In a note distributed to the professional press on the afternoon of this Wednesday (15), the Parliamentary Agricultural Front informs that the construction of a proposal for the renegotiation of rural debts has advanced from the dialogue with the president of the Chamber of Deputies, Hugo Motta, and the Ministry of Finance. For the FPA, the possible understanding represents a response to the urgency faced by thousands of producers who need to reorganize their debts, regain access to credit and resume production. The group has always prioritized the demands of rural producers in all negotiations, from the processing of PL 5.122/2023 to the draft of the Provisional Measure presented by the government. In this way, we acted to preserve the central points of the project discussed: rehabilitation of credit with low interest rates, resumption of the productive cycle and conditions for the producer to return to paying, investing and producing. The Provisional Measure, to be published later this Wednesday (15), should be treated as an immediate response to the field, halting the escalation of rural debt. The priority is to ensure that producers affected by successive losses, weather events, income reduction, and increased costs have access to cheaper credit to reorganize production. This will allow them to access the 26/27 Harvest Plan and continue to guarantee food security for Brazilians. The FPA will continue to monitor this issue until its full implementation.
