After several hours of meeting in the city of La Paz, the representatives of the National Confederation of Meat Workers of Bolivia (Contracabol) and the national government decided to give an interim period, until Thursday, to analyze the price of meat in the country again.

Marketers insist on temporarily stopping exports, until product prices dropespecially in the markets of La Paz, where the hook kilo is around Bs 35.

“They attribute that the export of meat is generating the rise in price and in the delivery of poor quality livestock to citizens,” he said.The Minister of Rural Development and Lands, Yamil Flores, this Tuesday night, at the conclusion of the meeting.

He added that the version of ranchers and businessmen is different and that they maintain that they have enough meat to supply the national market. “We are going to meet with exporters and ranchers on Thursday, so that we can see where the origin of the concern they have is,” Flores added.

For its part, Santiago Aguilar, executive of the Confederation of Meat Workers of Bolivia, indicated that if there is no solution until Thursday They will go on a national strike.

The butchers had announced, as of Monday, the start of a indefinite unemployment throughout the country, in protest against the high prices of animal protein, accusing the sector rancher as the promoter of the rise, while they deny speculation and argue the high production costs due to the shortage of dollars, diesel and the drought.

According to the leader in the markets of La Paz, a kilo of prime meat can reach up to Bs 70, while second-rate cuts, up to Bs 50.
