The closure of the manufacturer leaves more than 10 million dollars in losses

The losses for Tierras Altas producers, due to the closure of the streets that lasted for more than 17 days, are estimated at more than 10 million dollars.

Lorenzo Jiménez, president of the Tierras Altas Producers Association, commented that very black panorama which they are experiencing, since they are practically kidnapped by the closing of the streets.

“Definitely a very dark perspective, because I can’t even say how gray, what is being experienced in Tierras Altas, where they are stealing our production”He said.

He added that these days it is open from 12 to 7 in the morning, but only for product entry.

“The interesting thing about the case is that this opening is only for canned goods, gasoline, and if the case will arrive, gas.”He said.

He expressed that, on the contrary, the release of his products, which continue, is not allowed kidnap

“Definitely, the question of the mines has already gone to the background, the struggle is no longer mining, this is a class struggle, where you see it, you notice that there are other forces that manipulate this situation to happen”he asserted.

Jiménez claimed that more than $10 million in losses for producers is estimated as a result of this up there.

This is in perishable products such as lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, celery, which are lost in a short time.

He pointed out that there are others who last a little longer, such as potatoes, onions, carrots, beets, onions, but in the long run they will also have losses, because the market will be saturated, if they had opened traffic normally.
