Carriers and cargo givers advance meeting to unblock grain transport conflict

Carriers argue that the current rate does not reflect operating costs and also point to the lack of diesel and the sale at prices higher than the official ones and through quotas.

However, an internal one between the representatives of the transport sector also came to light, given that the Federation of Collectors accused the Federation of Transporters (FETRA) of maintaining an “intransigent” position.

“The Federation of Stockpilers makes it clear that at the meeting on April 13 the entity took a conciliatory position to solve the grain transport conflict,” the entity said in a press release.

He added that “it seems to be unknown that Of the four chambers of carriers, two presented their cost structures, with an increase of approximately 10% in the reference rates, due to the increase in diesel, rates that the cargo providers were willing to agree on to put an end to the conflict.“.

The two entities were CATAC -10% increase-, FADEAC -12%- and FAETYL accompanied the proposal of the previous ones”.

The collectors complained that “without showing any cost study, FETRA maintained an intransigent position demanding a 35% increase in the rate, thus breaking the agreement reached by the majorities.”

Likewise, he demanded that the Government “quickly comply with the word pledged at the meeting, where it guaranteed the normal supply of diesel throughout the national territory at the official prices expressed by the flag service stations.”
