The province of Buenos Aires is the epicenter of agricultural production in Argentina, if we take into account its participation in the production and main export of crops and meat. Within its territory, its geography is diverse and has regions of very different specialization, where historically agricultural, livestock or rotation activities have prevailed. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of recent policies (particularly in the last 10 years) on the production of the main crops and livestock in the province, as well as on concentration and exports on aggregate level. For this purpose, province regions are discriminated, main productive results are observed in relation to recent changes and the export performance and ownership scales are examined, based on preliminary results of the 2018 National Argentinian Census of Agriculture.
