BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA — March 13, 2026 — (NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE) — Within the framework of Expoagro 2026, the region’s most significant agribusiness exhibition, renowned political scientist, journalist, and international speaker Nancy Clara participated in a transformative summit for the future of Argentina's non-traditional exports. Invited by the Argentine Rural Women’s Group through cattle industry leader María Inés Macchi, the author of the strategic manual "Step by Step: How to Do Business with the USA" shared her vision on the new commercial paradigm emerging for local producers following the landmark trade agreement recently signed between Argentina and the United States.

The session, described by attendees as "enlightening and transformative," was led by a coalition of agribusiness leaders, including Vanesa Padullés (CONINAGRO Córdoba), Ana Laura Sayago, Carolina Bruzzese, Chechu Giorgi, and María José De Lazzer. This federal summit not only celebrated the vital role of women in the field but also established itself as a strategic platform to professionalize regional industries through elite technical consulting.

High-level diplomacy: The book shaping the bilateral agenda 

A centerpiece of the visit was an institutional meeting coordinated by Dr. Luis Farji of the National Senate. During this exchange, Nancy Clara formally presented her work to Senator Patricia Bullrich. The Senator, a pivotal figure in the current political landscape, received the manual with great enthusiasm, highlighting the historic window of opportunity the country is currently experiencing.

"Receiving this manual from Nancy Clara is essential at this exact moment," stated Senator Patricia Bullrich. "We are in an unprecedented stage of engagement with the United States. With the recent trade agreement, Step by Step becomes the definitive tool our entrepreneurs and producers need to turn export potential into a successful and lasting reality."

Furthermore, Nancy Clara engaged in a fluid dialogue with Guillermo Francos, analyzing logistics challenges and the comparative advantages of Argentine business within the nation’s ongoing economic restructuring.

The strategic role of rural women

The day placed special emphasis on the Rural Women’s Network, a collective dedicated to empowering and professionalizing female talent across the agricultural value chain. Leaders such as María Inés Macchi participated actively, reaffirming that technical expertise is the definitive bridge to global competitiveness.

Ana Laura Sayago highlighted the network's impact: "Our mission is to democratize knowledge nationwide. We want every producer, from Santiago del Estero to Patagonia, to have a proven roadmap to reach American shelves." Vanesa Padullés added: "The specialized advisory we provide through our network is the differentiator between success and risk. At events like Expoagro, our goal is to scale our regional industries and reach even more women.”

Closing remarks by Nancy Clara

Reflecting on the impact of the summit, the author noted:

"I am deeply grateful for the invitation from this group of courageous and hardworking women. My goal is for Argentine talent to stop viewing the U.S. as a distant, unreachable market. This is the moment for regional industries; with methodology, resilience, and the right guidance, the quality of our products can successfully compete in any state across the Union."
