  • When did soybean production start in Argentina?
  • The story of soybean production in Argentina began in the 1970s, and production increased rapidly in the 1990s, when genetically modified (GM) soybean varieties began to be commercialized in 1996. 4 This type of GM soybean was engineered to be herbicide resistant (primarily to the RoundUp Ready brand glyphosate).
  • What percentage of Argentine land is planted with soybeans?
  • Today, 63% of the harvested Argentine land is planted with soybeans, as is shown in Fig. 1. This commodity has very low domestic consumption, and its export revenues represent 31.8% of Argentina’s export income (INDEC, 2016). Soybean harvested Area in Argentina shows the soybean crop expansion from the 1970s to 2010.
  • What is the growth rate of soybeans in Argentina?
  • Soybean area in Argentina increased by a factor of 1.7, from 11.4 Mha in 2001 to 19.9 Mha in 2015 (average growth rate, 0.6 Mha yr −1), which then gradually declined to 16.3 Mha in 2019. Fig. 1: Soybean expansion across South America in the twenty-first century.
  • Does Argentina export soybeans?
  • Argentina also exports soy as raw beans to China (4.7 Mtonnes exported in 2021) and oil to India (4.2 Mtonnes in 2021). Following the lifting of the Registro de Operadores de Soja Autorizados in 2016, soybean imports into Argentina increased 440% from 0.9 Mtonnes in 2016 to 4.9 Mtonnes in 2021.
