Overview

• Resolution 48/2025 from the Secretaría de Transporte, signed by Luis Octavio Pierrini, was published in the Boletín Oficial on September 4.
• It formally abrogates Resolution 8/2016 and Joint Resolution 1/2023, which had set reference rates for grain and related cargo.
• Prices will now be set directly between transporters and cargo owners, building on a March 2025 sector agreement without state mediation.
• The government frames the change as regulatory simplification to foster competition and transparency, and ordered notifications to CNRT and ARCA.
• The decision follows withdrawals from tariff tables by FADEEAC, FAETyL and the Sociedad Rural Argentina, with market impacts to be monitored.
