Agribusiness Law

In agribusiness the legal problem almost always shows up at the worst moment: an embargo the week before planting, a pending environmental registration blocking credit, a farm without georeferencing just as it is needed as security. We advise rural producers, agro-industries, input distributors and investors on those four fronts: licences, title, security and tax.

Land and environmental regularisation

• Administrative defence against infraction notices, fines and embargoes before IBAMA and state environmental authorities;
• Rural Environmental Registry (CAR), conduct adjustment agreements and licensing of agricultural and agro-industrial activities;
• Georeferencing and titling of rural properties before INCRA, land registries and state land agencies.

Agricultural finance and capital markets

• Structuring and review of Rural Product Notes (CPR), CDCA, CRA and Fiagro funds;
• Barter transactions (inputs exchanged for production) with in rem security, agricultural pledge and fiduciary transfer;
• Rural lease and partnership agreements under the Brazilian Land Statute.

Dealings with government

Tenders for the supply of inputs, machinery, school meals and logistics; infrastructure concessions and PPPs for crop transport; rebalancing of public contracts affected by weather, pests or market swings.

Rural assets and taxation

Rural holding companies and family governance, planning generational transition without halting operations; tax alignment for individual and corporate producers, rural land tax (ITR), FUNRURAL and export tax benefits.
