corn producers In the state they had already warned that they would return again to the takeover of toll booths when they did not observe progress in the requests that were made to the state governor, after a meeting they held a few weeks ago, where one of them was even to have a audience with the President of the Republic to explain to him the difficult situation that the countryside is going through not only in Sinaloabut throughout the country, but to date that meeting has not taken place, and it seems that it will no longer crystallize, that is why yesterday they got back on the road, although in an uncoordinated manner, since they only took a toll booth of the three that had been set as a goal.
The Cuatro Caminos booths in Guasave; that of Costa Rica in Culiacanas well as that of Alhuey in Angosturawere the target that the corn growers had set, but in the end only in the last one was the passage of vehicles freed up, since in Guasave they did not add more than 10 producers, while in Costa Rica they did not even come close, since the public force of the federal order anticipated them, ready to arrest them in case they wanted to alter the order, and the peasants right now the last thing they can boast of is having money, so they would not want to risk falling into jail just for putting into practice their right to express themselves.
They assure that the price of 5,457 pesos that the government announced per ton of corn for this cycle has not benefited them so far, since at 4,200 pesos they have been marketing their crops, a value that ultimately does not get them out of no rush, quite the opposite, which is why they will insist on meeting with AMLObecause in the state there is nothing more to do.
