"Pushing" would be only the final step. But that is only allowed for
registered developers.

To start: Follow the instructions in section 7 of the documentation:

https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/guix.html#Contributing

To summarize it, you need to clone the git sources and then add your
package definition to the gnu/packages/cran.scm file, commit your
changes with a commit message as explained in section 7.5 (Submitting
Patches). Finally instead of pushing, you generate a patch file with
`git format-patch` and send it to the patches tracker.

Does that sound reasonable?

Björn
