Farmers in ruin '.

They can attest. "
"Concern for the difficulties that this sector has presented has been and is always present in the meetings of this mayor with councilors even transferred to any of the institutions. The irrigators themselves can ensure that they have always had the doors open from my office to any time of day The proof of everything I am affirming is here today, claiming with them the immediate solution to their problems, which are also ours, "concludes the first councilor.
Protesters chanted a motto in unison throughout the tour: 'Without farmers and ranchers, what will we eat tomorrow?'
