“Through an organized organization of all the actors, we can continue to provide sufficient and timely food to our people, always oriented to access at affordable prices,” said Minister Leal Telleria

He also emphasized that this productive engine will be strongly supported by an upcoming legal framework: “One of the most important vertices is the communal and local economy, which is being strengthened with a bill that will practically mesh and consolidate the great capacity of local production, peasant agriculture, small producers and, above all, communal production,” he explained.

In addition to addressing strategic areas such as research, innovation and agricultural development, combining scientific advances with the ancestral knowledge of communities.

“We have come from a lot of hard work, from many victories and achievements in the agri-food sector.
