Ministries of Agricultural Development and Environment will face clashes with ruralists in the plenary to keep the lead of the newly acquired areas, which were with the Agriculture portfolio
BRASÍLIA – The government of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is preparing to face a trial by fire in the National Congress with the ruralist caucus, which brings together about 300 parliamentarians and has a majority position against the PT administration. The clashes directly involve the Ministry of Agricultural Development (MDA) and the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change (MMA).
The two folders reacted to the statements by the new president of the Agricultural Parliamentary Front (FPA), deputy Pedro Lupion (PP-PR)in an interview with Stadium. Lupion, who assumed command of the front on Wednesday 1, said that the bench will go to the plenary in the Chamber to overturn three of Lula’s acts.
The ruralists are asking for the return of the National Rural Environmental Registration System (CAR) to the Ministry of Agriculture. This register, which centralizes land regularization actions, was transferred to the Ministry of the Environment.
Two other priorities are the recovery of two bodies that the Ministry of Agriculture has transferred to the new Ministry of Agricultural Development and Family Agriculture: the National Supply Company (Conab) and the National Institute of Colonization and Agrarian Reform (Incra ).
Because these changes were made through an interim provision (MP), they began to take effect immediately, but now depend on Congressional approval to become law. As a rule, PMs are valid for up to 120 days. Lupion said he already has the amendments (texts) ready to undo the changes made by Lula. He said Lula’s ministries “are partisan, ideologically, instead of having a technical position.” “If it’s about really radicalizing, we also know how to radicalize,” he said.
Reaction
The Minister of Agricultural Development, Paulo Teixeira, who is a re-elected PT deputy from São Paulo, reacted to the statements. “The MDA is very much in tune with the Ministry of Agriculture, under the leadership of President Lula. Without dialogue, he (Peter Lupio) Do you already do these attacks? Yes, it is ideologized,” he told al Stadium.
Paulo Teixeira said that he has already mobilized to request a meeting with the FPA board in the coming days and that all the changes made have had the direct participation of the Minister of Agriculture, Carlos Fávaro, who is well evaluated by the members of the FPA itself.
“We are planning to schedule a meeting with the FPA soon. The government is cohesive and calm with respect to the changes it has made. Everything has been done with the approval of Minister Fávaro himself.” When contacted, Minister Carlos Fávaro did not return until this text was published.
The MMA, Marina Silva’s ministry, said in a statement that the Rural Environmental Registry “is an environmental management tool that has always been linked to the Ministry of the Environment, with the exception of the Bolsonaro period”, which transferred to the Ministry of Environment Agriculture Portfolio. .
“CAR’s return to the MMA, where it should never have started, reflects the Lula government’s commitment to put things back in their place, reinforcing the institutional nature of environmental policies”, reads the text.
