Four steps. The analysis comes first.
-
01
Send your pesticide list and purity floor
Whatever the material has to clear — EU MRLs, a private list stricter than the EU, a purity floor. Text, spreadsheet or PDF; we take it as it is.
-
02
We run it as analytes and return a pass/fail on every line
Your list is held as structured analytes and matched against the lot result — line by line, against current EU MRLs, US tolerances or your private list, updated as they change.
-
03
We draw your sample from the allocated lot
Once destination and volume are confirmed we allocate a lot and draw the sample from it under our sampling protocol — so what you assess and what you receive are the same material. Sample free of charge, courier at your account.
-
04
We come back with an offer
You see the analysis before anything is committed and before a container is booked.
Released with first contact.

- A sample analytical file
Ortura is an origin merchant, not a certifier. Conventional today. Organic (OIA) certification in process, expected from 1 January 2027.
The first container is the risky one. Here is where the risk sits.
You don’t prepay
Cash against documents. You pay against the shipping documents, not against a promise. LC negotiable if your bank prefers it.
You see the analysis first
The lot’s result against your list, line by line, before the container is booked. A flagged line is a lot we don’t offer you — not a claim you file later.
You test the same material
Once your lot is allocated, the sample is drawn from that lot under our sampling protocol — so what your QA assesses and what ships are the same material, not a lookalike. A sealed counter-sample is retained for 24 months against any dispute.
One counterparty
We buy and take title. Plant to vessel, the lot and the paperwork are ours to answer for — not a broker forwarding a problem.
What buyers ask before the first container.
- You’re a new brand. Why would we take the risk on a first container?
- The brand is new; the desk is not. Our founding partners run YAD Logística — over twenty years in Argentine import, export and customs, with its own fleet, its own warehousing in Buenos Aires and Zona Franca La Plata, and customs representation at Buenos Aires, Ezeiza, Campana and La Plata. And the first step carries no risk to price: you send the pesticide list and purity floor, we run it as analytes and return a pass/fail on every line. Nothing is committed until you have seen that.
- Do you hold organic certification?
- Not in our own name yet — OIA certification is in process, expected from 1 January 2027. Today the material is conventional and we sell it as conventional. What you contract against is this desk: we take title, we commission the analysis, and we answer for the lot.
- Is the sesame available now?
- No. Sesame trades forward here: we contract against the 2027 crop, shipment from Q2 2027. Chia is the position we hold — 52 MT, shipping November 2026, FOB Buenos Aires. We do not list a position we are not holding.
- Which residues do you actually run?
- A standard multiresidue panel plus the polars — glyphosate, AMPA, paraquat, diquat and phosphonic acid — at Primoris in Belgium, LC-MS/MS on the QuPPe polar method, ISO/IEC 17025. Heavy metals, microbiology, purity and moisture alongside it at ISO/IEC 17025-accredited European laboratories. Three to five days. We report the figure on each analyte, not a pass.
- Whose limits do you match the result against?
- Yours. Current EU MRLs, US tolerances, or your buyer’s private list, held as structured data and updated as those limits change. Send the list and it is matched line by line against the lot.
- Our internal list is stricter than the EU. Is that a problem?
- That is the normal case, and it is the reason the matcher exists. A private list stricter than the EU is held as analytes like any other standard. The demonstration on the quality page shows exactly that: a residue the EU limit lets through, flagged by a private list.
- What if a lot cannot meet our list?
- Then you know before a container is booked. A flagged line means a lot we do not offer you — not a claim you file after discharge. That is the whole reason the analysis runs before the offer rather than after it.
- What is the minimum?
- One container — 26 MT, FOB Buenos Aires, cash against documents.
- Your certificate says organic. Your site says conventional. Which is it?
- Conventional. Sample type on a Primoris report is a client-provided field — what the party booking the sample typed on the submission form. It is printed as received and the laboratory does not audit it, which is why it sits under the heading "Client provided information". It is not a finding. Ortura holds no organic certification today and does not sell the material as organic. Conventional today. Organic (OIA) certification in process, expected from 1 January 2027. What that certificate evidences is the analysis: the methods, the reporting limits, and the result on every analyte.
- How much can you actually ship?
- The written position is 52 MT of 2026 crop chía, contracted and analysed, moving on a 5–20 November 2026 laycan. 500 MT of the 2026 crop is allocated to Ortura. 52 MT of it is contracted and analysed today, and the rest allocates against confirmed specs. Volume beyond the contracted lot is allocated by the container against a confirmed spec, which is the only basis we will commit tonnage on.
- What does the first exchange actually cost us?
- The spec run is free and there is no obligation — send the list, we run it against a real lot and return the per-line result. If it clears and you tell us destination and volume, we allocate a lot and draw the sample from that lot under our sampling protocol: sample free of charge, courier at your account. Price comes up once you tell us the level you are targeting.
- Why is there no price on the site?
- A price without a spec is a price for a different lot. The purity floor, moisture, calibre, crop year, the residue list it has to clear, the volume and the destination all move the number — and two lots that read alike on a spec sheet can price differently once the polar panel comes back. Send the list and the volume; the indication comes back against a real lot, not against an average.
- Who are we contracting with, exactly?
- YAD Logística SRL, tax ID 30-71457965-3, registered at Piedras 519, Monserrat (1070), Capital Federal, Argentina. Company details, registration and bank reference are released with first contact.
- Who is the exporter of record?
- YAD Logística SRL · CUIT 30-71457965-3. The cargo clears under a licensed exporter; the analytical file travels with it.
