Advantages of Farming in Presidente Hayes

Presidente Hayes is the heart of Paraguay’s beef country. It holds about 2.7 million head, more than any other department, and is the country’s largest supplier of weaners.

Paraguay’s Chaco has a dry climate that limits disease transmission. Its nutrient-rich soils support strong pasture growth and higher calving rates. Improved grass and legume pastures can raise herd productivity per hectare many times over.

Land is far cheaper than in neighbouring countries, and Chaco ranch land is often priced at US$300–800 per hectare. Taxes are also low: 10% VAT, 10% corporate income tax and 10% personal income tax. Foreigners can buy land in their own name, except in border zones.l

Buyers should still check title, boundaries, water, and access before purchase. Contact us to inspect this cattle property in Paraguay.
