Regional economic updates in Formosa and Salto

In Formosa, Argentina, the PAIPPA institute has distributed nearly 20 million pesos to approximately 25 goat-producing families from communities including Ingeniero Juárez, Divisadero, Pozo de Maza, and Los Chiriguanos. These payments stem from sales at local fairs and the Formosa Food Sovereignty Program, aimed at supporting local production and direct commercialization.

In Salto, Uruguay, authorities have announced subsidies of up to 40,000 dollars for producers affected by severe storms in July. Meanwhile, the industrial sector faces challenges as over 200 workers at Frigo Salto remain on unemployment insurance, prompting local officials to seek urgent solutions for plant reactivation. Additionally, the Plan Avanzar has facilitated the permanent relocation of 88 families from La Amarilla and La Esperanza.
