The Farming and Land Transformation businesses’increased 2.6% in 2011 compared to 2010, from $65.7 million to $67.4 million. This increase is primarily explained by an increase in planted area and favorable commodity prices. The Sugar, Ethanol and Energy business delivered solid performance throughout 2011. A total of 4.2 million tons of sugarcane were crushed in our two mills, generating an Adjusted EBITDA of $109.5 million and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 42.3%, outperforming 2010 by 111.7% and 67.0% respectively. Consolidated Net Income in 2011 totaled $56.9 million, $101.7 million more than 2010, mainly due to the better operating performance delivered by our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy business line. Net income in 2010 had been negatively impacted by a $95.3 million non-cash-loss resulting from the mark to market of our long term biological assets, primarily our sugarcane plantations. Market Overview The fourth quarter of 2011 began with expectations for a record-high production of corn and soybean for the 2011/12 harvest year in South America. Combined with fears for a weaker global macroeconomic environment and a stronger US dollar, commodity investors shortened their position forcing commodity prices lower through early December. Persistent dry weather in the early stages of the growing season in South America and resultant concerns for crop production potential, allowed grain prices to recover approximately 10% at the end of the year. Continued concerns for production disruptions have further supported grain prices in early 2012. Regarding the sugar market, the fourth quarter was dominated by downward price pressure caused by expectations of good beet and sugarcane harvests in the northern hemisphere (Russia, EU, Thailand and India) and concerns about the world economy. The pressure was somewhat mitigated by tight ethanol supply and demand in Brazil, caused by lower-than-expected production, pushing overall prices higher earlier in the harvest season. Strategy Execution Sugar, Ethanol and Energy Expansion The construction of Ivinhema mill is well advanced and on schedule. In the first phase of construction Ivinhema will reach a nominal sugarcane crushing capacity of 2.0 million tons. The boiler has already been delivered on-site and is currently being assembled. The foundations and buildings of the sugarcane reception and milling processes have been completed and we expect to begin their assembly in May. Construction of the powerhouse and the foundations for the first generator, as well as the assembly of other parts of the sugar and ethanol processes are also progressing according to plan. We expect Ivinhema to undergo test runs in late 2012 and be ready to commence milling and production at the start of the 2013 harvest. Angelica ramp-up: after five years of developing the project, the mill has begun delivering operational and financial results. Angelica concluded the 2011 harvest with a strong performance, generating $88.3 million of Adjusted EBITDA and an EBITDA margin of 45.2%. Despite climatic challenges for

sugarcane production during the year, and operating at 80% of its nominal capacity, Angelica delivered results in-line with the most efficient mills in Brazil. We expect Angelica to continue improving its performance as we ramp-up utilization of nominal capacity and continue fine-tuning processes and operations. Dairy Business Expansion – Construction of Free-Stall #2 During the fourth quarter of 2011, Adecoagro began the construction of its second free-stall dairy. This new facility will have a capacity of 3,500 milking cows and produce approximately 125 thousand liters of milk per day, over 45 million liters per year. We expect the new dairy to begin operating during mid 2012 and reach full capacity in 2014. Total investment, considering equipments and cows, is estimated at $21 million. Land Transformation Since the start of the 2011/12 planting season, Adecoagro put into production and planted an incremental 13,676 hectares of land that were previously undeveloped. Of this total area, 5,091 hectares correspond to rice land and 8,586 hectares to land for row crops (soy, corn, wheat). In addition, the entirety ofned the croppable Company’s farmland is managed ow under a sustainable production model based on no-till, crop rotation, balanced fertilization and integrated pest management which enhances soil productivity (ongoing land transformation). Adecoagro’s and transformation l strategy continues as a driver for growth and value creation. La Alegria Farm Sale: On November 30, 2011, Adecoagro completed the sale of La Alegria farm at a 23.0% premium over the Cushman and Wakefield independent appraisal dated September 2011. La Alegria is a farm located in the region of General Villegas, in the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina, which was acquired by Adecoagro in 2007 for a total of $5.9 million, or $2,420 per hectare. The farm was sold for $13.7 million, equivalent to $5,623 per hectare, generating an Adjusted EBITDA of $8.8 million. The operating cash flows generated by the production of crops at La Alegria farm, added to the capital gains derived from land transformation and land appreciation, resulting in an investment with an internal rate of return of 23.2%. Recent Developments Weather Update During November 2011 through mid January 2012, Argentina and the south of Brazil suffered a severe drought with rain levels far below historical averages. Argentina’sampas, the corn-belt region, was one of the regions most affected by the dry weather. December rains are critical in this region, since early planted corn, which is typically planted in September, undergoes plant flowering, a growth phase in which the plants water requirements peak. Therefore, our early planted corn area was affected. The lack of moisture in the soil also delayed the planting of late corn, which is normally planted during early December, slightly reducing yield potential. Since soybean is planted later than corn, typically between October and November, its critical growth period falls between the end of January and end of February. Therefore, the impact of the drought on the soybean crop is less meaningful. During the first days of January, the drought conditions became more critical and the impact expanded to other regions. As of mid-January and throughout the entire month of February, most of our productive regions have received abundant rains and general production outlook has improved. We

