Argentine agricultural and industrial economic crisis

Overview

Various agricultural and industrial sectors in Argentina are reporting significant economic instability and declining competitiveness. In Mendoza, the wine and peach industries are facing a prolonged crisis. The wine sector has been in a ‘red zone’ for 41 consecutive months, characterized by a 30% year-on-year drop in producer prices and a shrinking share of the final price. The peach industry is struggling with rising energy and fuel costs, leading to factory closures and orchard abandonment.

In other regions, such as Mesopotamia and Norte Grande, industrial leaders are calling for structural reforms to address economic challenges. In Misiones, forest industry representatives are seeking improvements in energy tariffs, road infrastructure, and VAT refund processes. In Chaco, industrial organizations have warned that a lack of domestic consumption and the paralysis of public works are hindering employment and production. Across these sectors, there is a shared concern regarding rising logistics costs, shrinking profit margins, and the impact of economic contraction on small and medium-sized enterprises.
