Regarding the news of budget contingency of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (Mapa), the Association of Breeders of Mato Grosso (ACRIMAT) hopes that this contingency does not harm the actions and policies underway by the ministry, such as those aimed at the health of our livestock, as well as the production and distribution of food that reaches the tables of both Brazilians and the hundreds of countries that depend on our production.
The Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply is a century-old organization and it was thanks to it that, together with research and the work of rural producers, Brazil went from a recent past in the 1970s, where we were food importers, to one of the largest international players in agribusiness, feeding more than a billion people.
It is the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (MAPA) that endorses and certifies our products and, most importantly, monitors and controls barriers to the entry and spread of diseases. For this reason, we hope that this is a temporary contingency and that it will not cause harm to agribusiness activities, which have already been impacted, as has the world, by the pandemic and, currently, by the Russia-Ukraine war.
