Food systems are "the largest employer and the most abusive sector on the planet." Gross exploitation of hundreds of millions of people for the sake of cheap food and private profits, made worse by concentrated corporate control of supply chains.

Vale la pena preguntarse si los fuertes vínculos de Milei con la industria cripto y la administración Trump influyeron en su impulso por abrir las tierras agrícolas argentinas a más propiedad extranjera. www.desmog.com/2026/08/20/t...

Tether mantiene estrechos lazos con la administración Trump a través del secretario de Comercio de Estados Unidos, Howard Lutnick, así como conexiones con el Partido Reformista de extrema derecha en el Reino Unido.

Con el control de Adecoagro en manos de Tether, queda por ver si está infringiendo las restricciones a la propiedad de tierras agrícolas extranjeras, que Milei intentó eliminar. www.farmlandgrab.org/post/32805-t...

@grain.orgSep 25, 2026, 2:01 PM

En septiembre de 2025, Tether tomó el control mayoritario de la empresa argentina de agronegocios Adecoagro. A través de Adecoagro ahora posee 217.810 ha de tierras agrícolas en Argentina, así como plantas de fertilizantes y fábricas de procesamiento de alimentos.

Una de las grandes ganadoras de esta reforma habría sido la controvertida empresa de criptomonedas Tether. Es la mayor emisora mundial de stablecoins: una criptomoneda respaldada por activos como oro y bonos del tesoro estadounidense.
