Overview
- At the dairy expo’s opening in San Francisco, Córdoba on Tuesday, the Santa Fe and Córdoba governors urged the national government to scrap agricultural export taxes known as retenciones.
- They also called for national investment in highways and energy to cut production costs and help factories and farms add jobs.
- Llaryora asked that the proposed “Súper RIGI” tax‑incentive regime include relief for the farm sector so more money stays with producers and local towns.
- Both leaders framed the Región Centro of Santa Fe, Córdoba and Entre Ríos as Argentina’s most productive area and promoted a growth model based on work and industrialized agriculture rather than social assistance.
- No policy shift was announced, and the governors reiterated support for a Senate biofuels law as they try to shape tax and infrastructure reforms that could boost the dairy belt’s incomes and reinvestment.
