Argentina Veterinary Services Market Overview, 2028

Argentina places a strong emphasis on animal health and disease control. The Veterinary Services work to prevent, monitor, and control diseases that affect livestock, including cattle, sheep, pigs, and poultry. This is essential for maintaining the country's robust agricultural sector and meeting international trade standards. Argentina's agricultural history dates back to the indigenous peoples, who practised rudimentary forms of animal husbandry. With the arrival of Spanish colonists in the 16th century, European livestock, including cattle, horses, and sheep, were introduced. Veterinary practises during this period were primarily focused on managing livestock health. In the 19th century, Argentina's cattle industry began to flourish, and veterinary medicine began to take shape as a profession. The government established veterinary schools and research institutions to support the growing livestock sector. The 20th century saw the formalisation of veterinary medicine as a profession in Argentina. The Argentine Veterinary Medical Association (Colegio Medico Veterinario) was founded in 1931 to regulate the practise and education of veterinarians. Argentina's veterinary services played a pivotal role in ensuring the health and safety of its livestock, contributing to the country's emergence as a major exporter of beef and other animal products. Strict sanitary controls were implemented to meet international trade standards.
