# Export duties leave Argentina last in global ranking of farm support, study shows

> A new OECD report ranks Argentina last among 56 countries for agricultural producer support, with policies reducing producers' gross income by about 15% in 2025. Export duties are the main cause, and the study does not include the latest 2026 duty cuts or the scheduled cuts for 2027 and 2028.

## Why it matters

Export taxes keep domestic prices below world prices, which limits Argentine soy and grain export competitiveness and planting incentives. The effect on world prices is modest because the report covers past policy rather than new changes.
