Gustavo Petro criticized the Minister of Agriculture for talking about stopping rice cultivation and called the proposal miserable for the Colombian people. He argued that rice was nutritious and that the country should move towards food self-sufficiency. He warned that a fall in the peso, a mega-drought, and rising food prices would increase hunger. He also stated that the Ibagué plateau had rice yields similar to those of the United States. Petro said he had proposed a "rice route" that would include cooperative mills owned by producers, cheap credit, cooperation with Chinese universities to improve techniques and productivity, tariff protection, and the expansion of rice-growing areas. He also suggested building the road between Ayapel, San Marcos, and Magangué, deepening agrarian reform in Magangué and southern Bolívar, and allowing water to flow in La Mojana. He asserted that Colombia should produce more cereals and replace extensive livestock farming on 15 million hectares of fertile land with food agriculture in the hands of peasant farmers and small and medium producers. He added that cashew production was important, but not as a substitute for rice-growing areas: he proposed cultivating it in low-productivity livestock areas, as a voluntary alternative to coca leaf crops and in the Colombian altillanura. Petro linked the minister's announcement about rice production to land burning in Tolima due to human action and to what he described as the idea of Abelardo and Restrepo of substituting production and intensive labor for hydrocarbon extraction and activities with less employment. https://t.co/zB0X6wz13i #Arroz #AutosuficienciaAlimentaria #ProducciónAgrícola (translated)

Gustavo Petro criticized the minister of agriculture's stance on discontinuing rice cultivation, calling it harmful to the Colombian population. He argued that rice was nutritious and that Colombia should move towards food self-sufficiency. He added that a decline in the peso, a mega-drought, and rising food prices could exacerbate hunger. Petro stated that the productivity of rice in the Ibagué plateau was similar to that of the United States. He said he had proposed a "rice route" that would include cheap credit, protective tariffs, and the expansion of rice-growing areas. He also suggested that producers become cooperative owners of mills, as in Zulia, Norte de Santander; promote an agreement with Chinese universities to improve techniques and productivity; build the road between Ayapel, San Marcos, and Magangué; deepen agrarian reform in Magangué and southern Bolívar; and allow water flow in the Mojana. Petro defended increasing the production of cereal foods and proposed replacing extensive livestock farming on 15 million hectares of fertile land with food agriculture led by peasants and small and medium-sized producers. https://t.co/zB0X6wz13i #AgriculturaColombia #SoberaníaAlimentaria #ProducciónDeAlimentos (translated)

Soutenir l'Ukraine, ce n'est pas un choix humanitaire pour se faire plaisir. C'est l'intérêt immédiat des Français. C'est éviter que les prix des céréales et du caddie explosent. C'est éviter la probable plus grande crise migratoire jamais vue sur notre continent. Je https://t.co/1Ib7CKnVtM #Ukraine #CriseMigratoire #PrixDesCéréales #UA #FR
