Cooperativa Agropecuaria "Carlos Casado" de Casilda Ltda. is a cooperative of farm producers in Casilda, in the south of Santa Fe province, Argentina, one of the country's most productive farming regions. It is one of the organisations that trust Fibady.

## What is Cooperativa Carlos Casado?

The cooperative works with producers in and around Casilda. On its website it publishes prices for soybean, corn, wheat and sorghum, and its members can check their current account there.

Like every cooperative, it belongs to its members: it is governed by a board that is renewed at the annual general meeting. Its headquarters are on Hipólito Yrigoyen street in Casilda, and it has been operating for more than five decades.

Casilda began in 1870 as a farming colony founded by the businessman Carlos Casado del Alisal, after whom the cooperative is named. The first Argentine wheat shipment to Europe left from that colony.

## What does a farming cooperative ask of its numbers?

A farming cooperative is not a single business. Activities with different logics usually sit under the same roof, each with its own income, costs and season. That raises questions of its own:

- **How much does each section contribute?** The overall result hides which activities support the others.
- **In pesos or in dollars?** Grain and inputs are traded in dollars; the books are kept in pesos.
- **What is reported to the board and the general meeting?** The members decide, and they need clear reports, not a list of accounts.
- **How does one season compare with another?** The farming year does not match the calendar month.

## How does Fibady fit a cooperative?

- **Result by section.** The ERP's [cost centres](/glossary/cost-center) are grouped into sections, and each one has its own P&L within [financial reporting](/product/financial-reporting).
- **Pesos and dollars.** The same reports in either currency ([dual currency](/glossary/dual-currency)), at each period's exchange rate.
- **Reports for the board.** Dashboards and a monthly report drafted from the real figures, ready to review.
- **Budget by section.** Each owner follows their [budget](/product/budgeting) and variances.
- **Access per person.** The manager, the accountant and each section owner sign in with their own permissions.

It is how management [sees how each activity is doing without asking for the report](/solutions/ceo).
