Cuban Vice President Jose Ramon Machado Ventura during the sessions of the National Association of Small Farmers (ANAP) of the provinces of Matanzas, Ciego de Avila and Sancti Spiritus on Sunday announced that the country invests more than $1.5 Billion dollars annually buying food, part of which can be substituted by national products if the areas of cultivation and the yields increase.
Also in attendance were Cuban Minister of Agriculture, Ulises Rosales del Toro, and ANAP President Orlando Lugo Fonte addressing key elements on the development of Cuban agriculture.
