WHO WE ARE
We are one of Brazil’s leading producers of agricultural commodities, specializing in the cultivation of cotton, soybeans, and corn. Our operations also include cattle raising, utilizing integrated crop-livestock (ICL) and crop-livestock-forestry (ICLF) systems to promote sustainable agriculture. Under the SLC Sementes brand, we produce and market high-quality soybean and cotton seeds.
Established in June 1977, our Company now operates 26 production units across eight Brazilian states, with our headquarters based in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul. For the 2025/26 season, we project a planted area surpassing 830,000 hectares. SLC Agrícola is one of the first agribusiness companies to have its shares traded on the Brazilian stock exchange B3 (under the SLCE3 ticker symbol), and we are a component of some of B3’s main indexes, such as IBOVESPA, IBRX100, and ISE.
