Why It Matters
Patos de Minas is a milk and agricultural producing region, where producers seek to improve income and productivity.
According to Azevedo, milk production in Patos de Minas and the region is a concern.
"Those who produce milk in Patos de Minas need income and not just volume. We are going to bring Emater's assistance and Epamig's research closer to the properties, because this way, in cooperation with Senar, we improve productivity and put more money in the pockets of those who produce", he said.
The candidate also presented a proposal for the flow of agricultural and livestock production in the region. According to him, using the railway can reduce costs.
"To benefit Patos de Minas, we want to connect production to the Serra do Tigre railway corridor. The truck takes the cargo to the railway terminal. The train travels long distances and integrates transport to reduce costs. It's cheaper food on the people's table", he concluded.
