A federal injunction now freezes Decree 462/2025 actions for six months with penalties for noncompliance.

Overview

  • Argentina’s Economy Ministry formally notified INTA to comply with the San Martín court order, instructing the institute to abstain from any actions stemming from Decree 462/2025.
  • The ministry’s Resolution 1240/2025 placing about 286–300 INTA workers in disponibilidad is suspended, while similar measures at the INV remain pending judicial review.
  • Judge Martina Isabel Forns ratified and expanded the injunction, attaching a 10 million–peso daily fine for any breach by the State.
  • INTA units report a cash‑flow crunch and stalled services and research after losing financial autonomy under centralization into the Economy Ministry.
