Buenos Aires, Argentina. Argentine agroindustrial exports showed a remarkable growth in the first seven months of 2025, with an increase of 6% in volume compared to the same period of the previous year, reaching 65.5 million tons. The total value exported was 28.22 billion dollars, according to data processed by the Undersecretariat of Agrifood Markets and International Insertion, based on INDEC statistics.
This performance consolidates the sector as one of the pillars of the national economy and reflects a positive trend in the international insertion of agroindustrial products. The Secretariat of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries emphasized that this growth is not only measured in volume, but also in the diversification and added value of exports.
The large agroexport complexes
The ten main agroindustrial complexes accounted for 87% of total exports: soybeans, corn, cattle, wheat, sunflower, aquaculture and fishing, barley, dairy products, peanuts and grapes. Within this group, some showed particularly outstanding performances.
The peanut complex led the increases with an astonishing 47% growth in exported volume. It was followed by wheat with 31%, sunflower with 25%, fishing with 7% and corn with 3%.
This behavior is evidence not only of the country's productive capacity, but also of a commercial strategy aimed at strengthening items with high development potential and international demand.
New products and more value per ton
Beyond traditional products, the analysis of the value per ton exported between January and July reveals a clear trend towards the sophistication of Argentina's supply. Transformed products stand out, many of them ready for consumption, reaching significantly high values in international markets.
Among the most valuable per ton exported are seeds (45,500 USD/tn), essential oils (23,000 USD/tn), chilled or fresh beef (10,428 USD/tn), jojoba oil (9,528 USD/tn), cocoa and its derivatives (9,014 USD/tn), and shelled eggs (7,221 USD/tn).
Blue cheese (6,884 USD/tn), waxes (5,470 USD/tn), potato preparations (4,661 USD/tn), sparkling wine (4,656 USD/tn), clover seeds (3,978 USD/tn) and orange juice (3,776 USD/tn), among others, also obtained outstanding values.
In addition, there are emerging exports of non-traditional products such as soluble coffee, oregano, yerba mate concentrates, yeast and chocolate confections, demonstrating an expansion in the national agroindustrial supply.
International markets and regional development
The range of destinations also reflects a growing diversification. China, India, Brazil, Vietnam, Chile, the United States, Peru, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia and the Netherlands account for just over 50% of total exports.
This export dynamism is the result of a combination of factors: investments in technology and quality, greater organization of the production network, the opening of new markets, and public policies aimed at simplifying procedures, fostering innovation and promoting differentiation by value attributes.
