An accident at a Bunge facility in Argentina’s Up River hub has led to suspension of activity and fears of injuries at one of the group’s main processing sites in the country, according to multiple trade sources, reports Agricensus.
The facility, thought to be the Puerto General San Martin (PGSM) industrial complex, was reported to have suffered the collapse of a silo August 2, leading to reports of injuries among workers.
Maritime sources say the accident has not affected berths or loading operations at the facility, but the terminal has been shut down.
The facility is identified on the Bunge Argentina corporate website as a crushing plant, port terminal and storage plant handling grains, meals and oils.
