Bolivia raises diesel quota for small farmers to end blockades
ExpresoLO·BO·about 10 hours ago
The president of Fexpocruz and CAO (Cámara Agropecuaria del Oriente) publicly rejected the government's 2,500-liter diesel quota as insufficient, demanding elimination of the dual pricing system and greater transparency in the fuel commercialization chain. This marks an escalation in sector pressure on Bolivia's fuel subsidy policy, which has strained fiscal resources and caused supply shortages. The outcome could affect agricultural production costs and export competitiveness.
