Argentina: Livestock and Products Semi-annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   AR2025-0005
Argentine beef exports in 2025 are forecast to decline to 770,000 metric tons carcass weight equivalent (CWE), primarily due to a projected decrease in beef production and production costs in dollar terms that are higher than those of neighboring competitor countries. The 2025 cattle slaughter is projected at 13.4 million head, lower than previously estimated due to the early slaughter of some cattle in 2024 in response to weather and market conditions. Domestic beef consumption is expected to remain unchanged from previous forecasts and from 2024 levels.
