Hi,
I would like to invite all of you to learn about our Annual Sustainabi-
lity Report, which contains all our achievements and shows how we
overcame challenges throughout 2015. The document was produced
relying on the involvement of all company areas in order to advance in
sustainability management through an integrated process.
The aspects covered in this report in short, were identified through a
process that includes consultations with our main stakeholders. To
know more about it, access the full report on: www.amaggi.com.br/
relatorio2015.
Our Global Stance on Sustainability is based on the Corporate Prin-
ciples for Food and Agriculture, of UN’s Global Compact, and on the
engagement of stakeholders, which to us, represents a critical and
continuous process.
With clearly defined goals and objectives, we work to achieve an incre-
asingly more global cooperation, with transparency and sustainability.
To this end, the participation of all our employees, suppliers, institutio-
nal partners, and communities where we operate, is instrumental.
Enjoy your reading!

SustainableValue Chain
Sustainability PlanVision 2025
With the strengthening of AMAGGI’s international
performance came the need to reinforce the com-
pany’s commitment to sustainability, contemplating
global challenges.
The defining of priority issues emerged from studies
and surveys, the main ones being:
• Food and Agriculture Business Principles
of the UN Global Compact;
• Materiality Matrix developed in 2014, with
consultations with various stakeholders;
GLOBAL STANCE ON SUSTAINABILITY
2025 VISION To integrate all business areas strategies for the next ten years AMAGGI
incorporated the Global Stance on Sustainability, or 2025 Vision. The the-
mes of the Global Stance and 2025 Vision were divided into blocks called
strategic groups.
• Survey of priority issues with direct
and indirect customers, who make up
the value chain;
• Work carried out with senior mana-
gement of the company to identify
strategic sustainability points for the
coming years;
• And other literature on sustainabili-
ty issues that are under discussion or
are treated as key issues for agribusi-
ness.
Certifications are tools used by AMAGGI to certify their com-
mitment to responsible production, ensuring compliance
with environmental and quality criteria in all internal proces-
ses and in the production chain.
CERTIFICATIONS
In 2015, AMAGGI sold around 883,000 tons of RTRS certified soy.
Trading RTRS credits rose 37% and soybean sales grew 290%. This
year, AMAGGI accounted for 87% of all certified physical RTRS soy
trading in the world.

The principle of materiality refers to the definition of the most important issues for the company’s
management, considering its strategy and the perception of the public that relates to the impacts
that their activities provide.
The last materiality process carried out by AMAGGI in 2014 included interviews with industry
experts and 11 company directors, and multi-stakeholder panels in the cities of Cuiabá, Campo
Novo do Parecis, and Lucas do Rio Verde, in Mato Grosso, as well as online questionnaires
for employees, strategic partners, and suppliers. In all, over 500 stakeholders were
heard, and the issues identified by them as priorities were validated by
the AMAGGI Executive Board, as shown in the following table.

AMAGGI’s governance model follows the good practices established by the Brazilian Corporate Gover-
nance Institute (IBCG). The Board of Directors consists of seven members, being four family represen-
tatives and three independent counselors. The Executive Board consists of the CEO and 11 directors,
with different roles and responsibilities.
Sustainability at AMAGGI is considered by the board and management as one of the strategic pillars
of business. The alignment of senior management with the organization’s strategic objectives and
consistency with organizational values are worked out and developed through the Aroeira project.
In 2015:
• Council and Board Reflection on the guidelines for 2025;
• Building Global Stance on Sustainability and 2025 Vision;
Risk management at AMAGGI is based on the Enterprise Risk Management Policy, launched in 2015,
and acts to mitigate the following risks: financial, strategic, operational and regulatory. The main steps
of the risk management processes are:
• Assessment and measurement of risk factors;
• Preliminary analysis of risk factors and assessment of mitigation alternatives;
• Implementation of mitigation alternatives;
• Communication of executed strategies;
• Control and monitoring.
Compliance with legislation is a strategic priority for AMAGGI. Update
on the changes in the legislation is continuously carried out through
research and the gathering of information from specialized com-
panies.
AMAGGI also evaluates environmental, labor and occupa-
tional health and safety regulations in the supply chain
and in their procurement of materials, services and
marketing of raw materials and commodities, pro-
vides requirements clauses to respect the law,
including environmental and labor, as well as
respect for human rights clauses.

People’s development is one of the biggest challenges when it comes to the
company’s growth strategy, and is therefore a priority.
The planning of actions is defined based on each area’s strategy and business
plan as well as employees’ development needs, which are identified through
evaluations and analysis of demonstrated skills.
In 2015, from the business areas’ decoding of strategies, Human Resources de-
signed a strategic plan for the coming 10 years.
TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT17 HOURS AVERAGE

School of Talents - self-awareness moduleStructured to form professionals
who work in the technical axis, the
self-awareness module was im-
plemented, with the participation
of 666 employees.
Employer BrandingThe company appeared for 11 months in the top ten classification on
Vagas.com website, ranking 2nd place in the 2015’s annual ranking.
As part of the project the University Circuit was also carried out,
with talks on the company and its practices, involving circa five
thousand students. The idea is to attract people who have
their values aligned with the company’s to be part of the
Young Talents program.
Strengthening our rootsMeetings were organized betwe-
en executives and employees of
all units where managers talked
about their careers and which are
the ways for employees to identify
themselves with AMAGGI’s culture.

