00:10because you will see something very different, with a spectacular cattle, with everything that has been exhibited here, it is of the highest quality, because that is how we have prepared it.
00:22Minister, and from your experience as a cattle farmer, would you suppose major inconveniences, what is now called porcine fever, where in Dajabón there is already a case, many pigs have died, there are worried producers.
00:33Yes, there have been outbreaks, but they are outbreaks of backyard farms, they are small farms that do not have any type of biosecurity, they do not follow the protocol that must be followed to raise in these times,
00:48but not only pigs, any product, even agricultural products, if you do not follow the proper process, you are going to have problems, because the world is full of plague.
00:58Look at the United States, the United States, with what you buy, three eggs there, you buy a carton of 30 eggs here, because there is a problem there too.
