In fourth and fifth place in the ranking were oil and fishing provinces: Chubut, with 3.7% of the total; and Santa Cruz, with 3%.

With the 2.2% an eminently agricultural province was located, as is the case of Between rivers; while seventh place went to Mendoza, with 2.1%, explained essentially by the production of wines and fruits.

All the provinces of the Northeast contributed 1.6% as a whole, led by Misiones with 0.6%, Chaco, 0.5%; Currents, 0.4%; and Formosa with 0.1%.

While, the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires contributed 0.4%, but this record includes tradable goods, and not services, such as financial services, or consultancies.

According to Indec data, the 30% of what was exported last year originated in the soybean complex, 11.9% from corn, and recently in third place, with 9.1%, is the automotive sector.

Of the US$78 billion sold abroad, 6.7% came from the oil-petrochemical sector, where Santa Cruz and Chubut “weigh”; 4.6% for beef exports; 4.5% for the wheat complex; and 3.7% for gold and silver mining exports.

Unlike what happened during 2020, due to the brake on international trade generated by the coronavirus pandemic, in 2021 there were 33 uploads out of a total of 40 export complexes surveyed by INDEC.

Only The complexes of peanuts, lemon, pears and apples, garlic, yerba mate, blueberries, and chickpeas presented year-on-year falls.

Among those that maintained the position of the previous year, the dairy sector remained in tenth place, with total sales abroad of US$1,164 million and an increase of 16.2% compared to 2020.
