The Commission on Human Rights and Participatory Legislation held a meeting to discuss the crisis in the family milk production sector in the Southern Region of Brazil. Tens of thousands of small producers have already left due to the inability to compete with the importation of milk from neighboring countries within Mercosur. The government has implemented measures such as increasing import tariffs and allocating funds for the purchase of local production, but the producers argue that fair prices and the reduction of taxes are necessary for a long-term solution.
