Actuality

As part of the #ParliamentaryVisit in Vertientes, Ramón Aguilar Betancourt, president of the Agricultural and Food Commission in the #NationalAssembly, exchanged views with the management council of the Municipal Agroindustrial Company. He inquired about the economic conditions and the currently depressed productive results. He also asked about the usufructuaries involved, about 48 to date, but this will not be the solution.

 "They need to redesign their entire economic architecture and seek new mechanisms that generate financial sources in order to negotiate with the bank branches," insisted Aguilar Betancourt. The labor collectives: Laguna de Guano and Manolo today reflect the company's priorities aimed at livestock development, commented Ridel Pérez Telfo, director of the local entity. "They need to think about cooperative productions with livestock farmers and negotiate to generate income," explained Jorge Luis Jiménez Delegado, delegate of Agriculture in Camagüey. "The biggest problem of the entity is financing, and in livestock and the establishment of breeding yards must be the vision to increase marketing and achieve business development," he said.

The utilization of the conditions and potentials of the municipality, the opening of economic sectors with vision: among them the marketing of charcoal, making machinery and transportation available to other organizations such as communal groups for the collection of solid waste, and using existing funds to develop the company, among other mechanisms. We must apply all the existing intelligence of the municipality and scientifically contribute to the creation of a working team, and together strengthen secure lines for a better economic health of the Municipal Agroindustrial Company, commented Jorge Luis Jiménez. "We need to think about other things that can be done beyond providing services and generate our own productions to seek sustainability," urged Ramón Aguilar, who called for being objective, "with management models that transform the reality of this fundamental company in the Vertientes strategy." pointed out the president of the Agro-Food Commission of the National Assembly during the Parliamentary Visit to the central southern area of Agramonte.