AMAGGI considers communication with stakeholders a key process for business
continuity. Dialogue with these groups is accomplished through partnerships be-
tween corporate communications and other areas of the company.
Since 2014 AMAGGI has invested in and has been modernizing its intranet, thus
representing a breakthrough in communication with employees. Also new chan-
nels were opened, such as Speak to the President, which allows any employee to
make suggestions or ask questions to top management of the company directly.
In order to build a Global Stance on Sustainability which included AMAGGI stake-
holders’ expectations and supported business areas’ expansion, the company
structured, in 2013, the Stakeholder Engagement Plan.
In 2015, this plan was reviewed. With a new mapping of stakeholders, the degree
of impact and influence of each public was evaluated and redefined the priority
stakeholders’ chart.
Together with this prioritized public in 2015 several training actions were implemen-
ted, such as awareness and dialogues. Of the 54 training actions scheduled for
2015/2016, 32 have already been held, 5 are in progress and 17 will begin in 2016.
In 2015 AMAGGI created the Corporate Security area, responsible,
among other things, for the implementation of an ombudsman
channel for both internal and external audiences. The Hotline is
open for complaints, inquiries and allegations of fraud, theft and
adverse behavior to the Code of Ethics and Conduct.
During 2015, the Corporate Security department worked on the im-
plementation of a system for standardizing and optimizing all oc-
currences. In 2016, the department plans to advance on analyzing
2015’s data, generating indicators for management improvement
and ensuring proper accountability to society.

Partnerships and commitments undertaken by AMAGGI are selected from the alignment of initiati-
ves with the company’s values and strategies. The aim is to disseminate principles in the value chain
and manage on the scale required the sector’s positive and negative impacts.
When it comes to voluntary agreements, before deciding upon a new adherence, the company veri-
fies that it already serves at least 70% of the set commitments and targets, even if partially.
It is worth mentioning that in 2015, the company strengthened its presence in debates on public
participation, with productive sectors, associations which represent the agribusiness, NGOs and the
public sector.

AMAGGI’s business strategy for the coming years is growth. The challenge for the future is for the
company to increasingly position itself as a global entity, leading major grain producing markets
such as South America, and selling to markets such as Europe and Asia.
In 2015, AMAGGI began the integration of an office in Hong Kong, China. This office already existed
and belonged to two large cooperatives, one Argentine, and the other Japanese. The company be-
gan operating directly in China with this partnership.
The following indicators show the evolution of AMAGGI’s expansion plans
The innovation theme has always been a priority
for AMAGGI, and it is included in their business
strategies.
Agribusiness is related to great challenges that
demand innovation and involve different eco-
nomic and social interests surpassing national
boundaries on issues such as climate change
and food supply security.
In 2015, AMAGGI Agro initiated a study still con-
sidered to be Proof of Concept (PoC), called
Telemeclima, which aims to cross reference te-
lemetry data provided by machinery with wea-
ther conditions measurements. With real-time
information, it will be possible, in the future, to
improve quality of applications, planting opera-
tions, and reduce use of products and rework
mitigation.
In the Tucunaré and Itamaraty farms new varie-
ties of soybeans and cotton, agrochemical and
biological products and vegetation coverage
that allow for soil pests control are also being
tested. The first results should be published at
the end of the 15-16 harvest.
Cuiabá Terminal Project (crane bar-
ge) - In 2015 the crane barge operation to
the port of Itacoatiara started. The design
allows for the expansion of the terminal’s
capacity, without the need for extra area of
land, thus avoiding deforestation areas in
the Amazon region.
Pusher Tugs - Tapajós corridor - these are diesel electric propulsion ope-
rated and use generators that provide the
best operating conditions and reduce car-
bon emissions by 20 to 40%. It is the first
to be built and operated in Brazil for inland
navigation.
Automatic aluminum caps for closing the barges New caps provi-
de better security for staff and bring ideal
sanitary conditions for grains. AMAGGI is
the only company in Brazil to adopt this
technology.

