Ms Fernandez, who was forced to abandon tax increases on farm exports, said she would not change any of her decisions.
Her only mistake was to underestimate the power of the opposition, she said.
She added that she would make no further changes to her cabinet, which was reshuffled after the reforms were defeated in the Senate last month.
The left-wing Argentine president also dismissed claims that her husband, former President Nestor Kirchner, was running her admnistration.
"Comments of that nature come from a biased reading of reality," she said.
"We're simply a political team that has worked for a long time with the same vision and common ideas about the society we want."
About her defeated plan to increase taxes on agricultural exports, she said she had no regrets.
She added that high agricultural profits in the face of soaring world food prices "should be taken up as an instrument of economic policy".
The proposals provoked months of protest by farmers.
Farmers said the taxes would be crippling, but the government said they were needed to fight poverty.
