# More Santa Fe agricultural entities join to reject the export duty increase

> The Santa Fe grain and oilseed collectors' centre and the Rosario collectors' guild issued a joint statement rejecting the increase in export duties in the government's 'Bases' bill. They backed Governor Maximiliano Pullaro and called the measure counterproductive for the whole agricultural chain. They argued it would cut profitability, discourage investment and add pressure on a sector already hit by climate problems.

## Why it matters

If the proposed duty increase passes, farmgate prices would fall and farmers could hold grain or shift sales timing, which would tighten nearby Argentine soybean and meal flows. The outcome depends on the legislative process, so the price effect is uncertain for now.
