The Twynam Agricultural Group was founded in the early 1970s by John Dieter Kahlbetzer as a result of his strong connection with rural Australia. This connection with agriculture, which is shared by his two sons Johnny and Markus, also led to the foundation of the LIAG Group in Argentina in 1982.

Today, the Twynam and LIAG agricultural property portfolios have a wide geographical base expanding over 430,000 hectares with a sector spread providing security against adverse weather conditions and commodity market fluctuations.
