Cuba Implements Priority Programme To Produce Bio-products

HAVANA, April 13 (BERNAMA-NNN- Prensa Latina) -- Cuba has implemented a
priority programme to produce bio-products, which also includes the
construction of three plants, each with a capacity production of 1,000
tons in solid form and 600,000 liters.

According to experts from the Agriculture Ministry, given the harmful
effects on the land and human health of using excessive pesticides and
chemical fertilizers, the world has an obligation to replace those
products with another biological and environment-friendly products; and
Cuba is trying to do so.

Agriculture Minister Gustavo Rodriguez, said the first plant was being
built close to the headquarters of Labiofam pharmaceutical company, in
the municipality of Boyeros, in Havana.

He added that the other two plants are under construction in the central
and eastern region of the country.

The three plants will produce bio-pesticides, bio-fertilizers and
bio-stimulants that are intended to meet domestic needs and for export.

These facilities are similar to those built by Cuba in Tanzania and
Ecuador, Rodriguez said during a ceremony held at the National Institute
of Plant Health.
