# Truckers' Strike Lifted After Argentine Ports Disrupted; Export Revenue at Risk

> The Argentine truckers' union Siunfletra lifted a protest that had blocked access to the country's grain ports. The lift followed a meeting at the Labour Ministry, where officials agreed to convert indicative freight tariffs into mandatory floor tariffs. The stoppage came amid lower grain and oilseed output from drought.

## Why it matters

Port access disruptions can delay soybean meal and oil loadings from Argentina's crush plants, briefly supporting FOB premiums; with the strike ended, the effect should be short-lived.
