In the midst of the lost Gasoline Registered in different regions of the country, the multinational food company Nestle has warned dairy farmers who supply milk that it is “likely in the coming days” it will “start problems” in raw material collection logistics. Institutions.

The company obtains raw materials from dairy farmers, which it later converts into milk powder. Most of these processed products are exported and some of them are destined for the local market in this way. It does not sell liquid milk on the domestic market.

Strictly speaking, as explained in the sector, its warning to dairy farmers about diesel does not pose a risk to the product market in general. As a mechanism, communication is somewhat formal due to contractual issues. In this context, it is a sign of how companies are forced to deal with the fuel situation.

“As it is known to the public, we are in a very delicate situation in terms of supplying diesel to our transport fleet. For the time being, thanks to the forecasts we have received, milk collection is not in danger. But due to growing restrictions on supply, we are obliged to inform you that if this situation is not rectified, we may face problems in logistics in the coming days. The firm is listed in the circular from the supply zone for dairy farmers.

“We inform Nestle that this extraordinary situation and force majeure environment is absolutely not related to the company. This puts us in a completely unfavorable situation, which could affect the logistics of collecting dollars and / or unloading them in factories. ” Added the company.

In this context, another section of the circular states: “For our part, we coordinate all possible actions to minimize the impact, especially in the collection of milk. We also ask you to cooperate if necessary.

Demand

It should be borne in mind that due to the lack of diesel and additional taxes, self-proclaimed carriers carried out various road closures across the country, including the Buenos Aires-La Plata motorway.

The current scenario is leading to the mobilization of self-proclaimed producers and citizens, as happened this Saturday in Saint-Penia, with a rally in Chaco that gathered protesters from various neighboring cities.

There, among other things, the manifesto focused on diesel. “We demand urgent action from the governor [Jorge Capitanich]Without speeches, numbers and delays to solve the diesel shortage. Indicated in the letter.

“The lack of diesel from March to date is inconsistent in the crucial moments of transportation and logistics with the sowing of wheat and winter pastures during the full harvest of cotton, sorghum, soybeans and corn. “The increase in diesel prices is not solved by tariff increases, but by a constant and predictable energy policy,” they added.

They then targeted Dario Martinez, the national government’s energy secretary. The solution will not come from those who created the problem, so we demand the resignation of the nation’s energy secretary.

Presenting at the Chamber of Deputies, Julian Dominguez, the agriculture minister, said during the week that the economy ministry had informed him of the capacity of three ships of 55,000 cubic meters over the next few days.
