“Today we are with a project in the legislature that will mark a before and after. This is a new emergency law due to drought, which has already had a half sanction in the Senate. I thank the senators because it is an important tool. If we had this law, these funds would have arrived two months ago. The current emergency law is useless, many producers still need to be reached,” he said in dialogue with the press.
“We are having a lot of work, this was done with our own legislators and the opposition, universities, journalists, sectors of the field. We have to put the effort in deputies so that this becomes law.”
The credits you presented are about deliveries of up to 500 thousand pesos, at zero rate with a term of 18 months and 12 months of grace. It was done through the Development Association, which has already exceeded 200 million pesos in delivery.
“We are going to be here in the delivery of funds, then we will meet with the entities and authorities. It will be to see how we continue, how we accompany the process, It is not just money, it has to do with logistics, with the transfer of water… This is going to continue in this way, we spoke with all the rurales, with the legislators. We will do the same thing that we do in Reconquista in Vera,” he finally said.
