Guantanamo.- Attention to young peasants is becoming a strategic issue in the current context, according to Maité Indira Goulbourne Tito, member of the Provincial Bureau of the UJC in Guantánamo, who highlights the role played by this force that boosts food production, the economic and social development of the province.
She highlights that currently more than 1,600 young people are joining forces to support the development of agriculture production cooperatives and credit and service cooperatives, in which they strive to increase yields and product marketing.
The UJC leader points out that youth peasant activities carried out this year as spaces to share experiences and concerns and reflect on the contribution in this decisive front of the economic battle.
Maité Indira Goulbourne Tito, member of the Provincial Bureau of the UJC, says that the exchange beyond these scenarios involves the action of the 250 Peasant Youth Brigades, in which the process of banking, the delays in the delivery of inputs and the confrontation of illegalities are also valued.
At the same time, she explains the action of the 51 Youth Technical Brigades existing in the peasant sector of Guantanamo with more than 400 members, committed to generalizing the results of science in tune with the government’s call to enhance agricultural yields.

As for the attention to the peasant sector, the UJC focuses on the operation of the 80 grass-root committees, their influence on the youth universe and the attention to children and adolescents living in rural areas to avoid the exodus.
