Uruguayan React, react!



Pulp Mills and environmental impact

URUGUAY REACTIONS, REACTIONS !

Uruguay Forest businesses have planted only in areas suitable for forestry, as marking the law, but also fertile land for agricultural production.

engineer According complaint Durán del Campo, the best agricultural and livestock fields Uruguayan has been earmarked for afforestation, pushing the productive sector debacle far more robust exporting country and, consequently, increasing unemployment and rural depopulation.
The nurse also accuses the political system lead to deception, as the promotion of forestry model aims hide it generates, in addition to pollution , unemployment and poverty.
Field To have to choose "between the delivery of the national heritage and dignity."

Those of us some gray and have supported some dry in Uruguay, we know the equipment equilibrium of sandy soil and basalt, two soils with different features well defined. The surface basalt, rich in minerals, town fine pasture, when it rains even becomes one of the best soils of Uruguay. His problem is lack of water, surface fields feel the rigor of drought like no other.

The sand, however, coarser pastures producer, has featured a large winter deficit, a product of bad management (continuous grazing) but has a condition that makes it unique in regions such as this, where drought is a permanent scourge to livestock production.

are the fields that according to its structure more enduring dry. The Uruguayan soil composition gave a great balance to livestock. The basalt of Artigas, Salto, Paysandu, Durazno, was very close to the sandy fields of Rivera, Tacuarembo, Paysandu and Durazno, where it was very easy to move the cattle when they came times of crisis. Upon regaining climatic cattle returned to their place of origin and the balance was restored minimizing losses.


Today, forestry point topped the sandy fields, the best in the country. In them, besides farming, you can make soy, rice, summer crops, potatoes, seed because they have a superb water reserve. Uruguay had 750,000 hectares of afforestation and is the only country that did environmental impact.

The foresters, or dull or lazy, the bank took a clean sweep, so nobody reforested forest, fields, best, most productive, sandy soils. They themselves say that eucalyptus grows in Uruguay ten times more than in Finland. What takes to grow a tree eight years, eighty years in Finland accurate.

But the reality today is that the country is threatened with losing 600,000 thousand cattle, apart from the low weight loss and pregnancy you will have to bear the first export item Uruguay . And oddly enough, this has not been quantified.
is not transitory, in contrast, is going to be something permanent. Because the basalt between rice that took the best land, the most profound, a wealth exceptional varietal, an enviable biodiversity, thanks to those two actions has left him almost naked.


And oddly enough it has not been quantified, there has been no impact study. This affects more than 3,000,000 hectares of productive country we said we were going to drive.
What we know is that this is not chance, is the result of a policy of exchange rate appreciation, the Uruguayan producers lost a thousand dollars per hectare, which
field value equal to more improvements and property.
The result is in sight: broken families, suicides, depopulation, etc.. That set the boom of afforestation, unpaid taxes, which was incredible incentives such as plantations, that if a year the producer had 80% of plants were pinned him back the money he had invested. Import vehicles without tax ...

a rancher could buy a 4X4 P and paid twice what they paid a forest producer. What response would have been the country if a rancher that (the State) will lend money to young cattle, 80% had farmed and his money back? Would certainly be record production figures, we increased our workforce, would be populated and depopulated not our fields as does forestry.

With the God market standard (is) called for the efficiency, the best, most effective were those that succeed in this globalized world, subsidies were dirty word. In underdeveloped countries, taxes had to be hands off of the production systems. Of course, that was for livestock farming: For the forest, however: the red carpet.

Most of these foreign companies came to help us with their investments, marched to the B criollitos accused of reactionary landlords and operators.

result of this policy, today there are virtually no sandy fields intended for livestock. Islands are stuck in some facilities and these will be captured by plantation companies that give them (eucalyptus seedlings) * producers and ensure you purchase.

The Uruguay has to get an emergency bill banning the afforestation of sandy areas. Today the mills are installed (pulp mills), Uruguay is the first that would be required to make an environmental impact study, it does not. The World Bank says it is incomplete and the Botnia and Ence are not acceptable to be an interested party.

addition, throughout the process () has shown that companies are not credible for a number of actions to discredit and call into question their actions. Logical they did not come to a charity, came to do business. And business is round: exceptional land, cheap labor, port, (not) pay taxes in the country of origin, especially with the creation of three hundred job titles.

Because after the (paper) pulp mill, the ish thousand workers employed in construction will be unemployed. And the 300 fixed will be replaced by robots. They said the workforce was to produce cutting eucalyptus and today we see it was replaced by the peelers who cut, stacked and loaded without the need for workers. Uruguayans may continue to believe in colored birds.

desperate political system has forgotten the most important thing a country is the dignity of its people to not be duped. You have to look forward: in fifty years when we have three million hectares of afforestation ruined by our children and grandchildren will have an impoverished country will be very hard on that for an economic mortgaged Uruguay.
Purification If Artigas had sold some of our heritage to survive and successive governments have done the same, we would not have country. Today you have to choose between delivery of the national heritage and dignity.

can not save a government that undertakes to save the national heritage. Uruguay: Argentina's right, we have violated a treaty, the only support of the smaller countries is right. Morning, the Argentines decided to put a sulfuric acid plant Charity Island and we will have to migrate from Paysandu. We have defended the treaty, if installed plants lose the river, future generations will be relentless with the Uruguayan political system. The Argentines are right, they do not have is authority. It is the most polluted in America, Mission to the population overwhelmed by its agrochemicals, four liters of glyphosate per hectare, a country ravaged by the expulsion of his country people.

bins (paper mills) and the our-of-the no one talks about the Black River and Juan Lacaze, pollute. But worse, the division, the damn division, tasteless jokes about the Argentine as a way to discredit and not to grab the bull by the Guampas and turn this debacle into a triumph of two fraternal peoples.

'll send this publication to: The Daily Telegraph, The Observer, El País, La República, Brecha, weekly Search and Three Points. Subsequently, another publication will confront our views with the Minister of Environment, architect Mariano Arana. In politics you always have to choose, vote to Tabaré, but today, between continuing to defend the government or Uruguay, we defend the country. Not a change, it means go on the line. Re nowhere near those responsible for this situation of chaos, whether they are traditional parties.
Today we change the song, Tabaré says "Celebrate Uruguayans," I say, react Uruguay.

The day after the victory, in an effort to defend the Uruguay, proposed Agricultural Development Plan, we worked hard on this, we were delayed. Today, with 500 million dollars, we begun the changes. With that money borrowing (the government) went to change debt. We must, we are dependent.
