With respect to Anti-Hail Fighthe Governor Alfredo Cornejo He said that “we need to have an adequate system.” He recalled that during his first administration, the Agricultural Insurance and said it “worked well.” He further pointed out that macroeconomic mismanagement distorts prices, “which is why the amount paid for agricultural insurance is the same as the amount paid for car insurance.”
“When prices are so distorted, it turns out that what is paid for insurance is not enough to repair the car and so on. Well, that happened with the previous agricultural insurance. That was not the responsibility of the Province.”
“We aspire to protect the producer, fundamentally from hail storms, with insurance and credits for anti-hail mesh,” said Cornejo. and pointed out that “what is being spent in the company is a lot of money and no one has proven that it is effective for that protection, so we prefer to reconvert that system and protect.”
Furthermore, he assured that “we are going to give it an order that has to do with the whitening of the economy, with trying to get all those companies and farms in the South to whiten their work so that we can give them credit.” And he recalled that Mendoza has developed the anti-hail net system that has suppliers and offers credits.
“Last year only 90 credits were given for the anti-hail mesh and we aspire to give more, we also need to subsidize the rate and spend money on that, on making the credits cheap. And that is quite a management task that we believe we are prepared to do well and meet the ultimate objective of protecting farmers,” concluded the Governor.
