Argentine Observatory of the Dairy Chain (OCLA)

The Argentine Observatory of the Dairy Chain (OCLA) plays a significant role in Argentina's dairy industry, providing essential insights and data analysis. One of its key reports includes the average farm-gate milk price in Argentina, a crucial financial indicator for the dairy market.

OCLA's recent inflation-adjusted series has highlighted that the average farm-gate milk price is at the lower end of its historical range for August over the past decade. This analysis reflects the amount received by producers for raw milk supplied to the dairy industry. Despite the low position in the historical series, the price remained broadly stable throughout 2026, indicating consistency in the market under challenging economic conditions.
