Argentina's peanut sector is facing challenges due to adverse weather conditions and the removal of a 25% tariff on US imports, making it difficult for the country to compete. With around 13,000 jobs and exports valued at $1,100 million annually, the sector is significant. Approximately 385,000 hectares are dedicated to peanut cultivation, with expectations of producing between 950,000 to 1,000,000 box tons under favorable weather conditions. However, potential losses due to delayed development and the risk of frost are looming. The sector is advocating for government support and investment in genetics to remain competitive, especially against Brazil's expanding industry.
