Abstract
Argentina is one of the five major wool producing
and exporting countries in the world. Because of the traditionally large proportion of coarser
wools in the Argentinian wool clip, wool exports from
Argentina have historically been considered a major
competitor with New Zealand exports. It is logical,
therefore, that the New Zealand wool industry should take
interest in, and be watchful of, Argentinian wool
production, consumption and exporting trends. The current report represents part of
a programme aimed at fulfilling such a need by
examining recent trends in the wool industry of
Argentina.
