Cefetra Ibérica is a subsidiary company of the German group BayWa, a company in the area of agricultural cooperative trading, today a leader in the origination and distribution of agri-food raw materials, services for farmers, and the promotion and development of renewable energy.

At Cefetra Ibérica we know that the Spanish market cannot be understood without having a foot on the ground and working with farmers on site. That’s why, since the very beginning, we decided to support local commerce and direct customer service with partners and collaborators of the highest level of confidence and with a focus on key productive areas in Spain.
We’ve been working with our partners from Baltanás, Cereales y Abonos in the province of Palencia since 2016 to provide a service to our customers. We also work with local producers of wheat, barley, sunflower and other products from the Cerrato area. Thanks to our facilities in Baltanás and Torquemada, we serve more than 500 farmers annually, collecting their agricultural production and offering advice and distribution services of fertilisers and seeds. Through Baltanás, Cereals y Abonos we also offer agronomic advice and facilitate the distribution of crop protectors and nutrients, where our colleagues from Agrosenara offer services to a further 500 farmers of various crops in various locations.
Our service centre for farmers in Ciudad Real is in Torralva de Calatrava. Together with Hijos de Manuel Hidalgo and Fitohidalgo, we offer a wide range of services to farmers of all types of crops in La Mancha. Our work there covers the entire cycle of sowing, including the distribution of seeds, offering our clients agronomic, nutritional and phytosanitary advice services, and even covers the harvesting period.