All development work with communities is based on the Private Social Investment Policy, the Envi-
ronmental Policy and the Global Stance on Sustainability.
In 2015, AMAGGI operated in 50 municipalities in 13 states, besides the international units. The signi-
ficant impacts are in the states of Mato Grosso, Amazonas, Para and Rondônia.
To manage social impacts on communities, ANDRÉ AND LUCIA MAGGI FOUNDATION plans AMA-
GGI’s social investment in a strategic way, with a more targeted focus on implementation of projects
in the communities, involving different actors and fostering partnerships.
Projects undertaken by the André and Lucia Maggi Foundation in 2015:
Casa Maggica: expanded its service capacity by 34%, reaching 240 students.
Centro Cultural Velha Serpa: public service capacity increased to 6291 people, excee-
ding by 36%.
Potencializa: Kick start of the ‘Potencialize’ project in Campo Novo do Parecis (MT), with
25 institutional stakeholders and about 500 participants taking part in the activities.
Transformar: First Edition of the project in 2015, conducted virtual mode training (online),
covering 12 municipalities of Mato Grosso and 34 social organizations, besides having one
social control association invited.
Jovens Bailarinos: Preparing two students at the Bolshoi Theater School in Brazil.
In order to mitigate impacts related to truck traffi-
cking in the communities where it operates, AMA-
GGI develops several projects focused on this
audience. The main one is the Responsible Truck
Driver Program.
There were more than 2,500 driv-ers who attended the health and well-
-being addressed to truck drivers program
that toured four cities in Mato Grosso (Cuia-
bá, Nova Mutum, Rondonópolis and Sorri-
so). An awareness campaign for the “Fight
against Sexual Exploitation of Children and
Adolescents” was also conducted. Another
action undertaken by AMAGGI’s Responsi-
ble Truck Driver Program was the training of 288 AMAGGI employees who di-
rectly serve truck drivers, on issues related to
cordiality and respect, ethics and conduct.

Actions to support producers are based on the Environmental Policy and the company’s
Global Sustainability Positioning.
The goal is to guide rural producers to gradually improve their legal compliance and social
and environmental performances, promoting responsible agricultural production and quality
of life to the communities where they operate.
There are several initiatives and partnerships that the company participates in order to support
sustainable agriculture and curb illegal deforestation, with the vision of a sustainable supply
chain.
For example, we can mention the Food and Agriculture Business Principles, an initiative of
the UN Global Compact, which AMAGGI participates and coordinates in Brazil.
Partnerships with Soja Plus Program and NGOs such as TNC, IPAM, Earth Innovation
and Earth Alliance also promote the farmers’ development, in subjects such as forest
restoration, development of local communities, RTRS certification producer
group and joining the federal government’s Rural Environmental
Registry (CAR).
SUPPORT TO RURAL PRODUCERS
ENCOURAGING SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE AND COMBATING ILLEGAL LOGGING.
Events and lectures conducted in order to dis-
close AMAGGI’s portfolio and expose techni-
cal information that contributes to increased
productivity of crops and the adoption of better
agricultural practices that have the least pos-
sible environmental impact. In the 2015-2016
harvest there will be about 25 events in Mato
Grosso and Rondonia.

Supply chain mapping:
For farmers, the company has minimal principles for marketing grains:• Veto the producers appearing in the Ministry of Labor and Employment slave labor related
black list
• Veto to areas seized by IBAMA due to deforestation
• Veto to areas designated as Indigenous Lands
• Veto to areas designated as Conservation Units
• Veto to areas deforested within the Amazon biome after 2008 (Soy Moratorium)
In 2015 the company advanced in the governance of information improving the monitoring of
areas not authorized for grain supply.
SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL CRITERIA TO ASSESS SUPPLIERS
In 2015, all 514 suppliers who
were considered critical were
assessed in environmental,
human rights and labor
practices, and their impact
on communities.
• Anti-corruption clause inclusion in all contracts with suppliers.
• Proportion of spending on local suppliers in important operating
units in 2015 = 72%
Origination - farmers:About 4000 soybean and corn suppliers,
divided into subgroups:
• Large groups (over 50,000 ha)
• Small and medium producers
• Producers certified by RTRS and
PROTERRA

Water management is based on the company’s Environmental Policy. Consumption reduc-
tion targets are established in accordance with improvement opportunities identified and
implemented through the Environmental Management Program.
Through the Environmental Management System (EMS), AMAGGI identifies projects with an
environmental focus in their units, which can contribute to continuous improvement, cost re-
duction and efficient use of natural resources. Among the projects in progress the following
are worth mentioning:

Deforestation and the preservation of native forests are widely debated topics in the agribu-
siness sector and a priority for AMAGGI.
The company has an extensive conservation area, classified as legal reserve and perma-
nent conservation area (APPDs). With a total of 97.017ha, 19.284ha are located within state
parks and are intended for compensation or exemption from legal reserve quotas and other
77.733ha are preserved on AMAGGI’s farms.
Where the vegetation of permanent preservation areas is not in line with the parameters re-
quired by Brazilian law, AMAGGI maintains the Degraded Areas Recovery Plans (Prad).
Management of greenhouse gas emissionsIn 2015, the company published its fifth
inventory, the second produced according
to the Agricultural GHG Protocol. Conside-
ring possible GHG emissions impacts on
AMAGGI’s businesses and society, the
company established a Greenhouse Gas
Emissions Management Program.
From historical analysis, emission reduc-
tion targets were set for 2020, which are
being validated by the Board in 2016.
IMPACT OF ACTIVITIES ON DEFORESTATION AND MAINTENANCE OF NATIVE FORESTS IN PRESERVATION AREAS
PROJECTS AND INITIATIVES
Monitoring impacts on biodiversity
Currently, 100% of the company’s APPDs are
in the recovering process.
In 2015, AMAGGI continued with the Degra-
ded Areas Recovery Plans of (Prad) of the hy-
droelectric plants Segredo, Santa Lúcia, Ilha
Comprida, Divisa and in the clay and gravel
quarries, totaling 58 hectares.
