FPA delivers the Safra Plan proposal to the government and defends changes in the agricultural financing model

The Parliamentary Front for Agriculture (FPA) officially delivered, this Tuesday (29), to the Minister of Agriculture, Carlos Fávaro, the sector's proposal for the next 2025/2026 Harvest Plan. The document was personally passed on by federal deputy Alceu Moreira (MDB-RS), institutional coordinator of the FPA, and brings together contributions from the 59 entities that make up the Instituto Pensar Agro (IPA).

According to the parliamentarian, the main objective is to guarantee security and predictability for rural producers, especially in a scenario of climate and economic instability. “Those who are in the field need to know what is going to happen in order to make decisions with confidence. This proposal is solid, built on real data and the reality of the sector,” said Moreira.

For the next harvest, the estimate is that the credit needed for agriculture will reach R$1.3 trillion, of which R$599 billion will come from the Safra Plan, considered one of the main instruments to support the production sector. According to the caucus, the current financing model is outdated and requires changes. “We are delivering a plan that represents a consensus among the entities in the sector. We want to simplify processes and eliminate unnecessary bureaucracy,” reinforced the deputy.

Rural Insurance

The main points of the document include the allocation of R$1.5 billion to equalize interest rates and the application of at least R$1.1 billion of the total value of the plan, approximately R$1.5 billion, to subsidize rural insurance. The measure guarantees predictability for producers and avoids credit interruptions, such as the one that occurred in February of this year, and the regulation of a Catastrophe Fund, which offers support to producers in the face of extreme weather events, such as those that recently affected Rio Grande do Sul and the Central-West.

Another highlight of the proposal is the creation of a multi-year agricultural policy, inspired by the United States Farm Bill, to guarantee budgetary predictability and stability to the sector – over a five-year period.
