(i)	to contain or delay the spread of COVID-19, the Brazilian Ministry of Health, as well as several state and municipal authorities have adopted or recommended social distancing measures, which may ultimately result in severe fines/penalties;

(ii)

in March 2020, the Brazilian government created a Crisis Committee to Monitor the Impacts of COVID-19 in Brazil. Since then, it has announced several measures (tax or otherwise) to adress the effects of COVID-19 in Brazil. Likewise, the Brazilian Congress is currently discussing several measures to increase the Brazilian government’s revenues, such as imposing new taxes, revoking tax benefits and increasing the rates of current taxes, including the following:

◦	creating a new tax as a Compulsory Loan (“Empréstimo Compulsório”) that would be imposed on companies whose net equity exceeds the amount to be established by law. A compulsory loan is a refundable federal tax that can be established in case of war or public calamity. The terms of this new tax are not yet clear, so we cannot predict the possible impacts on us; and

◦	revoke the tax exemption granted to dividend distributions paid by Brazilian companies, which could affect the return of our investments, as well as of our shareholders.

(iii)	States and municipalities may also revoke tax benefits and/or increase the rates of current taxes to increase its revenues. See “— We receive certain tax benefits from Brazilian Tax Authorities which we cannot assure will be maintained or renewed;” and

(iv)	the Brazilian Congress is currently discussing a Bill which, if approved, will impose mandatory and temporary postponement the term of rural leases on certain situations, preventing lessors from terminating such agreements and filing for repossession of the leased land.

•	one of the largest owners of productive farmland in South America, with more than 190,000 owned productive hectares as of December 31, 2019 (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 2018/2019 harvest year, we harvested 181,461 hectares (including 86,307 leased hectares and 31,127 second crop hectares) and produced 652,169 tons of grains, including soybeans, corn, wheat, sunflower, peanut and cotton, among others;

•

one of the largest fully integrated producers of rough (unprocessed) rice in the world, planting 39,308 hectares (including 1,700 leased hectares) and producing 239,779 tons during the 2018/19 harvest year, which accounted for 22% 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 47% of total Argentine white rice exports during 2019 (33% of total paddy basis), 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 120.1 million liters of raw milk during 2019, adding value in our processing facilities and a leading retailer of dairy products, including two popular brands, “Las Tres Niñas” and “Angelita.”

•

a growing producer of sugar and ethanol in Brazil, where we currently own three sugar and ethanol mills, with an aggregate installed capacity of 14.2 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, 2019. Our operation is highly integrated, meaning that 96% of the sugarcane crushed at our mills is supplied from our own plantations. As of December 31, 2019, our sugarcane plantation consisted of 166,041 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. During the last thirteen fiscal years, we have consistently sold a portion of our fully mature farmland every year. In aggregate, we have sold close to 97,500 hectares generating capital gains of approximately $240 million.

•

Crop business: We produce a wide range of agricultural commodities including soybeans, corn, wheat, sunflower, peanut 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 2018/2019 harvest year, we planted approximately 185,807 hectares of crops, including second harvests, producing 649,108 tons of grains, including soybeans, wheat, corn, sunflower, cotton and peanut among others. We also planted an additional 5,828 hectares where we produced over 212,500 tons of forage that we used for cow feed in our dairy operation. During the current 2019/20 harvest year, we planted approximately 194,518 hectares of crops, including second harvest, and also planted an additional 6,338 hectares of forage. As part of the crops business, in 2019 we completed the acquisition of one peanut processing facility which produces raw and blanched peanut mostly sold in the export market; and we became full owners of one sunflower processing facility producing confectionary and bakery sunflower.

•

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 239,779 tons during the 2018/2019 harvest year, which accounted for 22% 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 under our own brand; and exported. During the current 2019/20 harvest year, we planted 41,544 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 raw milk, we are able to transform forage and grains into value-added animal protein. Our free-stall dairies in Argentina allow 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 raw milk. We produced 120.1 million liters of raw milk during 2019, with a daily average of 9,066 milking cows, delivering an average of 36.3 liters of milk per cow per day. On October, 2017 we completed the construction of our first bio-digestor with 1.4MWH of installed capacity. The facility generates electricity by burning biogas extracted from the effluents produced by our milking cows. In addition to increasing revenues and securing our energy requirements, this facility enhances the sustainability of our free-stall dairy operation by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, improving the effluent management and concentrating valuable nutrients which are applied back to the fields. In 2019 we acquired two milk processing facilities which produce UHT and UP milk, milk powder and semi-hard cheese with flexibility to sell into both the domestic and export market based on relative profitability. During 2019 our facilities produced 69 million liters of fluid milk, over 1,500 tons of semi-hard cheese and over 7,700 tons of milk powder.