believe that our geographic and product diversification will allow us to partially mitigate the damage caused by the drought. Foreign Land Ownership Regulation in Argentina On February 28, 2012, Decree No. 274/2012 regulating foreign ownership of rural land in Argentina was published in the Official Gazette to implement the regulation of Law No. 26,737, which was passed by the National Congress on December 23, 2011. The legislation does not affect landholdings, vested property rights or agricultural operations owned by foreigners before the law was passed. In addition, foreign individuals with a 10-year residency in the country, or married to Argentine citizens for at least 5-years, or with Argentine children and 5-year residency, are exempt from the law. According to the law and its implementing regulation, foreign ownership of rural land shall not exceed 15% of the total amount or rural land in the Argentine territory calculated in relation to the territory of the Province, Department or Municipality where the relevant lands are located. In addition, a single foreign entity or individual shall not own more than 1,000 hectares in the “zona nucleo” corn-belt), or its equivalency in other regions. The law provides that companies fall under these limitations when (i) more than 51% of their stock (or a portion sufficient to prevail in corporate decisions) is held by foreign individuals or companies; and (ii) they are indirectly linked to or controlled by foreign companies through ownership of 25% or more of their stock (or a number of votes sufficient -making process). to Adecoagro will continue farming and producing commodities at low cost over its owned farmland, and continue executing its growth plan through the transformation of its previously acquired land and the expansion of its vertically integrated rice and dairy operations. Furthermore, Adecoagro continues to explore alternatives to diversify its geographic farmland base outside of Argentina.

Note: Some planted areas may reflect immaterial adjustments compared to previous reports due to a more accurate area measurement, which occurred during current the period. Adecoagro’s2010/11 harvest year was concluded. Overall production reached 666.6 thousand tons, 7.7% higher than the 2009/10 harvest year. The lower corn and soybean yields caused by the moderate drought experienced during the start of 2011 were offset by an increase in planted area, especially in our rice crop, coupled with excellent wheat and sunflower yields. This is a result of lower than average temperatures during the spring and early summer of 2010, combined with good sun insolation and well distributed rains during the growing stages of the crop. The above illustrates how our regional and product diversification allows us to mitigate the climatic risk that certain regions and crops may suffer in any given year, which allows us to deliver more stable operating performance and cash flows.

As of December 31, 2011, 207.5 thousand hectares were successfully planted. Planting activities continued throughout early 2012, and as of the date of this report, planting for the 2011/12 harvest has been fully completed and a total of 232.3 thousand hectares have been seeded. Overall, the Company’s planted area for farming has grown 20.8% compared to the previous harvest year. During November 2011 through mid January 2012, Argentina and the south of Brazil suffered a severe drought with rain levels far below historical averages. Argentina’sHumid Pampas, the country’s-belt region, was one of the regions most affected by the dry weather. December rains are critical in this region, since the corn planted in September undergoes plant flowering, a growth phase in which the plants water requirements peak. Therefore, our early corn planted area was affected by the dry weather. The lack of moisture in the soil also delayed the planting of late corn, which is normally planted during early December, reducing yield potential. Since soybean is planted later than corn, typically between October and November, its critical growth period falls between the end of January and end of February. Therefore, the impact of the drought on the soybean crop is less meaningful. During the first days of January, the drought conditions became more critical and the impact began expanding to other regions. However, as of mid-January and throughout the entire month of February, most of our productive regions have received abundant rains and general production outlook has improved. We believe that our geographic and product diversification will allow us to partially mitigate the damage caused by the drought. Soybean: The soybean crop was in its initial growing stage during the end of December of 2011. At that time, the water requirement of the crop is low, and therefore, the drought had a minor impact on soybean first crop yields. In addition, good climatic conditions experienced during late January and February have allowed the crop to develop normally.


