The production sector feels ignored

FEPLAC - It is neither logical nor respectful to family livestock businesses that risk their entire assets to save the livestock industry, that they are unaware of what changes or plans the competent authorities are preparing, learning about them through the press, and that they will be implemented without any awareness of our concerns and urgent needs, distancing themselves every day from the current agricultural and livestock reality.
FEPLAC requests that the Xunta de Galicia inform livestock graphic design services producers of all the changes it intends to make or proposes to the Ministry and Brussels, if appropriate. We must not forget that Galicia produces 40% of Spain's milk, and the Xunta must have a strong and clear voice in this regard. Therefore, it must propose changes agreed upon with producers and, at the very least, inform them; something that is not happening today, given the worst situation livestock producers have experienced in the history of the European Union.
At FEPLAC, we don't understand the administration's veto of organized livestock businesses, and we believe that all stakeholders in the sector should be at the decision-making tables to seek agreements that are so necessary in the face of the ruin of thousands of dairy farms that are going bankrupt every day.
The Xunta de Galicia and its Rural Environment Ministry should understand that the dairy farming sector is essential to prevent further impoverishment of rural Galicia, and that all stakeholders who have invested in it and depend on it must be heard. And it's possible that, with the same amount of money, more can be achieved if everyone is heard.