•	All Other Segments business: Our all other segments business consists of leasing pasture land to cattle farmers in Argentina. We lease over 13,546 hectares of pasture land which is not suitable for crop production to third party cattle farmers.

(1)	Includes soybeans, corn, wheat, sunflower and cotton, among others.

(2)	Sales of processed rice, including rough rice purchased from third parties and processed in our facilities.

(3)	All Other Segments encompasses our remaining interests in the beef Cattle and Coffee businesses. Our beef cattle business consists of over 55 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.

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.

•	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 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. Additionally we recently acquired two milk processing facilities strategically located. Our Morteros facility is located in the northeast of Córdoba province, an important milk production basin in Argentina. Our Chivilcoy facility is situated north of Buenos Aires province, approximately 250km away from Adecoagro’s freestalls and 160 km from Buenos Aires, the country’s main consumption market.

•	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 raw 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 y of clean and renewable energy; (iii) has the capacity of processing 55,200 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, raw 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.

•

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 $740 million and sold close to 97,500 hectares of developed land, generating capital gains of approximately $240 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.

•

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 believe that the execution risk associated with these projects is not expected to be significant as we are investing in existing operations that are highly efficient. Also our expected results do not rely exclusively on rising commodity prices, which we expect to remain constant at current levels.

•

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, by ramping up production in our Ivinhema and Angelica mills, which as of December 2019 reached a nominal capacity of 14.2 million tons per year. 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) one centralized management team, reducing total administration cost 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

•

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.

•

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, 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.

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 erof 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 about 70 thousand hectares of undeveloped land into productive croppable land.

•	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-

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.

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, handling and drying services to third parties and the purchase and sale of crops produced by 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 Company´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 raw milk; and industrialized products, including UHT, cheese and powder milk among others.

•	A $34.0 million increase in our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy segment from a loss of $20.9 million in 2018 (of which $37.8 million were unrealized losses) to a gain of $13.1 million during the same period in 2019 (which includes $0.9 million of unrealized losses). This increase was mainly due to:

–	A $36.9 million increase in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of non-harvested sugarcane, from a loss of $37.8 million in 2018 to a loss of $0.9 million in 2019, mainly generated by a decrease in projected sugar prices during 2018, compared to an increase in projected sugar prices in 2019, coupled with increase in sugarcane area.

–	A $2.9 million decrease in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of harvested sugarcane, from a gain of $16.9 million during 2018 to a gain of $14.0 million in 2019 due to the decrease in sugarcane yields.

•	a $8.0 million increase in our Dairy segment, mainly due to the increase in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of fluid milk, from $5.5 million in 2018 (of which $7.9 million were realized) to $13.5 million in 2019 (of which $17.7 million were realized), mainly due to:

–

A $9.8 million increase in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of realized production, from $7.9 million during 2018 to $17.7 million in 2019, mainly due to (i) a 19.6% increase in milking cows, from 7,581 average heads in 2018 to 9,066 average heads in 2019 as we are completing capacity of our third free-stall; and (ii) higher milk selling prices, from 0.28 dollar per liter in 2018 to 0.31 dollar per liter in 2019.

–	A $3.4 million decrease in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of unrealized production, from a loss of $0.6 million in 2018 to a loss of $4.0 million in the same period in 2019, mainly due to a 73.5% higher depreciation of the Argentine Peso during 2018, compared to the same period in 2019, which impacts on the valuation of the cow herd.

•	A $8.1 million increase in our Rice segment, from $4.1 million during 2018 to $12.2 million in 2019. This increase is due to:

–	A negative impact of $4.8 million effect of hyperinflation accounting and translation for our Argentine operations during 2018, compared to a negative impact of $1.0 million in 2019.