 

LOGO

Soybean 2nd Crop: The lack of soil humidity during late December 2011, prevented the timely planting of the crop. As a result, planting was delayed causing some irreversible yield damage. Abundant rains during January and February 2012 will partially offset the damage. Corn: As of 2011 year end, most of our corn crop had been planted. Early corn planted in September suffered most from the drought, which was especially severe in the Argentine humid pampas or corn-belt region. The lack of rains during December 2011 and the first days of January 2012 caused an irreversible negative impact on the crop, given that they occurred during plant flowering which is the critical growth stage of the crop. However, seeking to diversify crop risk and water requirements, approximately half of our corn was planted during the end of November and beginning of December. The late corn areas have received an adequate amount of rainfall and are expected to partially offset the yield damage caused by the early corn crop. Wheat: As of December 31, 2011, 42.9 thousand hectares were harvested, accounting for 99% of total planted area. Despite below average rains in some areas during September 2011, rains in early October 2011 normalized the crop’s situation2.6 tons per hectare.andYieldsledwere belowto those of the 2010/11 harvest year due to the exceptional climatic conditions the crop had last year. Sunflower: During the end of the fourth quarter of 2011, we began the harvest of the 9.6 thousand hectares of sunflower. As of December 31, 2011, 1,454 hectares were harvested with an average yield of was 1.8 tons per hectare, slightly below our expectations. This was primarily as a consequence of the high temperatures the crop experienced during its development. Rice: Our rice planting plan was complete as of December 31, 2011. Planted area totaled 31.5 thousand hectares, 14.4% above that of the 2010/11 harvest year. Supply of water in dams and rivers is sufficient to flood the rice fields throughout the growth cycle, which is key for proper plant development. Cotton: The cotton crop was entirely planted as of December 31, 2011. The crop is going through its initial growth phase and is developing well.

The drought suffered during April through October of 2010, together with the damage caused by the frosts in the second quarter of 2011, resulted in lower yields and lower sucrose content across all of Brazil, which prevented our sugarcane crushing from continuing to grow in-line with the growth of our sugarcane harvested area (27.9%) and sugarcane plantation (21.4%).

Sugar production during 2011 was 5.1% higher than in 2010, while ethanol production had a 7.4% decrease, primarily due to changes in the production mix. Exported energy (MWh) to the power grid had a remarkable increase, growing by 45.6% year over year. The sharp increase in energy exports is a result of the increased operating efficiencies of our cogeneration equipment at the Angelica mill, a higher amount of cane crushed by the Angelica Mill, and finally, the acquisition of bagasse from third party mills. Additionaly, electricity production increased considerably more than sugar and ethanol production because its production only varies according to the amount of cane crushed, whereas sugar and ethanol production also rely on the sugar content (TRS) in sugarcane, which this year was negatively affected as explained above. Cogeneration is a key part of our business because it provides stable cash flows at low marginal cost and provides high EBITDA margins. Complementing the expansion of our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy mill cluster in Mato Grosso do Sul, Adecoagro’s ugarcane plantation s as of December 31, 2011, has grown by 21.4% reaching a total of 65.3 thousand hectares.

Areas correspond to 2010/11 and 2009/10 harvest years. Adjusted EBIT of our Crops segment increased from $31.9 million in 2010 to $41.1 million in 2011, mainly due to higher commodity sales prices obtained during 2011. However, Adjusted EBIT for 4Q11 was $(3.2) million, $11.4 million below that of 4Q10. This loss and underperformance compared to 4Q10 is explained by two main factors: (i) the impact of the drought which affected the region during November 2011 through mid January 2012. As a result of the lack of rains recorded as of December 31, 2011, we revised lower the expected early corn and soybean first crop yields used to calculate the fair value of both these biological assets. As shown on the chart on page 10, as of December 31, 2011, 15,102 hectares of early corn and 8,777 hectares of soybean first crop had been planted and attained significant biological growth. These hectares generated Changes in Fair Value of Biological Assets and Agricultural Produce million, compared to $7.4 million generated in 4Q10 by 15,151 hectares of corn and 6,843 hectares of soybean pertaining to the 2010/11 harvest year. (ii) a fall in international and domestic wheat prices due to increases in global production estimates. As a result, the 43,235 hectares of wheat pertaining to the 2011/12 crop, mostly harvested during 4Q11 generated Changes in Fair Value of $0.2 million in 4Q11, while the 25,258 hectares pertaining to the 2010/11 crop, harvested during 4Q10 generated Changes in Fair Value of $8.3 million.

Sales in 2011 were 36.8% higher than in 2010, driven by higher sales volume for wheat, sunflower and cotton. Additionally, most of the commodities we produce were subject to price increases throughout the year which allowed us to realize higher prices than the previous year. The combination of these two factors allowed 2011 crop segment sales to reach $147.9 million, $39.8 million higher than 2010. Crop sales during 4Q11 reached $28.9, significantly higher than 4Q10 on account of higher sales volumes of soybean, corn and cotton and higher prices of corn and wheat.

