Argentina's brief 48-hour pause on crop export tariffs drew about US$7 billion in scheduled shipments, with nearly 20 million metric tons of oilseed and grain booked, the most in USDA data since 2011. Tariffs were reinstated within two days, with levies around 25% on soy and about 10% on corn and wheat.
The surge front-loads Argentine export supply into a short window, likely pressuring near-term soymeal, soyoil and corn export prices while exporters and farmers deal with the fallout and potential shipment delays.
