlands are used for single activities (i.e. crops), these are considered as one CGU. When farmland businesses are used for more than one segment activity (i.e. crops and cattle or rental income), the farmland is further subdivided into two or more CGUs, as appropriate, for purposes of impairment testing. Generally, each separate farmland within Argentina and Uruguay are treated as single CGUs, while in Brazil, management identified a farmland together with its related mill as separate CGUs.

Based on these criteria, management identified a total amount of 39 CGUs as of September 30, 2016 and thirty-eight CGUs as of September 30, 2015.

As of September 30, 2016 and 2015, there were no impairment indicators on the Company’s long lived assets. Therefore, the Group only tested those CGUs with allocated goodwill in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay.

CGUs tested based on a fair-value-less-costs-to-sell model at September 30, 2016 and 2015:

As of September 30, 2016, the Group identified 11 CGUs in Argentina and Uruguay (2015: 11 CGUs) to be tested based on this model (all CGUs with allocated goodwill). Estimating the fair value less costs-to-sell is based on the best information available, and refers to the amount at which the CGU could be bought or sold in a current transaction between willing parties. In calculating the fair value less costs-to-sell, management may be assisted by the work of external advisors. When using this model, the Group applies the “sales comparison approach” as its method of valuing most properties. This method relies on results of sales of similar agricultural properties to estimate the value of the CGU. This approach is based on the theory that the fair value of a property is directly related to the selling prices of similar properties.

| 33. | Critical accounting estimates and judgments (continued)

Fair values are determined by extensive analysis which includes current and potential soil productivity of the land (the ability to produce crops and maintain livestock) projected margins derived from soil use, rental value obtained for soil use, if applicable, and other factors such as climate and location. Farmland ratings are established by considering such factors as soil texture and quality, yields, topography, drainage and rain levels. Farmland may contain farm outbuildings. A farm outbuilding is any improvement or structure that is used for farming operations. Outbuildings are valued based on their size, age and design.

Based on the factors described above, each farm property is assigned different soil classifications for the purposes of establishing a value, Soil classifications quantify the factors that contribute to the agricultural capability of the soil. Soil classifications range from the most productive to the least productive.

The first step to establishing an assessment for a farm property is a sales investigation that identifies the valid farm sales in the area where the farm is located.

A price per hectare is assigned for each soil class within each farm property. This price per hectare is determined based on the quantitative and qualitative analysis mainly described above.

The results are then tested against actual sales, if any, and current market conditions to ensure the values produced are accurate, consistent and fair.

The following table shows only the 11 CGUs (2015: 11 CGUs) where goodwill was allocated at each period end and the corresponding amount of goodwill allocated to each one:

CGU / Operating segment / Country |  | September 30, 2016 |  | September 30, 2015
La Carolina / Crops / Argentina |  |  | 40 |  |  |  | 64 |
La Carolina / Cattle / Argentina |  |  | 13 |  |  |  | 22 |
El Orden/ Crops / Argentina |  |  | 60 |  |  |  | 97 |
El Orden/ Cattle / Argentina |  |  | 5 |  |  |  | 8 |
La Guarida / Crops / Argentina |  |  | 405 |  |  |  | 658 |
La Guarida / Cattle / Argentina |  |  | 330 |  |  |  | 536 |
Los Guayacanes / Crops / Argentina |  |  | 511 |  |  |  | 830 |
Doña Marina / Rice / Argentina |  |  | 1,803 |  |  |  | 2,930 |
Huelen / Crops / Argentina |  |  | 2,020 |  |  |  | 3,283 |
El Colorado / Crops / Argentina |  |  | 890 |  |  |  | 1,446 |
El Colorado / Cattle / Argentina |  |  | 130 |  |  |  | 211 |
Closing net book value of goodwill allocated to CGUs tested (Note 14) |  |  | 6,207 |  |  |  | 10,085 |
Closing net book value of PPE items and other assets allocated to CGUs tested |  |  | 36,901 |  |  |  | 54,272 |
Total assets allocated to CGUs tested |  |  | 43,108 |  |  |  | 64,357 |

Based on the testing above, the Group determined that none of the CGUs, with allocated goodwill, were impaired at September 30, 2016 and 2015.