During 2011, our crop operations related to the 2010/11 harvest year generated Changes in Fair Value of $38.9 million. Regarding the 2011/12 harvest year, by the end of 2011 the winter crops, mainly wheat, were almost completely harvested and generated Changes in Fair Value of $0.7 million, mainly as a result of low wheat prices during the end of 2011. In addition, a portion of the summer crops corresponding to the 2011/12 harvest year, mainly soybean and corn, had attained significant biological growth by December 31, 2011, and generated Changes in Fair Value of $(1.6) million. As explained above, this loss is explained by the yield damage caused by the drought which impacted our farms primarily in the Argentine humid pampas during November and December 2011.

From an operational perspective, 2011 was a strong year for our rice business. As shown on page 5, during the 2010/11 harvest year our planted area grew by 51.8%, yields grew by 23.5% and as a result farm production increased by 87.6% to a record of 172.0 thousand tons of rough rice. During 4Q11, we have completed the planting of the 2011/12 harvest year, where we have expanded planted area by 14.4%. Despite lower prices than in 2010, gross sales have grown by 35.2% year over year as a result of the growth and operational efficiencies described above. However, Adjusted EBIT for 2011 stands at $3.5 million, 29.6% below 2010. Our growth and operational efficiencies have not been reflected in 2011 earnings as a result of: (i) a significant portion of the 2010/11 harvest gains were recognized in the 2010 fiscal year. As of 4Q10, 23,934 hectares of planted rice with significant biological growth generated Changes in Fair Value of $6.3 million. (ii) as of 4Q11, 26,546 hectares had attained significant biological growth and generated changes in fair value of only $1.9 million. This reduction is explained by a 13% fall in rough rice prices at year end.

La Alegria is a farm located in the region of General Villegas, in the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina, which was acquired by Adecoagro in 2007 for a total of $5.9 million, or $2,420 per hectare. The farm was being used for cattle grazing by the former owner. Following the acquisition, Adecoagro applied a sustainable production model to transform a total of 1,948 hectares for the production of soybean, corn and wheat. After four years of enhancing the productivity of the soil by applying no-till farming, crop rotation, balanced fertilization and other best practices, the farm was sold for $13.7 million, equivalent to $5,623 per hectare, generating an Adjusted EBITDA of $8.8 million. The operating cash flows generated by the production of crops at La Alegria farm, added to the capital gains derived from land transformation and land appreciation resulted in an investment with an internal rate of return of 23.2%. Since the start of the 2011/12 planting season, Adecoagro put into production and planted a total of 13,676 hectares of land that were previously undeveloped or undermanaged. Of this total area, 5,091 hectares correspond to rice land and 8,586 hectares to land for row crops (soy, corn, wheat). Our most significant transformation project is taking place at the Dinaluca rice farm. Dinaluca is a 14,749 hectare farm acquired by Adecoagro in mid 2010. At the moment of the acquisition, the farm had roughly 3,000 hectares suitable for rice production. Since then, Adecoagro began to apply the necessary transformation techniques to put into production additional hectares, and has been able to plant over 7,000 hectares of rice in the current harvest year. We expect the transformation of this farm to continue, and plan to reach a total rice planted area of between 11,000 and 12,000 hectares. Land transformation is an ongoing process on our farms, which consists of transforming undervalued or undermanaged land into its highest production capabilities. All our farmland is managed under a sustainable production model that is focused on cutting edge technologies, such as no-till farming, crop rotations, balanced fertilization and integrated pest management, among other, which enhances soil productivity and reduces the use of fertilizers and agrochemicals year after year. Adecoagro enhances its operating cash flows by strategically disposing of a portion of its fully developed farmland and monetizes the capital gains generated by land transformation. Additionally, land sales allow Adecoagro to reallocate its capital efficiently by acquiring new land with high transformation potential.

The fourth quarter of 2011 marked the conclusion of our 2011 sugarcane harvest. Adjusted EBITDA of our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy business increased by $57.8 million, from $51.7 million in 2010 to $109.5 million in 2011, with an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 42.3%. Regardless of the difficult harvest year as a result of low sugarcane yields and low sugar content (TRS) across Brazil’s -south region, the center Angelica mill increased its crushing from 2.9 million tons in 2010, to 3.2 million tons in 2011. Angelica is expected to reach full utilization of its 4.0 million tons of nominal crushing capacity during 2012 and 2013, as we expand our sugarcane plantation. The higher utilization of its nominal capacity, coupled with better selling Adjusted EBITDA by $58.5 million or 195.7% from 2010 to 2011, delivering an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 45.2%. With respect to the UMA mill, Adjusted EBITDA remained in line with 2010. Sugarcane crushed during 2011 was lower than that of 2010, primarily due to the drought the Minas Gerais state suffered in 2010, which consequently led to lower cane yields in 2011. However, the lower amount of cane crushed was offset by higher realized prices for our sugar, ethanol and energy production.

