The Municipal Socialist Group spokesman, Manuel Soler, began his appearance before the media saying that "the biggest disaster was brought to Lorca earthquake, followed by a crop year losses for most farmers."
Soler has been breaking down the following information "in the most important crops that are made in our municipality were lost, except for the artichoke, which in recent years have seen their production from the more than 6,000 hectares to be cultivated in all Murcia Region in the nineties to about 4,400 hectares last year. This slowdown in the plantations, has meant that this vegetable prices have been profitable for farmers in the product intended for fresh consumption. The current prices for the farmer are around € 0.50 / kilo, with a production cost of 0.38 € / kilo but will have to wait until early spring, the harvest dates of which goes almost entirely to the canning industry. Considering that most of the major canneries are gone, we could face falling prices on dates that are the major production of this crop. "
The social responsibility added that "broccoli is one of the most important crops, which is in the hands of family farms for the most part. From the start of the season, prices have been disastrous, with quotes from 0, 15 and 0.30 € / kilo at present, the price received by the farmer is around 0.20 € / kilo at a cost of production of 0.39 € / kilo, accumulating losses of between 0.15 to 0.20 € / kilo. "
"Lettuce is another major cultivation Guadalentín Valley area. It started the season with ruinous prices, having had to carve out a significant portion of the plantations. Has been able to market, has been with producer prices between 0.10 to 0.12 € / piece and at a cost of 0.18 € / piece, although in recent days the markets have reacted to rising at around the € 0.21 / piece. The reason for these prices as disastrous for the field comes from a very warm temperatures for the dates that we are, "he clarified.
Miras Soler said that "going to make a political analysis of the year that has elapsed since the Municipal Socialist Group have to recognize that it was a bad year for the PSOE. PP If you already ruled both the city and in the Community Autonomous Region, this year has reached the Government of Spain. This means that all management responsibility rests with the party itself. I hope the Mayor is so vindictive with the new government of the nation as it has been with the former to get aid for the victims of earthquakes. The municipal government chose the path of confrontation with the former Central Government and we believe that such claims may be more political advantage but not better results to get more money for Lorca. However, before Regional government is not demanding anything and we believe should have been planted to Valcárcel and to the Minister of Economy and Finance and not to tolerate a drop in the autonomous budget in 2012 of over 7.5 million euros in the territory of their budgets to Lorca destination, having gone for the rest of these municipalities Guadalentín Valley. We are concerned that does not appear anywhere in the autonomous budget for the rehabilitation and reconstruction of our city. The Government of the Region of Murcia says again and again but there is no money in the budget have been approved provided for a figure around 5,000 million euros and 206,000 euros are housing only. We wonder how it will fulfill its commitment to the Regional Government. "
Lorca The mayor has insisted that "another negative aspect to note is that having more than 7 months since the earthquake, Lorca seems a lawless city with parked vehicles obstructing the road traffic in the town, breaking what hinders them no part of the Local Government matching means to avoid it. "
Manuel Soler stressed that "2011 ends with an income between compensation and grants of 400 million euros. If the assessment made by the Local Government and autonomous" Plan Lorca "is from 1650 million euros, we find a balance negative 1,250 million euros. This is the figure that the municipal government has to get the rest of administrations. "
Lorca politician ended his speech by saying that "we close the year without municipal budget for 2012. We must remember that in recent years, the municipal accounts dragging a negative difference between expenditures and revenues approaching EUR 20 million . We hope the new government team reconduzca the situation and submit budgets for 2012 real and not fictitious, as it has done in recent years, including exercise after exercise some items on the income that they knew beforehand would not materialize, with observations against the municipal intervention.
