# Argentina oilseed wage talks continue as strike risk enters decisive phase | S&P Global

> Argentine oilseed unions and exporters failed to reach a wage agreement on June 24 after more than four hours of talks at the National Labor Secretariat. The unions' demand is a 20% wage increase, and a final hearing is set for June 25, just hours before the mandatory conciliation period expires.