–	A $2.6 million increase in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of non-harvested rice, from a loss of $3.9 million in 2018 to a loss of $1.3 million in 2019, mainly explained by higher projected prices.

–	A $1.7 million increase in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of harvested rice at the point of harvest, from $12.8 million in 2018 (of which $9.1 million were realized) to $14.5 million during the same period in 2019 (of which $12.7 million were realized), mainly explained by lower costs in dollar terms, due to the Argentine Peso real depreciation during the last year

•	A $1.0 million increase in our Crops segment from $28.7 million during 2018 (of which $28.2 million were realized) to $29.7 million in 2019 (of which $24.2 million were realized). This increase is primarily due to:

–	A negative impact of $7.8 million effect of hyperinflation accounting and translation for our Argentine operations during 2018 compared to a negative impact of $0.5 million during the same period in 2019.

–	The recognition at fair value less cost to sell of non-harvested crops, increased $4.4 million, from a loss of $2.2 million in 2018 to a gain of $2.2 million in 2019, mainly due to favorable weather conditions in the humid pampas which increased expected yields for corn.

–	A decrease of $10.5 million in the recognition at fair value less cost to sell of harvested crops at the point of harvest, from $38.6 million in 2018 to $28.1 million in the same period in 2019, mainly due to lower local commodities prices at the

Sales decreased $99.7 million in our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy segment, mainly due to: (i) 23.5% lower prices of sugar, from $371.6 per ton in 2017 to $284.3 per ton in 2018; (ii) a 8.3% decrease in the price of ethanol, from $549.6 per cubic meter in 2017 to $503.8 per cubic meter in 2018; (iii) a 13.2% decrease in the volume of energy sold, from 860.8 MWh in 2017 to 747.2 MWh in 2018; and (iv) a 2.5% decrease in the volume of sugar and ethanol sold, measured in TRS (Total Recoverable Sugar), from 1.60 million tons in 2017 to 1.56 million tons in 2018. The decrease in volume of sugar and ethanol sold was due to inventories build-up, of 48.8 thousand tons measured in TRS during 2018 compared to an inventories sell-off of 36.4 thousand tons measured in TRS in 2017. This was partially offset by a 11.8% increase year-over-year in sugarcane milled, from 10.2 million tons during 2017 to 11.4 million tons in 2018 due to (i) a 2.7% increase in milling per hour from 2,074 tons per hour in 2017 to 2,130 tons per hour in 2018 due to enhancements and investments at industrial level in concordance with the long term plan of the company; (ii) increase in effective milling days from 221 days in 2017, to 231 days in 2018, due to adequate weather conditions; and (iii) a 4.9% increase in sugarcane yields, from 85.1 tons per hectare in 2017 to 89.3 tons per hectare in 2018, that ensured cane availability.

Sales decreased $41.8 million in our Crops segment mainly driven by: (i) a $9.1 million effect of hyperinflation accounting and translation in 2018 for our Argentine operations; (ii) a 6.5% decrease in the volume of soybean sold, from 282.5 thousand tons in 2017 to 264.1 thousand tons in 2018; and (iii) a 59.5% decrease in the volume of corn sold, from 599.1 thousand tons in 2017 to 242.5 thousand tons in 2018. The decrease in the volume of soybean and corn sold was mainly driven by lower yields, from 2.7 tons per hectare in 2017 to 2.1 tons per hectare in 2018 for soybean and from 5.4 tons per hectare in 2017 to 4.2 tons per hectare in 2018 for corn. Variation in yields was caused by dry weather conditions during January and March of 2018, which is the critical period for water requirement and development of the crops, affecting mainly north and center regions of Argentina, and Uruguay. This decrease was partially offset by (i) higher sales volumes of wheat, from 103.6 thousand tons in 2017 to 174.5 thousand tons in 2018; (ii) higher prices of soybean, from $302.7 per ton in 2017 to $318.9 per ton in 2018 due to higher proportion of FOB sales; (iii) higher prices of corn, from $143.9 per ton in 2017, to $159.3 per ton in 2018; and (iv) greater selling prices of wheat, from $161.5 per ton in 2017 to $187.4 per ton in 2018.