Another factor that contributed to an increase in our sales was the flexibility of our Angelica mill to produce both hydrous and anhydrous ethanol. At our Angelica mill, during the start of the harvest we were able to maximize anhydrous production and obtained excellent prices, 51.4% above those of 2010. As anhydrous ethanol prices normalized, we switched our production mix to maximize sugar production, which for the remaining part of the year was more profitable. Also, a significant portion of our ethanol production was carried as stock into the off season, in expectation of more favorable selling prices. The combination of these two factors resulted in a drop in ethanol sales volumes of 32.9% in 2011.

Although agricultural yields were lower in 2011, total sugarcane crushed in the Angelica mill grew 7.7% compared to 2010. Sugarcane milling during 4Q11 was lower than 4Q10 primarily for two reasons: (i) milling during 2010 had been delayed due to the commissioning of the sugar plant, therefore leaving more sugarcane to be milled in the fourth quarter; and (ii) a higher industrial efficiency and less cane to be milled as a result of the frost contributed to an early close of the 2011 harvest year. On the other hand, the Usina Monte Alegre mill decreased its crushing by 0.1 million tons, primarily due to the drought the Minas Gerais state suffered in 2010, which consequently led to lower cane yields in 2011. In line with our strategy of being low-cost producers of sugar, ethanol and electricity, the supply of our own sugarcane, which we plant, grow and harvest, as a percentage of total sugarcane crushed, remains at very


LOGO

high levels relative to the industry average. During the last harvest year, only 6.6% of total crushed cane was supplied by third parties. The supply of owned sugarcane allows us to control the flow and quality of the sugarcane delivered at the mill, and leverages our agricultural expertise to maximize sugarcane yields and sugar content. In our Energy business, energy generation per ton of sugarcane milled grew from 41 Kwh/ton in 2010 to 59 Kwh/ton. This growth reflects the increased efficiency of cogeneration equipment at the Angelica mill. Cogeneration is a key part of our business, since it provides stable cash flows at low marginal cost and provides very high EBITDA margins. Our production mix favored sugar production during most of the year, except during April, in which the Angelica mill took advantage of its flexibility and maximized anhydrous ethanol production to take advantage of the excellent prices the commodity had at that time. In contrast, 2010 had a higher ethanol mix in the production, as Angelica’ssosugar during the first factory months of the harvest year all cane crushed was used to produce ethanol.

The $484 increase in valuation per hectare corresponds to (i) the planting of 13,616 hectares of sugarcane which are valued at a higher price per hectare than older sugarcane plantations, and (ii) higher sugar prices used in the DCF model we developed internally to estimate the fair value of our sugarcane plantations. This unrealized non-cash gain was supplemented by a $23.2 million gain in current cane production were atypically low due to the low TRS content in sugarcane as a result of the frost suffered during June 2011. 3.9 million tons of owned sugarcane were transferred during the year from the cane fields to the mills. The value of sugarcane transferred to the mill on a per ton basis increased 34.2% from 2010 to 2011 as a result of the increase in sugar and ethanol prices, according to the Consecana pricing formula. The main driver for the $86.0 million loss in 2010 was a decrease in the fair value of our sugarcane plantations, from an average of $3,329 per hectare at the beginning of the period to $1,949 per hectare at the end of the period. The lower valuation per hectare resulted primarily from lower sugar prices projected in the DCF valuation model.

The low cane yield is a result of the lack of rains experienced during April through October of 2010, exacerbated by the harsh frost that affectedcenter-southmostregion duringof theBrazil’send of June 2011, which was detrimental for sugarcane development. In turn, TRS content decreased as a consequence of excessive rains during 1Q11 and the frost during 2Q11. These two factors have impacted sugarcane production throughout Brazil’s center-south region, reducing total production estimates significantly. As mentioned above, 4Q11 crushed cane was considerably below that of 4Q10, primarily due to: (i) delays in milling during 2010 due to the commissioningmore sugarcane to beofmilled in the fourth quarter; and (ii) a higher industrial efficiency and less cane to be milled as a result of the frost contributed to an early close of the harvest year in 2011. Following the expansion of our sugarcane plantation and an increase in milling capacity, harvested area was up by 27.9%. Despite the large increase in harvested area, milled cane has only had a slight increase resulting from the poor cane yields explained above. The percentage of mechanized harvest has increased to 87.0%, driven by the gradual mechanization of harvest at the Usina Monte Alegre mill, increasing the efficiency of our harvesting operations.

