Caprolecoba has endorsed the removal of export duties for the agricultural sector, emphasizing the crucial role of cooperatives in the Argentine dairy supply chain.

The Cámara de Productores de Leche de la Cuenca Oeste (CAPROLECOBA) has publicly supported the removal of export duties for the agricultural sector. In its statement, the organization highlighted that this step would unlock productive capacity, enhance income, and encourage investment in rural regions. CAPROLECOBA argued that these duties are a distorting mechanism that penalizes producers and discourage value addition at the source.
They further stated that removing these taxes is essential for a policy that promotes the genuine generation of foreign currency. The organization also underscored the historical role of dairy cooperatives, born in 1938, in organizing and defending dairy farmers' interests. It believes the focus of the debate should be on cooperatives' adaptability, commitment to producers, and their contribution to the dairy supply chain development. CAPROLECOBA insists that eliminating export duties would immediately benefit primary producers, restoring profitability and competitiveness in the challenging Argentine dairy landscape.
