Eduardo Zegarra: Two urgent actions against the food crisis

“The first (action) is to promote fertilizer imports, especially urea. There is already a deficit of more than 180,000 tons of fertilizers that could not be imported. If there is no more fertilizer in the coming weeks, Peruvian agriculture, especially commercial, is going to face a very serious crisis. Secondly, an immediate measure is needed to raise the price of fresh milk to the winning producer”.

Eduardo Zegarra, Senior Researcher at GRADE, explained the two urgent actions that the government must take against the food crisis. Video of Wayka.
