There will be nothing more from the Yanq on the subject of the strike in the campo. I am only a partner in all the cows we have. I cannot afford to bring a spotlight on myself and harm the rest of my family.
Today's print and web edition of La Nacion reports that 50 members of the Argentina's Federal Police forcibly seized five truckloads of cattle from the ranch of a strike supporter near the town of Brandsen, southeast of the provincial capital of Buenos Aires, La Plata.
The story has not appeared in any other media outlets.
"The government began to apply yesterday The Law of Supply. According to sources from La Nacion, Juan Eiras, President of the Argentine Chamber of Feedlot Operators (Caehv), was forced to give into pressure from the Secretary of Domestic Commerce, Guillermo Moreno, who made good on his threat to send the Policia Federal to assure the delivery to market of the cattle that he finishes (fattens) in his establishment."
The paper said that the confiscation occurred after threatening phone calls from the ministry.
A cattle truck can hold an average of 35 animals each. Furthermore, many ranchers send their cattle to feedlots for final fattening. Mr. Eiras said that he did not know all the owners of the cattle confiscated from him.
The law is not required to compensate the owner.
Please, do not leave any further comments regarding the rural strike on this website.
