With tractors, cows and pigs, agricultural producers protest in Paseo Colón

Small farmers and farmers grouped together in different organizations are demonstrating in the center of Buenos Aires in front of the Ministry of Agribusiness in demand for the import of food and social monotributo.

Protesters from the Agrarian Federation of Argentina (FAA), the Union Trabajadores de la Terra (UTT), the National Front of Farmers and the Agrupación Grito de Alcorta request an "immediate hearing" at Minister of Agri-Food of the Nation, Luis Miguel Etchevehere

The peasants argued that Social Monotributo "was the only tool for the regularization of the work that the state had for the sector". In this sense, they consider that if the government goes ahead with the elimination of the program, "they eliminate the possibility that the small producer is recognized as a subject that invests, produces and markets, and the right to enjoy the Obra Social and Retirement. "

The march that has its epicenter in the city of Buenos Aires is replicated in 16 provinces of the country." We demand rights, health and retirement!
We need the government to take urgent measures, restore the agricultural social monotributo and have public policies for agricultural workers ", ask the agricultural leaders
