# Dollars: despite October record, 2026 grain exports to bring in US$28.2 billion, 10% less than last year

> Argentina's agro-export sector is projected to earn about US$28.2 billion in 2026, roughly 10% below the US$31.4 billion of 2025. Earnings for January to October reached US$25.2 billion, 14% below the prior year, despite a strong October. Lower international prices and the Black Sea conflict are cited as key factors.

## Why it matters

Lower projected export earnings reflect weaker world prices and Black Sea disruption, signalling soft farm-export demand for Argentine currency and a cautious outlook for grain pricing.
