There is a lot of talent in our town. I am convinced that, together, we can get ahead by working. It is a strength that we were able to confirm during visits to the Yateras municipality, in the Guantánamo Province, and San Luis, in Santiago de Cuba.

In exchange with the workers, he called on them to recover the production of more than 600 thousand eggs that they previously produced since now they do not reach 50 percent of that record and it does not exceed the demand of the population, given the current challenges of achieving local self-sufficiency.
Eider Álvarez Ramírez, director of the Poultry Enterprise in the Guantánamo Province, explained that at this time they are increasing pork and aquaculture production and the planting of protein plants for the production of animal feed, essential as a complement for reproduction.
