Study Says Córdoba Agriculture Pays ARS 565 Billion in Indirect Gross Receipts as Province Moves to Index 2026 Rural Tax

Officials plan to tie next year's property levy to the wholesale price index, sharpening debate over how to fund rural infrastructure.

Overview

  • Néstor Roulet’s report estimates the sector’s indirect contribution to Córdoba’s Gross Receipts Tax at about ARS 565.14 billion, based on pass-through costs in a pluriphase, cumulative system.
  • The study’s conservative method counts mainly the last link in supply chains and breaks down ARS 206.84 billion from soy, ARS 193.57 billion from corn, ARS 69.65 billion from wheat, ARS 52.80 billion from dairy, and ARS 42.18 billion from beef.
  • The estimated Gross Receipts burden is more than double the 2024 Rural Property Tax take of ARS 256 billion, bringing the combined total to roughly ARS 821.14 billion and equating to 21% of Córdoba’s ARS 2.614 trillion Gross Receipts revenue.
  • Roulet argues the figures warrant considering a share of Gross Receipts flowing to the Agricultural Development Fund instead of relying chiefly on yearly increases to the land tax.
  • Separately, the province and farm groups agreed to update the 2026 Rural Property Tax using the wholesale price index (about 29–30%), keep the 30% good-payer and 5% BPA discounts, add a new 5% owner-operator benefit, test a 550,000-hectare multi-risk insurance for severe losses, and allow a single payment without adjustment until May 10.
