New Pepro and PEP operations are carried out to support orange producers in RS

The National Supply Company (Conab) continues to support orange producers in Rio Grande do Sul. To this end, it will hold two more subsidy auctions. The operations are for the Equalizing Premium Paid to Rural Producers (Pepro) and the Premium for Product Outflow (PEP). While in Pepro, the auction bidder must be the producer himself or his cooperative, in PEP it allows processors and agribusinesses to purchase the product directly from the rural producer.

The subsidies offered provide for the flow of 10 thousand tons of orange in natura, from the 2019/2020 harvest. They will be carried out on October 24th, through Conab's Electronic Marketing System. Those interested in participating must be registered on commodity exchanges and be in good standing with the Unified Supplier Registration System (Sicaf), the Conab Defaulter Registration and Control System (Sircoi) and others.

Result

The auctions held this Thursday (17) offered subsidies for the disposal of 20 thousand tons of oranges. There was commercialization only for Pepro, relating to the removal of 500 tons of oranges.
