While Spring Break often means vacations and beach trips, a group of students from the UT Institute of Agriculture seized the opportunity to spend their break studying abroad in Argentina! Our study-abroad Vols learned more about the importance of beef, dairy, and row crops supply chains in Argentina.
The students hit the ground running, with strategic visits that included:
- ACA port—Argentina’s cooperatives association
- Rosario stock exchange
- Adecoagro—a 14,000-cow dairy
- AACREA—Argentine Association of Regional Consortiums for Agricultural Experimentation
- Buenos Aires Board of Trade
- Livestock, dairy, corn, and soybean farms and processor
- Bio4
- Villa Maria Cheese and dairy cluster
AREC professor Chris Boyer accompanied our students to Argentina.
This study abroad will continue in Spring 2024. Students can learn more at UTIA’s Smith Center for International Sustainable Agricultural.
