The president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, launched this Tuesday the Trabuco Plan of the Local Supply and Production Committees (CLAP), with the delivery of 10,000 production kits throughout the national territory.

During his participation in the event for the 8th Anniversary of the CLAP, in the state of Guárico, the head of state stated that any community “can have its obstacles, because we have to turn all CLAP into productive CLAP, we agree. The Productive Trabuco Kit is born,” he said.

The Minister of Urban Agriculture, Jhoanna Carrillo, said that this initiative emerged from the debate on the seven transformations (7T) necessary for the country, due to “the need to leverage the country's CLAP with tools, supplies and technical support”.

Carrillo explained that the word trabuco comes from a concept of a weapon from the independence era, but in Venezuelan slang it is used to say that it is the best team the team. “That's why the CLAP is linked here with the Ministry of Urban Agriculture and the Great Agro Venezuela Mission and the Ministry of Food because you have to provide technical support so that you have basic tools,” he said.

The minister indicated that the goal is to reach 27,000 productive CLAP this year, of the 46,000 that exist in the country, detailing that the kits have “a fertilizer, seeds, for example it has chard, chili pepper and eggplant, but we have determined by the climatic floor of the area, that is, by the state of the area comes the bag with its support seeds”.
