Frequently Asked Technical Questions
What are the primary specifications of Argentine soybeans exported by United Saud Argentina?
Our standard export-grade Argentine yellow soybeans typically feature a protein content between 34% and 36%, maximum moisture of 13.5%–14%, maximum foreign matter of 2%, and high oil content (~18.5%–20%), making them ideal for crushing and industrial extraction. We also supply certified Non-GMO food-grade varieties (up to 38% protein, <1% foreign matter) and animal feed-grade parcels as contracted.
Do you supply both GMO and Non-GMO Argentine soybeans?
Yes. In Argentina, commercial grain production includes both standard biotechnology-derived (GMO) soybeans favored by crushers and feed millers globally, as well as identity-preserved, segregated Non-GMO soybeans with PCR testing validation for human food manufacturing, soy milk, and specialty markets.
From which ports in Argentina do you ship?
Our primary shipping origins are the deepwater river ports along the Paraná River waterway—specifically the Rosario and San Lorenzo / Puerto General San Martín hub—where the majority of Argentina's grain terminals are concentrated. For larger drafts and Atlantic maritime routes, we also coordinate loadings through the deepwater ocean ports of Bahía Blanca and Quequén/Necochea, as well as containerized FCL shipments from Buenos Aires.
