    Nuevos precios para productos agrícolas en el campo y el mostrador

    In line with the policies in the country, new prices will come into force, as of next November 22, in all establishments in the province of Ciego de Ávila, both state and private sectors, that intervene in the commercialization of agricultural products.

    Yeisel Vega González, deputy director of the Provincial Storage Company, explained that after the cost sheets of the products, the lack of fertilizers, pesticides, fungicides, other chemical products and the price of fuels were valued, new prices were formed for purchases from farmers and sales in the retail network.

    The formation of these costs also derived from a process of exchange with producers, marketers and officials of the local and provincial governments of the People's Power, whose criteria allowed the formulation of a proposal, approved by the Temporary Working Group.

    Vega González specified that the prices for xanthosoma and colocasia taro, sweet potato, banana in all its varieties (fruit, viand and pome) and cassava will be met, the last one with values ​​that will vary depending on the time of year.

    The merchants will have a commercial margin of up to 40 percent, which may decrease according to the expenses they incur during the purchase and the transfer, so that the marketers can adjust, but never exceed the imposed limits, the manager of the Provincial Storage Company clarified.

    The prices of pumpkin, cabbage and tomato ―he clarified― will be agreed in the field between producers and buyers, who will present their proposal to the price and contracting committees of local governments, a body that will meet weekly to determine, approve and subsequently communicate the prices to the population, as established in Decree Law 35/2021.

    The remaining vegetables, fruits, citrus and grains will be released by supply and demand, he specified.

    The attention to what is established in Resolution 348/2020 of the Ministry of Finance and Prices, the maximum retail prices for sales of medical diets were also approved, trying to minimize the effects on people with different illnesses.

    "The State protects these individuals by subsidizing products such as taro and banana (in all their varieties), sweet potato, pumpkin, guava and papaya," Vega González highlighted.

    The leader insisted that the workers of the 130 establishments linked to the commercialization of agricultural products must ensure compliance with the quality-price correlation, despite the limitations of inputs to produce, which causes effects on the quality of the crops.

    Under the current circumstances, readjustments in the quality standards are foreseen, considering, fundamentally, the variations in the size of the products, due to the deficit of inputs, which complicates the compliance with the regulations in force regarding the first, second and third quality products, he added.
