Fuel supply in Argentina is slowly getting back to normal as an increase in the price at pumps has been admitted onto a negotiating table, it was reported in Buenos Aires. After shortages throughout the weekend, the Government acquiesced to an increase in the price of gasoline.
Due to fuel shortages in several parts of Argentina, some pumps were forced to sell only up to a quota per customer while others simply closed their activities on Thursday, it was reported in Buenos Aires.
Fuel shortages have been reported on both ends of the River Plate. But while supply is expected to be back to normal before the end of this week in Montevideo, Argentine rural producers are concerned that the lack of diesel might impact their activity shortly.
