Agriculture set the value of the green leaf at .08

The new values ​​represent an increase of 49.46% compared to the existing prices, which were last updated in May.

Amounts are close to what the producers wanted with the support of the government of Misiones and for the first time, the Nation made an award above what the market is paying, which at the moment is $65 per kilo of green leaf.

Prices were established for summer zafra (harvest) which extends between the months of October and March inclusive.

The missionary government requested a value of $75 for a kilo of green leaves, while the industrialists, with the support of the government of Corrientes, bid for a maximum of $55. It is the first time that the award establishes amounts above what the market is paying.

The Nation had to laud the price before the possibility that the twelve directors of the National Institute of Yerba Mate (Inym) agree on the price that, as established by the statute of the national body, must come out unanimously.

It is worth noting that for now this rise in the value that the mills pay to the producers will not affect the retail price paid by consumers, since the control of the output value of the yerba from the mills It is the power of the Ministry of Commerce.
