Chaco Region: Paraguay's Livestock Powerhouse — Region del Chaco: Potencia Ganadera del Paraguay
Paraguay's Chaco region, covering 60% of the national territory, is one of South America's most dynamic livestock frontiers. The region's cattle herd has grown dramatically, with over 10 million head grazing across the dry and wet Chaco. As ranchers intensify production systems, demand for high-quality supplementary forage like alfalfa is surging. The Chaco's hot, semi-arid climate (average 25-35C) requires heat-tolerant, non-dormant alfalfa varieties. Kohenoor's TAIZTAR (FD 10) and CUF-101 (FD 9) excel under these conditions, providing protein-rich feed that boosts weight gain and reproductive performance in beef cattle.
Paraguay's Booming Livestock Sector — El Sector Ganadero en Auge de Paraguay
Paraguay is South America's sixth-largest cattle producer with a national herd exceeding 14 million head — more cattle than people. The country is a major beef exporter to Chile, Russia, and Brazil. The livestock sector contributes approximately 10% of GDP, and government programs actively promote improved pasture management and supplementary feeding. Paraguay's dairy sector, centered in the departments of Itapua, Caaguazu, and Central, is also growing rapidly. Alfalfa's superior protein content makes it the premium forage choice for both beef finishing and dairy production in Paraguay.
River Port Logistics & SENAVE Requirements — Logistica Portuaria Fluvial y Requisitos SENAVE
As a landlocked nation, Paraguay relies on the Paraguay-Parana waterway system for international trade. Kohenoor ships via the river ports of Asuncion and Villeta, or through Buenos Aires with overland transit to Paraguay. All shipments are 100% dodder-free (libre de cuscuta) with complete documentation meeting SENAVE (Servicio Nacional de Calidad y Sanidad Vegetal y de Semillas) phytosanitary requirements. Seeds ship under HS Code 120921 with phytosanitary certificates, lab reports, and certificates of origin.
