"the seeds are traveling on one of American’s cargo-only routes from Buenos Aires (EZE) to Miami (MIA)."

Fla doesn't grow much soybeans - so the transfer was really about breaking a cargo record for a 737. In the meantime American truckers transported three truck loads each or 150,000 lbs of soybeans, 188,000 lbs of cotton seed and 300,000 lbs of corn to American farmers for planting.
