Argentine: The first two months of 2025 saw declines in exports compared to 2024

Despite the measures taken by Javier Milei's government to make foreign trade more flexible, according to data published by the Institute of Statistics and Census (INDEC), 96,805 tons of beef were shipped abroad during the first two months of 2025. This result represented a 26.1% drop compared to the same period in 2024.

Argentine: The first two months of 2025 saw declines in exports compared to 2024

These figures contrast with the sector's performance in other countries around the world, as international demand remains strong and prices are rising. Argentine's competitors in the market have increased their exports by between 3% and 22%.

The good news is that meat prices are rising significantly. Thus, the drop in shipped volumes is offset by payments received from meat exports, which reached US$474.5 million in the first two months of the year. This figure helped to ensure that the year-over-year decline in foreign currency earnings was only 3.8%.

This result was even more evident in the monthly increase in February 2025, a period in which, according to information provided by INDEC (National Institute of Statistics and Census), foreign sales reached 50.1 thousand tons (product weight). This volume, while an improvement compared to January (46.7 thousand tons shipped), was 27.5% less than the same month in 2024.
