Economy Minister Luis Caputo said Argentina could eliminate all agricultural export taxes if Javier Milei wins a second term. He cited existing cuts and gradual reductions scheduled to begin in January 2027 for soybeans, corn, sunflower and sorghum.
Lower export taxes could encourage Argentine producers to sell more abroad, increasing exportable grain supplies and weighing on global prices. The stated full elimination is conditional on a future election, so the near-term effect is limited.
