Bolivian Presidential Candidates Outline Agricultural Policies at National Forum

La Paz, Bolivia – At the inaugural National Agro-Livestock Forum hosted by Red Uno, presidential candidates engaged in a direct question-and-answer session, outlining their positions on critical agricultural policies. The forum, titled "Decisions That Harvest the Future," saw candidates respond with 'yes' or 'no' signs to a series of closed questions. Candidates unanimously affirmed their recognition of agriculture as a principal driver of the national economy and pledged to prioritize it in their government plans. They also agreed to protect and strictly respect private urban and rural property throughout the national territory. Furthermore, all participating candidates committed to promoting the titling of productive lands for peasants, indigenous communities, and small producers within defined timelines. On the contentious issue of biotechnology, candidates indicated their support for authorizing the unrestricted use of biotechnology and transgenic events in Bolivian agriculture. They also agreed to eliminate state control over price bands and supply quotas for agricultural products. However, one candidate notably dissented on the proposal to remove fuels from the list of controlled substances, indicating a divergence in policy regarding state intervention in this sector. The forum provided a clear snapshot of the candidates' proposed approaches to key agricultural and economic challenges, offering the public direct insight into their future governance strategies.
