It is destined for agricultural sector 0.56% of the GDP: OCED

México. -   Mexico. -   According to data of the Organization for the Cooperation and the Economic Development (OCED), the economic supports total that are destined for agricultural sector of our country equal to 0.56 percent of the GDP, in contrast with 0.7 and 0.9 percent that is destined in developed nations of the referred organization.  Respect of the call agricultural GDP, the supports intended for the peasants or producing in Mexico equal to the 9.2 percent, almost half of the 18.9 percent applied in the European Union. The figures constitute a clear indicator of the unjust and inequitable terms in which it has been incrusted to the national economy in the global arrangement, particularly in what is relative with the agricultural and food policy. Even in the context of an organization as the OCED, whose ideation neoliberal praises the opening indiscriminate of frontiers to the food products and the subsidies discouragement or any other " policy distortion instrument of the market", manifesto remain that the developed countries average destines a greater percentage that our country of their wealth to support to their primary sector. What appears behind this apparent incongruity on the Mexican agricultural field is a cold calculation to finish this primary sector in Mexico and that has this sector to the rich countries, but that unfortunately for the Mexican political class, it does not has echo the hunger and the misery for the Mexican authorities. It is indicated that in the pasts 30 years the global amount of the governmental supports intended for the agricultural producers were reduced to half, to the degree in fact that represent alone 17 percent of the gross agricultural revenue. The supports to the peasants and producing equal in Mexico to 9.2 percent of the agricultural GDP, almost half of the 18.9 percent applied in the countries of the European and similar Union to the 9.4 percent corresponding to The States, while in China arrives to 21.3 percent. The OECD is congratulates in fact that all the countries that integrate it, between them Mexico, they have "advanced in gradual form to be separated of policy instruments possibly distortions thing, as the support to the prices and the subsidies in input, for the sake of political that  they do not  influence  directly  the decisions of the agricultural production". Critical that some emerging economies are moved in direction contradicts to increase the use of policies of support linked with the prices and the production. "In the studied countries, 68 percent of the support to the farmers was provided in the form of support to the market prices, payments based on the production or the use of input without limitations, something which distorts the production decisions and also markets and in a way considerable trade". Mexico falling behind in support to the agricultural sector In this blindness context, this lack of support more than a rebels to the precepts of the Consensus of Washington and of the OCED, it is an agreement between the respective governments to finish with this sector in the smaller possible time, consequently to compel to the miserable Mexican peasants to compete in clear inequity conditions with imported products, whose low prices are supported in good measure, by governmental subsidies.  For poor and dependent nations as our, this stage has implicating a gradual loss of sovereignty and a growing dependency, in contrast than what is produced in country third parties. All of the above is translated in a setback of the national sovereignty and puts to the nations before the risk from suffering severe shortages, and in last resort, famines. From the company of the North American Free Trade Agreement of North America (NAFTA), and with special emphasis on account of the entry into force of the clause of that instrument trilateral that releases of all limitation the grains trade, it has been insisted on the goad you need of strengthening the national production, and of protecting it of cheap imports that even though tend to stop the short term prices, in the long run result disastrous for the popular supply. However, it exists contrast because in the emerging economies the supports to the primary sector rose until be approximated to the average of the countries of the OCED in contrast with the very low levels or even negative that were registering before. Put to Mexico near countries as The States, Australia, South Africa, Chile, Brazil, Colombia, Israel, Kazajstan, Ukraine, New Zealand and Vietnam, that have "levels of inferior support and in some instances smaller to the average of the OCED". In the other extreme, the highest levels of support to the sector are reported in Iceland, Japan, Korea of the South, Norway and Swiss, while the nations that certify the European Union, as well as the Russian Federation and Turkey, share the average of the OCED, and China what is super slightly. "By and large, 50 countries included in the report of this year provided an annual average of 585 billion of dollars of support to their farmers in the period 2013-2015 and other 87 billion of dollars for the general services that support to the sector". instead of subsidies in input and supports in prices of granted agricultural products directly to the peasants, that for the referred organization result " policy instruments distortions thing of the market", the governments have opted by impelling innovation systems To promote the productivity and sustainability in the primary sector, as well as to accomplish investments in education and infrastructure, but that has occurred in different degrees in each country.  The subsidy and the essential cultivation protectionism can seem obsolete and opposite instruments to the logic of the fiscal discipline; have in order to accounts, the sense of assuring the basic nourishment of the population and of preserving it before the fluctuations of the world markets. This Mexican government, far from to present as solution the measures that other governments have implemented relying on the few report of the citizen, and that they have carried to the ruin to the Mexican field, what is necessary and sufficient is to give a change total in the agricultural and economic policies that from the foreign the foreign governments have taken to Mexico as their experimental field to test all kinds of infamies and adventures, so that the beneficiaries of these transnational experiments will be a handful of entrepreneurs, speculators and a reduced agro-industrial sector. It is recalled that the economic supports that receives the agricultural sector in Mexico equal to only 0.56 percent of the general GDP in contrast with 0.70 percent and 0.90 percent that destine for same item developed countries that also belong to the OCED, or with 3, 25 percent that applies China, indicates a report of the organization on 50 countries that general the lion's share of the agricultural production of the world and between these are counted associated and emerging countries.  Tailor booth Hundreds of personalities and academic organizations, ecclesial, popular, student, of human rights and social of different parts of the world expressed their rejection to the campaign of it discredit and "the brutal repression that from the federal government is being applying against the teachers of Mexico". In a pronouncement, demanded that cease the repression against the magisterial movement and is established at once  the dialogue between the representative and federal government of the National Workers Coordinator of  the  Education  (CNTE, for their initials in Spanish), branch of the SNTE. "We think that the authorities should of betting to the dialogue, recognizing just occupational demands of the magisterial movement, and not to the force to solve this and any other conflict, above all in a country labeled by the violence and the impunity".