CGUs tested based on a value-in-use model at September 30, 2016 and 2015:

As of September 30, 2016, the Group identified 3 CGUs (2015: 3 CGUs) in Brazil to be tested base on this model (all CGUs with allocated goodwill). In performing the value-in-use calculation, the Group applied pre-tax rates to discount the future pre-tax cash flows. In each case, these key assumptions have been made by management reflecting past experience and are consistent with relevant external sources of information, such as appropriate market data. In calculating value-in-use, management may be assisted by the work of external advisors.

The key assumptions used by management in the value-in-use calculations which are considered to be most sensitive to the calculation are:

Key Assumptions |  | September 30, 2016 |  | September 30, 2015
Financial projections |  | Covers 4 years for UMA |  | Covers 4 years for UMA
|  | Cover 7 years for AVI |  | Cover 7 years for AVI
Yield average growth rates |  | 0-1% |  | 0-1%
Future pricing increases |  | 3% per annum |  | 1% per annum
Future cost increases |  | 3% per annum |  | 1% per annum
Discount rates |  | 6.22% |  | 6.5%
Perpetuity growth rate |  | 2.% |  | 2%

Discount rates are based on the risk-free rate for U. S. government bonds, adjusted for a risk premium to reflect the increased risk of investing in South America and Brazil in particular. The risk premium adjustment is assessed for factors specific to the respective CGUs and reflects the countries that the CGUs operate in.

The following table shows only the 3 CGUs where goodwill was allocated at each period end and the corresponding amount of goodwill allocated to each one:

CGU/ Operating segment |  | September 30, 2016 |  | September 30, 2015
AVI / Sugar, Ethanol and Energy |  |  | 4,892 |  |  |  | 3,997 |
UMA / Sugar, Ethanol and Energy |  |  | 2,564 |  |  |  | 2,122 |
Closing net book value of goodwill allocated to CGUs tested (Note 14) |  |  | 7,456 |  |  |  | 6,119 |
Closing net book value of PPE items and other assets allocated to CGUs tested |  |  | 689,857 |  |  |  | 554,688 |
Total assets allocated to 3 CGUs tested |  |  | 697,313 |  |  |  | 560,807 |

Based on the testing above, the Group determined that none of the CGUs, with allocated goodwill, were impaired at September 30, 2016 and 2015.

Management views these assumptions as conservative and does not believe that any reasonable change in the assumptions would cause the carrying value of these CGU’s to exceed the recoverable amount.

(b) Biological assets

The nature of the Group’s biological assets and the basis of determination of their fair value are explained under Note 32.11. The discounted cash flow model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including observable and unobservable data. Generally the estimation of the fair value of biological assets is based on models or inputs that are not observable in the market and the use of unobservable inputs is significant to the overall valuation of the assets. Unobservable inputs are determined based on the best information available, for example by reference to historical information of past practices and results, statistical and agronomical information, and other analytical techniques. Key assumptions include future market prices, estimated yields at the point of harvest, estimated production cycle, future cash flows, future costs of harvesting and other costs, and estimated discount rate.

Market prices are generally determined by reference to observable data in the principal market for the agricultural produce. Harvesting costs and other costs are estimated based on historical and statistical data. Yields are estimated based on several factors including the location of the farmland and soil type, environmental conditions, infrastructure and other restrictions and growth at the time of measurement. Yields are subject to a high degree of uncertainty and may be affected by several factors out of the Group’s control including but not limited to extreme or unusual weather conditions, plagues and other crop diseases, among other factors.

The key assumptions discussed above are highly sensitive. Reasonable shifts in assumptions including but not limited to increases or decreases in prices, costs and discount factors used would result in a significant increase or decrease to the fair value of biological assets. In addition, cash flows are projected over a number of years and based on estimated production. Estimates of production in themselves are dependent on various assumptions, in addition to those described above, including but not limited to several factors such as location, environmental conditions and other restrictions. Changes in these estimates could materially impact on estimated production, and could therefore affect estimates of future cash flows used in the assessment of fair value (see Note 15).

(c) Fair value of derivatives and other financial instruments

Fair values of derivative financial instruments are computed with reference to quoted market prices on trade exchanges, when available. The fair values of commodity options are calculated using year-end market rates together with common option pricing models. The fair value of interest rate swaps has been calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis.

(d) Income taxes

The Group is subject to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining the worldwide provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Group recognizes liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the period in which such determination is made.

Deferred tax assets are reviewed each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be settled. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment (see Note 10 for details).

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.
