“Although the benefits of the measures and their encouragement in sugarcane production are recognized, there is a group of objective and subjective factors that limit their scope,” said the president of Azcuba, Julio García, at the V plenary session of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba that has been in session since yesterday in Havana.
The official mentioned, according to the official diary Granmathat these limitations are related “to the completion of the labor force, the creation of conditions to organize the collectives, labor and technological discipline.”
Félix Duarte affirmed that “this harvest will be the smallest that we will do in 64 years of Revolution”
He added that there are also “financial problems and lack of inputs.”
A year ago, during the III Plenum of the Central Committee of the PCC, these measures were implemented, which included actions aimed at the generation of electricity, the production of cane and its derivatives, as well as provisions on financing, logistics, business management and science, technology and innovation.
At the partisan meeting this Saturday, the head of the Agrifood Department of the Central Committee, Félix Duarte, affirmed that “this harvest will be the smallest that we will do in 64 years of Revolution.”
The sugar industry was in other times the economic locomotive of Cuba, but it suffered a drastic drop in production starting in the 1990s with the crisis after the fall of the Soviet bloc.
