Argentine agri exports looking good<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Twenty percent of GDP in Argentina is agriculture-related, making it an important country for agriculture production due its high yields.<\/p>\n

Argentina is the world’s largest exporter of sunflower oil, a leading exporter of soybean oil and among the top five exporters of soybeans and corn. More than a third of Argentina’s exports are in agri products, which earned them $25 billion in 2010\/2011.<\/p>\n

Export oportunities is a key driver for agricultural production for 1014\/2015, particulary for grains, rice and sugar. However a key risk is the county’s rising food inflation, which could force the government to try and stem exports as has been done to beef exports in the past.<\/p>\n

The government is taking positive steps to change grain seed laws to increase the biofuel blending limit, which could increase production in the medium term.<\/p>\n

It could help foster a good relationship with the farmers and capitalize on its strong production potential.<\/p>\n

Beef consumption is expected to decline as consumers switch to poultry. It has unintended consequences.<\/p>\n

Farmers will build stocks on the back of high prices and Argentina could return to being one of the world’s largest beef exporters over the medium term.<\/p>\n

The long-term soybean forecasts should be revised as the government passes new seed laws to encourage farmers to use genetically modified GM seeds.<\/p>\n

Only 35% use it now and that could change to 80% shortly. It would cut production costs while allowing farmers to earn more revenue from their output.<\/p>\n

It could mean that Argentina could surpass Brazil and become the world’s second largest soybean exporter. At the moment they are in third place.<\/p>\n

A continued rebound in corn is expected as Buenos Aires Grains Exchange already saw a 4% area increase in corn planted for the 2011 season. Argentina is the world’s second largest corn exporter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
