INYM Rolls Back Yerba Mate Rules, Ends Harvest Ban and Infractions Regime

Resolution 146/2025 redirects the institute to a competition‑focused role with streamlined oversight.

Overview

  • The INYM board published Resolution 146/2025 in the Boletín Oficial, its first major act under new chair Rodrigo Correa.
  • Key repeals include Resolution 15/2003, which set the sector’s sanctioning regime for quality and hygiene breaches, and Resolution 37/2007, which halted harvesting and drying in October and November.
  • The institute confirms it will verify product traceability, basic sanitary and quality conditions, and the consistency of sworn declarations, while stepping back from market interventions.
  • The control system for sworn declarations shifts to a Procedimiento Sumario Simplificado, and immediate inactivation rules tied to inspections under Resolution 103/2017 are scrapped.
  • The overhaul aligns INYM with DNU 70/2023 and Decree 812/2025 that bar price‑setting and stock controls, drawing support from deregulation advocates and concern from producers over potential impacts on quality and small‑scale growers.
