The President pointed out that the production will be for export and the domestic market.
"Let them come to produce 100,000, 200,000, 300,000 hectares and a good part of that production will go to their countries, and another part of the production for the national market, win-win, we are ready for that", he commented.
He also said that his country has 30 million hectares ready to produce.
In this sense, Maduro approved the creation of the National Land Commission (CNT). This consultative and participatory body will seek to deepen the policy of regularizing land tenure with agricultural vocation.
He also emphasized that his country's economy is being maintained with its own effort and that proof of this is the growth recorded in the first semester of 2022.
Maduro reiterated that more than 500 sanctions had affected Venezuela's economy.
