The market forecasting report provides comprehensive data, with forecasts and estimates in "USD Million" for the period 2024 to 2028, as well as historical data from 2018 to 2022 for the following segments
The market share growth by the soya bean segment will be significant during the forecast period. In 2023, soya bean was one of the most produced and consumed crops in Argentina. According to the data published by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), soya bean production in Argentina in the fiscal year 2021-2022 was 49.5 million metric tons, making Argentina one of the largest producers and exporters of soya beans along with Brazil across Latin America (LATAM). Such factors will increase segment growth during the forecast period.

The soya bean segment was valued at USD 27.70 billion in 2018. In Argentina, the production of crops such as soya beans is increasing, driven by the increased demand for consuming soya beans and soy-based items due to several health advantages. Furthermore, soybeans contain hormone-like compounds (known as phytoestrogens) that replicate the action of the female hormone estrogen, resulting in the reduction of menopausal symptoms (such as hot flushes) among them. Additionally, an increasing number of customers nationwide are converting to veganism as a result of rising health awareness and the desire for nutritious diets is driving the need for the cultivation of crops, including soya beans, to fulfill the protein requirements of the vegan population. Thus, several vegan food manufacturers in Argentina are launching soy-based food items, leveraging the production of soya beans. Such offerings are estimated to fuel the growth of the soya bean segment of the agriculture market in Argentina during the forecast period.
The market in Argentina is experiencing significant growth and trends driven by various factors. The rapid development in the agriculture sector, coupled with technological advancements, is reshaping the landscape. Argentina's diverse agricultural activities, ranging from wheat cultivation to cultured wheat to fruit production, are benefiting from advancements in planting, harvesting, and irrigation machinery. Moreover, contractor services are increasingly contributing to efficiency and productivity in rural activities. The market is witnessing a surge in crop production, including wheat, oilseeds, fruits, and vegetables, fueled by the adoption of modern agricultural equipment. Additionally, the expanding applications of agricultural products in food, fabrics, fibers, and biofuel industries present lucrative opportunities for market growth. Despite these positive trends, challenges such as the high cost of agricultural machinery and potential restraints in regulatory frameworks may need to be addressed for sustained market expansion.
The increased potential of agricultural exports stands out as a pivotal driver propelling the growth of the market in Argentina. The nation's agriculture sector, buoyed by staple crops like wheat and supplemented by the cultivation of coffee and soy-based crops, holds considerable promise. Furthermore, the influx of agricultural machinery and technology from exporting countries like the United States bolsters Argentina's domestic poultry industry. To further fortify this sector, the Argentine government has initiated measures such as subsidies for the procurement of new imported agricultural equipment. Despite challenges like limited resources hindering the widespread adoption of advanced technologies like GPS, the market remains dynamic. With an emphasis on enhancing agricultural productivity through cost-effective solutions such as locally available fertilizers, the industry is poised for sustained growth during the forecast period.
Robots in agriculture are the most important growth trend in the market. In recent years, it has been observed that the use of robots has increased in the agricultural market in Argentina. Robots are equipped with specialized tools, accessories, and hands and arms to perform tasks accurately. They harvest effectively and efficiently using an automatic harvesting system. Mobile robots help conserve moisture in soil and plants. Automated robot controls help farmers take care of their crops and protect them from insects.
Moreover, agricultural robots can operate efficiently for longer periods of time and provide accurate responses. They can help detect water status and monitor crop levels, crop development, and crop composition. They also allow precise control of sowing and harvesting in agricultural fields. Therefore, smart farms are increasingly using advanced robots to control multiple variables in the farming process, driving the growth of the focused market during the forecast period.
The declining availability of farmland is a major challenge to the growth of the market. Arable land is defined as land that can be plowed for planting and growing crops. In recent decades, the amount of land used for growing crops in Argentina has decreased rapidly. Factors such as industrialization, urbanization, and energy demand have led to the reduction of agricultural land and its diversion to other uses such as construction.
In addition, soil erosion and soil pollution in recent decades have reduced the quality of agricultural land and the ability to grow crops, which has also contributed to land loss. Plowing is an important agricultural activity to ensure that fertile soil is applied. However, soil erosion and pollution have caused a decline in crop production, which ultimately reduces agricultural activity. This is expected to further challenge the growth of the agricultural market in Argentina during the forecast period.
