Janaina Riva pledges to prioritize family farming in Senate bid
Janaina Riva, a candidate for the Senate, has pledged to prioritize family farming as part of her platform. During a meeting with producer associations in Cuiabá, Riva emphasized the need for increased investment in small rural properties to improve family income and encourage younger generations to remain in the agricultural sector.
Key priorities identified include access to technology, innovation, and better equipment for cooperatives and small farms. Riva also highlighted the critical need for improved infrastructure and logistics, noting that poor road conditions currently prevent small producers from effectively transporting goods to market and accessing school feeding programs.
