In Guantánamo, specifically in the municipality of Maisí, a farmer raises bees to face the lack of sugar, another of the products that is scarce on the Island, the former power of this industry.
The official press, clearly, cataloged this story as “an example that in any little piece of land you can achieve productions to contribute to the family economy.” This was stated, for example, in a report from the telecentre Solvision.
The Cuban woman also grows beans, corn and cane. And about this “alternative” he explained to the media that it started with only three bees “that they gave me, and look how many I have, because of the sugar mess. “I don’t have to buy sugar anymore, I have to make things for my children.”
More and more Cubans must look for options to face the crisis with food. Meanwhile, the government meets periodically to point out the difficulties with the supply of regulated sugar to the population, as a consequence of the deficiencies in the development of the current harvest, but it still does not offer immediate solutions.
Low industrial and sugarcane yields, as well as impacts due to a fuel deficit plus organizational difficulties, are affecting the race, according to the Minister of Economy and Planning himself, Joaquín Alonso Vázquez.
In fact, Guantánamo is one of the Cuban provinces with the most difficulties in completing this product in the basic basket. The residents of that territory have reported through various channels this situation of uncertainty as to whether this product will reach their regulated quota each month.
