Union Ganadera Regional de Sinaloa (UGRS)
The Union Ganadera Regional de Sinaloa (UGRS) is a significant entity representing the interests of dairy producers in the Sinaloa region. The organization is instrumental in advocating for the rights and welfare of local dairy farmers, ensuring that their voices are heard at both regional and national levels.
Advocacy for Improved Pricing Schemes
UGRS has been vigorously promoting the need for Liconsa, a major player in the dairy industry, to not only increase its purchasing capacity but also to implement a differentiated pricing scheme based on regional factors. This initiative is aimed at ensuring that dairy producers receive fair compensation that reflects the actual production costs and the prevailing market conditions in their respective regions.
Engagement with Government Bodies
The organization has been actively engaging with key government bodies, including the SecretarÃa de Agricultura and the Presidency of Mexico. UGRS is advocating for structural solutions to promote and protect national dairy production. These efforts are crucial to ensuring the sustainability and growth of the dairy sector in Sinaloa and across the nation.
Concerns Over Milk Imitation Products
UGRS has raised significant concerns regarding the increasing presence of milk imitation products in Sinaloa. These products, which mimic milk but lack essential nutritional properties, pose a threat to local producers' economies and consumer health. UGRS is calling for stringent enforcement of labeling standards to safeguard genuine milk producers and ensure consumer awareness and safety.
