President Maduro highlighted that the country has achieved a 98% supply rate in 2024 and so far in 2025, underscoring the need to maintain and increase productive efforts in the agricultural, livestock, and agroindustrial sectors. “These are good news, and the more we produce, the more stability and independence we will have,” he stated.

In another part of his address, the president mentioned the approval in the first discussion of the ALBA-TCP (Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America-Peoples’ Trade Agreement) Agricultural Cooperation Law by the National Assembly.

President Maduro urged the president of the parliament, Jorge Rodríguez, to expedite the legislative process, arguing that this law is crucial for attracting investments from more than 15 ALBA member countries and strengthening food production in Venezuela.

Additionally, he announced the organization of an Agricultural Fair in Nicaragua in March, where the progress of these agreements among member countries will be showcased. “We are going for a win-win situation; we are not going to produce weapons or nuclear bombs, we are going to produce food.

This is an alliance for life, peace, and economic independence; this is the way forward,” concluded President Maduro, reaffirming his optimistic vision for the agri-food future of Latin America and the Caribbean.
