The inconsistencies were detected in the last 30 days and are equivalent to more than 158 trailer trucks: soybeans accounted for more than 65% of the grains detected in violation (3,179 tons).
The products that were identified in violation over the last month are mainly soybeans, wheat and corn, but irregularities were also found in the marketing of sugar, oats, birdseed, garlic and seeds for growing fodder grass.
In this way, between September 2021 and February 2022, the AFIP interdicted more than 35,500 tons of grain, the collection agency highlighted in a statement.
In addition, he stressed that the control contemplates different tools incorporated in 2021, such as the digitization of the consignment note, the only valid document to transport grains within the country.
Likewise, the AFIP advanced with the use of satellite images to corroborate the information provided by producers and farm owners in their affidavits, according to the official text.
The agency’s inspectors worked in coordination with Customs and federal security forces.
For example, in a single operation in Concepción del Uruguay, Entre Ríos, the DGI interdicted 1,266 tons of soybeans after identifying that a firm did not have operational, economic and financial capacity, in addition to being included in the taxpayer database “not reliable”.
Another maneuver detected as part of the investigation was that this company issued bills of lading for the alleged transfer of the grain, but that they had the same destination and recipient.
Among other procedures, an operation carried out at a National Gendarmerie checkpoint in Villa Olivari, Corrientes, made it possible to detect 270 tons of soybeans, 120 tons of corn, and 90 tons of broken corn in bulk that were being transported in 16 trucks to the Misiones province.
