Cordoba.- Entities representing agricultural producers insist on the need for this Eliminate deductions Or at least in his country Continued gradual decline. The investigation analyzed what would need to happen to eliminate them soybean king Zero tax cost. Based on the 2023-2024 campaign, Soybean production should grow by 28%. The harvest is expected to reach 61.7 million tons, which is 300,000 tons higher than the record for the 2014-2015 cycle.
The data comes from work before Adrian Gutierrez Capello, From the Center for Regional Economics at the Faculty of Economics and Business of the National University of Sin Maarten (UNSAM). Within a decade, the area planted with soybeans decreased by 16.3% (3.22 million hectares), while during that period it decreased The area devoted to maize grew by 5.07 million hectares.
The report indicates this brazil, One of the largest soybean producers besides the United States, between the 2020-2021 and 2024-2025 campaigns it achieved a 22% increase in production without affecting the rest of the other crops.
During the same period in Argentina, according to the latest campaign estimates, the tons harvested increased by 8%, with the 2020-2021 campaign considered one of the lowest campaigns (not counting those affected by drought).
around An additional 13.5 million tons to reach the mentioned size will represent a boost to the economy approaching 0.82% of GDP.adding Generating added value in the industry that may reach 1%. Moreover, The export value of by-products will reach approximately 6.3 billion US dollars.
If this were the case, Gutierrez Cabello suggests, the industry would reach a technical capacity utilization of 77.4% (according to Rosario Stock Exchange estimates, 70.4 million tons). In addition, the import of soybeans, especially from Paraguay, will likely be eliminated.
In this context, the report adds that there will be Additional truck flow of 482,000 Units to port areas where almost the entire oil and by-product industry is located.
For activities For sowing and harvesting, diesel demand plus transportation will require a total of 511 million litres. The specialist says: “Agricultural activity is not only stimulated, but it is also transferred directly and indirectly to the rest of the sectors that produce goods and services.”
Gutierrez Cabello emphasizes that there is a “very low share” of agricultural raw materials in the final price of food, in particular soybeans and their derivatives, because internal consumption of soybeans, excluding grinding, is significantly low, as are flour and pellets used in animal feed and oil for conversion into biodiesel.
He asserts that “the price of soybeans and the duration over time show that export duties respond to a financial need more than mitigating the impact of the price of this raw material on the prices of basic foods.”