Higher Capital Expenditures in 2010 resulted from the completion of the last phase of construction at the Angelica mill, which was finished in June 2010. 2011 Capital Expenditures were primarily related to the acquisition of 13,003 hectares of farmland in Argentina, for a total of $47.7 million, and the expansion of our Sugar, Ethanol and Energy operations, in which the company invested $104.7 million. Most of the investments made in the Sugar, Ethanol and Energy segment correspond to the construction and cane planting for the Ivinhema mill, which is scheduled to have a nominal crushing capacity of 2.0 million tons by 2013, and gradually increase its crushing until it reaches its full capacity of 6.3 million tons by 2017. During 2011 we have also made investments in order to vertically integrate our rice and dairy operations in Argentina. $7.1 million were invested in the construction of our fourth rice mill, located in the city of Frank in the province of Santa Fe, Argentina. The mill has begun operating and currently has a processing capacity of 7,200 tons of rough rice per month. Once the construction of the mill is finalized, we expect it to reach a total processing capacity of over 9,000 tons of rough rice per month. Expenditures corresponding to our dairy segment are related to the construction of our second free stall dairy module. We started the assembly of the facility in the second half of 2011 and plan to complete the construction by the end of 2012 and the purchase of cows by 2013. Lastly, land transformation expenditures are primarily related to the transformation occurring at our Dinaluca farm, where, during 2011, over 4,000 hectares formerly used for cattle grazing were transformed and put into rice production.

Appendix Market Outlook Soft Commodity Prices (30-09-2011=100) Source: Source: Thomson Thomson Reuthers Reuters Corn: —The December 2011 corn future contract on the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) had an average price of $6.23/bushel in 4Q11, representing a 10% decrease compared to the September 2011 future contract in 3Q11 and a 11% increase compared to the December 2010 future contract in 4Q10. —According to the February 9, 2012 USDA Report, Argentine production estimate was cut by 4 million tons month-over-month. Global ending stocks were revised 3 million tons lower and the stocks-to-use ratio is at its tightest level since the 1970´s. For the United States, exports were calculated at 1,700 million bushels and the stocks-to-use ratio was estimated at a 17-year-low of 6.3%. Average yield estimate for the coming harvest remained unchanged at 147.2 bushels/acre. —South American drought issues began in December 2011 and are still causing trouble to local producers in South America. However, the abundant rains during late January and the month of February might benefit the Argentine crops. The critical period for late corn in the northern provinces of Argentina is the end of February and March. According to Bolsa de Cereales, the total planted area in Argentina is estimated at 3.7 million hectares and production at 21.3 million tons. The Argentine

Ministry of Agriculture forecasts production between 20.5 and 22 million tons for the 2011/12 harvest. According to CONAB, corn harvest will reach 60.8 million tons (+6% compared to 2010/11). —Exporters sold 42 million bushels of corn in the week ending February 9, including 39.6 million old-crop bushels. The old-crop sales were at a 17-week high, up from 27.3 million bushels the previous week, but still down from the five-year average for the week of 46.2 million bushels. Marketing year sales totaled 1.154 billion bushels, down 81 million, or 7%, from the previous year. Sales to date exceeded the seasonal pace needed to reach USDA’s export target by 80 million bushels and the gap is growing. —US corn usage for ethanol is estimated at 5,000 million bushels for 2011/20 12. Given the producing pace, some analysts expect increases in that figure. Despite the tax credit expiration in the US, export demand and soaring gasoline prices may provide positive opportunities for the ethanol business. —The spread between the November soybean contract and the December corn contract at CBOT incentivizes corn acreage for the next crop. Market forecasts predict 94 to 95 million acres of corn to be planted in the 2012/13 season, a 3% increase compared to 2011/12. —For the 2012/13 season, market forecasts expect production in the US to reach approximately 350.5 million tons. Exports are expected to reach 47 million tons and stock-to-use are expected to be 10.5%, compared to 7% during the current season, according to Citibank. Soybean: —The average price for the November 2011 soybean future contract on CBOT was $11.77/bushel in 4Q11, representing a 13% decrease compared to the September 2011 future contract in 3Q11 and a 5% decrease compared to November 2011 future contract in 4Q10. —According to the February 9, 2012 USDA Report (the “USDA, global Report”) ending stocks for the 2011/12 crop decreased by 3.2 million tons month-over-month due to production reductions in Argentina (down 2.5 million tons) and Brazil (down 2 million tons). W orld stocks-to-use is calculated at 23.4%, the lowest since the 2008/09 season. In the United States, the current yield estimate is unchanged at 41.5 bushels/acre. —Exporters sold 22.5 million bushels of soybeans in the week ending February 9, including 16 million old-crop bushels. The old-crop sales were down from 22.2 million bushels the previous week and below the five-year average for the week of 20.8 million. Marketing year sales total 1.005 billion bushels, down 424.0 million, or 30%, from the previous year. Sales to date fall short of the seasonal pace needed to reach USDA’s export target by 55 million bushels and the deficit is growing. —Imports from China are estimated at 55.5 million tons, according to the USDA Report. On January 15th, China signed a $6.7 billion deal to buy U.S. beans. —According to Bolsa de Cereales, the Argentine national area harvested is e xpected to be 18.85 million hectares and production is expected to be 46.2 million tons in 2011/12. The Argentine Ministry of Agriculture forecasts a production of between 43.5 and 45.0 million tons. —For Brazil, production is expected to be at 71.5 million tons in 2011/12, according to Rabobank and 69.2 million according to CONAB (an 8% decrease compared to the 2010/11 harvest). —Planted area in the US is expected to reach 75.0 million acres in 2012/13, according to Citibank. Goldman Sachs is estimating 75.5 million acres, equal to last year planted area.

