Kim Kataguiri: It is important for us to have that technical opinion.
Kim Kataguiri: Now, that opinion does not have legal power, it should not and never did — it only started to have it now, with the Lula Government — to be used by Ibama to prohibit cultivation, to prohibit processing, to prohibit the breeding of species that only generate employment and income for our country, including the case I already mentioned of tambaqui, which is Brazilian and for which a restriction is being discussed to breed it in Brazil, and a restriction on tilapia reproduction, which affects mainly small producers.
So, Mr. President, this is an absolutely reasonable bill.
Kim Kataguiri: I find it regrettable that the Lula Government is opposed to this matter.
Kim Kataguiri: I think it's a setback for Brazilian producers, a setback for the country's development that, in one of the few areas where we have significant productivity growth in Brazil, of about 2.5% per year on average, which is agribusiness, we put the shackles on ourselves — we sabotage ourselves, we don't even need our external adversaries for that.
