Who it serves
Wood buyers and industrial chains using forestry resources.
How the business works
Forestry involves planting, tending and harvesting trees over several years. Biological growth and timber sales operate on different timelines from a factory or power plant.
What drives this activity
Forest growth, plantation age, timber prices, weather and harvesting and transport costs.
The business in practice
Selected products, companies and assets from corporate publications.
- Forestal Argentina: plantations to logs
Forestal Argentina, listed among Central Puerto’s subsidiaries, grows pine and eucalyptus in Corrientes and Entre Ríos. It mainly sells logs to local industries. Supplying wood processors gives this activity its own geography and production cycle within the energy group.

Its place in Central Puerto
Central Puerto combines electricity generation with forestry assets and portfolio investments. Understanding the group requires separating power sales, forest growth cycles and investment or disposal decisions. A financial stake does not make the company the project operator.
Economics of the whole company
Business economics · explained by La Plata
Customers, operations & revenue
Central Puerto’s plants deliver electricity and available capacity; contracts and remuneration rules determine receipts. Forestry creates an asset that grows for years before harvesting. Mining investments have different economics: results depend on the interests held and their development, rather than group-operated mineral sales.
What shapes business performance
Generation depends on availability, dispatch, maintenance and collection timing. Water, wind and sunlight affect renewable output. Forestry requires separating biological valuation changes from actual timber sales. Purchases or disposals of investments can affect a financial year without representing repeatable operating revenue.