Wheat: —The December 2011 wheat future contract on CBOT had an average price of $6.18/bushel in 4Q11, a 10% decrease compared to the September 2011 future contract in 3Q11 and a 13% decrease compared to the December 2010 future contract in 4Q10. —According to the February 9, 2012 USDA Report, USDA raised its US 2011/12 export estimate by 25 million bushels, as a consequence of the strong pace of export sales. For this reason, the ending stocks estimate in the United States is 845 million bushels, down from 870 million bushels in the January 2012 Report and a stock-to-use ratio of 39.5%. Global 2011/12 wheat production increased by 1.4 million tons due to higher production in India (up 0.9 million tons month-over-month). For this reason, global endings stocks were raised by 3.1 million tons and the stock-to-use ratio stood at 31.3%, the highest since 2001/02 marketing year. —Aggressive offers from the Black Sea region has pressured the international market in the last months. However, rumors regarding possible exports ban in Russia supported CBOT wheat prices. According to the latest news, an official of the Russian farm ministry stated that the government sees no need for grain export restrictions in April. Wheat export forecast for 2011/12 is 22 million tons, according to the Russian Grain Union. —Ukraine’s winter wheat production may experience a 42% to 58% downtrend for the 2011/12 harvest to only 10-14 million tons (compared to 22 million tons last year), due to extremely cold temperatures, a phenomenon known as winterkill. —Australian winter wheat harvest in 2011/12 is estimated to be a record 29.5 million tons, compared with 27.9 million tons in 2010/11, according to ABARE, representing a 6% increase. —Argentina has recently added an additional two million tons for export to the 5 million tons originally decided by authorities. 7 million tons of the 14 million tons of total production will be exported. The remaining 2 million tons should be released based on stocks. Cotton: —The average price for the December 2011 cotton future contract traded on ICE Futures U.S. (ICE) was US¢ 95/lb in 4Q11. This represents a 12% decrease compared to the October 2011 future contract in 3Q11 and a 26% decrease compared to the December 2010 future contract in 4Q10. —According to the latest USDA Report, ending stocks in the US were calculated at 0.1 million bales higher month-over-month, due to a decrease in domestic mill use. Global cotton production was raised by 0.5 million bales due to an increase in Pakistani production. World stock-to-use ratio for 2011/12 season is calculated at 55.4%, the highest since 2004/05. —China, the world’s top cotton consumer, harvested 6.6 million tons of cotton in 2011, up 10.7 percent on the year, according to figures released by the National Bureau of Statistics. The bureau’s figure was lower than that issued earlier by the National Development and Reform Commission, which put last year’s output at 7.2 million tons. —The Chinese State Reserve program to build stocks has underpinned the international market. Purchases came from India, Pakistan and US. —Economic concerns are affecting cotton planted area for 2012/13 as the fiber has greatly underperformed relative to other commodities, affected by signs of slow economic growth and high stocks. —According to the USDA, Brazilian 2011/12 cotton production is forecasted at a record 9 million bales, up from the 2010/11 harvest of 8.7 million bales.

