Argentina's exporters cut corn, soybean and soybean meal export registrations in the week ending 4 July by more than half from a year earlier as export bookings for the month remained slow to build.
Exporters registered 787,000t of corn for export during the week, down by 56pc from the same week last year. That is the lowest volume registered in the past three weeks, according to the Secretariat of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries. Registrations were mostly split across July and September loading, with the 384,000t registered for July bringing total loadings for the month to 4.93mn t, or 7.8pc behind July 2025.
Soybean export registrations fell by 93pc last year's volume for the week to reach only 64,200t. Registrations for July loading accounted for most volumes, reaching 51,000t during the week. But the July export outlook is also likely to be lower from last year with 573,000t registered for loading by the end of the month, down by 61pc from July 2025.
Soybean meal export registrations fell to a 13-week low of 251,000t during the week, with 229,000t registered for July loading. While there was a notable dip in soybean meal export registration in the week, the focus on July loading did push volumes booked for the month above last July's by 3.2pc to 3.23mn t.
Other oilseed product exports were lower as well, with soybean oil registrations falling by 36pc from the previous year to 138,000t during the week ending 4 July. Exports of sunflower meal fell by 34pc from last year to 41,000t.
Export registrations for sunflower seed and oil were the exception, with both more than doubling from last year's volumes for the week to reach 45,300t and 65,200t, respectively.
Wheat registrations also increased by 11pc from last year to reach 130,000t during the week. But barley and sorghum export registrations followed corn lower to reach 43,200t and 270t, respectively.
