In his interview with The Guardian, Alberto Garzón limited himself to describing an indisputable certainty. “ Here we must differentiate between industrial livestock farming and extensive livestock farming. This is ecologically sustainable livestock farming that has a lot of weight in certain regions of Spain such as Asturias, part of Castilla y León, even Andalusia or Extremadura . But this is sustainable. The one that is not sustainable at any time is what they call macro farms... But, of course, they take a town in depopulated Spain, put head of cattle there, or or , they contaminate the soil, they contaminate the water and then It is usually exported. It is poorer quality meat, it is animal abuse and it has a huge and disproportionate ecological impact. Theoretically, extensive livestock farmers should agree with us because we have never said that we should not eat meat, but rather that consumption should be reduced and that the meat consumed should be like this.
At no time did he criticize livestock farming as a whole, on the contrary, he praised the extensive farming. And he stated something obvious: that the products of industrial livestock farming are worse than those of extensive farming, something indisputable. Garzón neither criticized livestock farming in general nor stated that the industrial products were unhealthy, he Malta Phone Number simply said that they were worse than those of traditional extensive livestock farming. Subsequently, the political and media right, with its sights set on the elections in Catilla and León, launched the endlessly repeated hoax that the Minister of Consumer Affairs had attacked and despised Spanish livestock farming and disqualified exported meat. A falsehood like the one we are accustomed to by the “Trumpist” actions of the Spanish right and its media spokespersons, who are many and influential. All this promoted by the powerful “lobby” of the meat industry. But that has not been the worst but that this crude lie has been quickly supported by the traditional "miseros" of the PSOE, the barons always critical of "Sanchism", Lambán and Page and their ministers in the Government: the Minister of Education, Pilar Alegría (Aragón) and Territorial Policy, Isabel Rodríguez (Castilla la Mancha.
All of whom, with their criticism and the request of some of them for the immediate dismissal of Garzón, gave coverage to the position raised by the ultramontane right. The subsequent demonstrations by the socialist wing of the government including its President, all of them at least moderately critical of Garzón, have led to the inconsistency of the Government's positions disqualifying its own policies. This is not new; on many occasions, when faced with false proclamations from the right, socialists shrink and take defensive positions instead of launching an offensive in favor of their actions. Because the reality is that the statements of the Minister of Consumer Affairs, which in the worst case can be considered inappropriate for the moment in which they are published, do nothing more than give voice to a reality that is reflected not only in Government documents and of the European Union itself but are also scientifically endorsed and have the support of a good part of the agricultural and livestock sector of our country. The Government's Spanish Circular Economy Strategy (EEEC) until mentions: " In the field of livestock farming, extensive production systems (1) should be promoted to take advantage of ecosystem resources, with native breeds that are better adapted to the territory, and make more efficient use of resources.
