This is the first fall in Uruguay’s overall export levels by value since 2013 and it comes on the back of an identical 3.3% yearly decrease recorded in January, suggesting that this could be the start of a new downward trend. Indeed, the February results bring the cumulative export figure so far this year to US$1.1bn, 0.9% less than during the same period last year.
