Overview

• The 8th Coninagro International Congress at the Bolsa de Cereales brought together governors Axel Kicillof, Maximiliano Pullaro and Rogelio Frigerio with Chief of Cabinet Guillermo Francos and sector leaders.
• Coninagro president Lucas Magnano said the agro‑cooperative sector generates six of every ten dollars entering the country and called for investment, long‑term planning and stronger education.
• Kicillof requested a meeting with President Javier Milei to restart national public works, citing Salado River dredging and national road repairs as urgent priorities.
• Pullaro renewed his demand to eliminate export taxes, arguing their removal would boost on‑farm investment, technology adoption and regional development.
• Francos defended the zero‑deficit strategy and said the government cannot fix decades‑old infrastructure problems in “a year and 8 months,” as the CREA Congress launched with 7,000+ registrants highlighting similar concerns about export taxes and competitiveness.