Rice: —The South American market for high-quality milled rice stood at a $550/ton FOB price during 4Q11, compared to an average of $560/ton in 4Q10 and $550 in 3Q11. —The Thailand government’s rice mortgage scheme had already increased before the scheme was at $570 PMT basis FOB Bangkok, with lack of interest from the buying side. —In addition, India decided to sell 2 million tons of non-Basmati rice in the export market. Despite the pressure that India has been under, we expect that the Indian government will continue to be patient and will carefully consider whether the decision to allow for the export of 2 million tons of non-Basmati rice will cause significant inflation in the domestic market before implementing further increases in exporting volume. —As of September 30, 2011, US crop production stood at 9.5 million tons (paddy basis), significantly below last year’s crop production, due to a -southern region of the United States. Long grain prices in the United States have become detached from international markets and face increased competition from South American and Asian markets. Coffee: —The December 2011 coffee future contract traded on ICE at an average price of US¢229/lb in 4Q11, a 11% decrease compared to the September 2011 future contract in 3Q11 and a 12% increase compared to the December 2010 coffee future contract in 4Q10. —The Arabica market is driven by Brazilian production. Safras & Mercados forecasts a production of between 52 and 55 million 60 kilogram bags for the 2012/13 harvest, whereas CONAB forecasts between 49 and 52 million bags. Rabobank in turn expects 58 million bags. —Brazil could become the world’ s largest coffee consumer in the coming years as interior demand continues increasing. From 2005 to 2011, domestic consumption increased 22%, to 19.8 million bags. —As for the Robusta market, the main producers, primarily Vietnam and Indonesia, are performing well, especially Vietnam, with a 21.5 million bag crop forecasted for 2011/12. Vietnamese coffee exports to other producing countries have almost doubled this season, according to Volcafe. Sugar and Ethanol: —Centre-South’s final crushing number according to year over year. Likewise, sugar production reached 31.2 million tons, down 6.8%, and ethanol production was 20.6 million cubic meters, down 18.8%. Just before news about the Northern Hemisphere`s crops hit the market, nearby sugar prices rallied back to the 27 cts/lb level. As sugar production in the European Union, Russia, Thailand and India appeared to be better than expected, prices dropped continuously, closing 4Q11 11.5% lower than in 3Q11. Worries about the European crisis contributed to increase the volatility and downward pressure on prices. —Concerns about the possible ethanol shortage pushed up prices earlier than normal, hydrous prices reached 1500 R$/m³ (with taxes, Ribeirão basis) in November and, consequently, negatively affected demand as the parity with gasoline was lost at the pumps. The bullish feeling did not last long because large volumes of imports from United States started being commercialized in November and December. This put downward pressure on prices from mid-November through the end of the year.

4Q11 hydrous prices closed 1% lower than in 3Q11, while anhydrous prices were 2% lower after peaking mid-quarter. —The Brazilian government has released many new regulations for the ethanol sector with the objective of ensuring fuel supply for the domestic market. Cash flow impacts from these new regulations will be minimal given our flexibility to produce hydrous ethanol, thereby avoiding new stocking requirements for the off-season. The impact, specifically for distributors, has not yet been fully estimated, however it is anticipated that anhydrous spot sales will be reduced significantly, thereby requiring an alternative pricing index to the broadly used weekly ESALQ index. —During 1Q12, the market will be watching replanting figures closely to estimate cane availability for new harvest, as well as the ethanol demand and the imports arrivals. In the international market, final production numbers in Europe and the development of cane harvesting in India and Thailand will play an important role in price movements. Segment Information—Reconciliation of Non-IFRS measures (Adjusted EBITDA & Adjusted EBIT) to Profit/(Loss) We define Adjusted EBITDA for each of our operating segments as the profit from operations before financing and taxation for the year or period, as applicable, before depreciation and amortization and unrealized changes in fair value of long-term biological assets. We define Adjusted EBIT for each of our operating from operations before financing and taxation for the year or period, as applicable, before unrealized changes in fair value of long-term biological assets. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT are for Adeocoagro and each operating segment, respectively important measures of operating performance because they allow investors and others to evaluate and compare our consolidated operating results and to evaluate and compare the operating performance of our segments, respectively, including our return on capital and operating efficiencies, from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest expense from our outstanding debt), asset base (depreciation and amortization), tax consequences (income taxes), unrealized changes in fair value of long term biological assets (a significant non-cash gain or loss to our consolidated statements of income following IAS 41 accounting), foreign exchange gains or losses and other financial expenses. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT differently, and therefore Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBIT are not a measures of financial performance under IFRS, and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to consolidated net profit (loss), cash flows from operating activities, profit from operations before financing and taxation and other measures determined in accordance with IFRS.
