San Eugenio was one of the first major estancias founded in Casupá / Arroyo de Milan Region, Department of Florida, Uruguay in the 1880s by Don Eugenio Barragan, at that time exceeding 5000 hectare. It changed hands not too many times since then, belonging to the Caravia family after the 1920s, the Sacco in the 1950-80s, later on the Bartesaghis until 2004.
San Eugenio has allwas mainly been a cattle ranch, with some grain farming being done in the 1960-90s.
It now consists of a small fraction of its original size
