Record Harvest: Over 4,200 Trucks Arrive at Gran Rosario Ports Amid Strong Export Pace

Argentina's Gran Rosario port complex is experiencing a significant influx of trucks, with over 4,200 vehicles arriving on a single Tuesday, driven by a robust pace of corn exports. This figure represents a substantial increase compared to previous days and the same period in 2025, highlighting the strong performance of the agricultural sector.

Farmers are the foundation of our value chain, and the quality of our beers begins with the quality of the crops they produce.

The primary driver of this surge is corn, which constituted more than half of the total truck arrivals. This is supported by a projected record corn harvest of 70.5 million tons, according to the Rosario Board of Trade. The strong demand from international markets, including Asia, North Africa, and the Middle East, coupled with the competitiveness of Argentine corn, is fueling these high export volumes.

Export sources indicate that the current movement is directly linked to the corn shipments scheduled for August and September. Declarations of Foreign Sales for corn with an August shipping period reached 6.51 million tons, with an additional 3.51 million tons planned for September. This intensified activity at the terminals is a direct response to these export commitments.

I'm grateful for the knowledge given to me, but the prices for our crop is lower than the cost of production.

Agricultural market specialists note that the flow of corn to ports has been consistently strong since the late corn harvest began. Despite challenges such as grain moisture content, the volume of corn heading to ports currently surpasses that of soybeans. This trend underscores the significant role of corn in Argentina's agricultural exports and its strong position in the global market.

We had formed an association to collectively address some of the challenges and reduce dependence on support from buyers, but we still need help.
