Argentina was once called the “bread basket of the
world”. The country produced enough food to feed its population ten
times over. Today Argentina is known as “The Soya Republic”. Half
of the country’s arable land is dedicated to the growth of soya.
Soya is the nation’s economic lifeline and its
biggest export, accounting for around a quarter of the country’s
income. Ninety-five percent of the soya produced here is for export.
The produce is mostly sent to Europe and South-East Asia.
