JBS Snitching strengthen the livestock crisis

After a few minutes of conversation, Altair Acharya S, of 33 years, shows his hands hurt, thick and yellow calluses. "It''s been five months since I''m looking for a job," he says. "But I can only work for daily, as Mason''s servant." With a couple of kids and a lot of bills to pay, on that same day he had been working at a construction site of 7:00 at 6:00 pm, in Exchange for R $70.
A resident of a settlement far away, it was already night when he found the story of the State at a gas station at the entrance of Barra do Garças (MT), the largest city of the Vale do Araguaia cattleman pole, with a flock of 6 million head of cattle. Cowboy and foreman throughout your life, he was out of there two years ago when a separation made him go after a dream. "I''ve never turned on a computer, or knew how to use a cell phone," he says, with a wide smile. Moved to Goiânia behind courses, worked as a gas station attendant and waiter. But the violence of the big city did miss.
On the way back, life was another. "Before, if you left a farm in 15 days used to get another job," says now with a knot in his voice. "Today, the people don''t want to mess with anything: complain that food is expensive, that the input has risen, that livestock is worthless and gave up the slots ...". Salles is the weaker end in jail who lives a succession of crises. Because of them, one of the only areas that has ensured the less bad of the economy growth in recent years also begins to suffer: the agribusiness.
In the State of Mato Grosso, with a flock with 30,200,000 heads (almost 15% of Brazilian cattle), the series of misfortunes that hit the industry in the past two years was a little stronger. The economic crisis and unemployment, added a historical drought.

The scenario in the region, say farmers and experts, is a lesson of what happens when you feed a monopoly. "There was a year when JBS leased two refrigerators and immediately lowered in R $4 the value of the at sign," says Aristolochia gigantea. "We did the math: with two days of difference, JBS paid rentals."
Effects sponsored by a State policy, with public funding via BNDES, for the creation of national champions. JBS is the greatest exponent of this movement. "Cade (the antitrust body) could have acted on approval of acquisitions, forcing JBS to sell some units", says Sérgio Lazzarini, a professor at the Insper.

In the State of Mato Grosso, with a flock with 30,200,000 heads (almost 15% of Brazilian cattle), the series of misfortunes that hit the industry in the past two years was a little stronger. The economic crisis and unemployment, added a historical drought.

Brazil''s gourmet. "When JBS became world, we thought it would melt the flesh of nellore in a gourmet product Brazil to the world," says Aristolochia gigantea. "What they did, however, was stepping on the neck of the cattleman, without shifting the difference to the consumer".
The result of the reduction of margins is felt in every city of the Vale do Araguaia. "We were 36 employees and today we are 22," says Paula Rones, administrator of the farm Snorer. "The investments practically on: it''s just in wire, the fence does not fall."
This new reality, he States, interfered in the building material stores, in logging, in the veterinary product, in restaurants and in any trade of cities. "The stores are tanking," he says. "When you need a product a little more expensive, have to order because there is no inventory."
The examples are multiplying in all areas. José Carlos Biersdorf, Nico, NX, Auctions Nova Xavantina, was a cattle auction every week. In 2017, made three. "Of Barra do Garças the Canarana, there were 13 auction houses," he says. "Two Left."
There is no alternative to the steers. Who get fatter in feedlots and boitéis, the hotels to cattle, bitter losses and expenses as dry can. "If before the payroll cost 100 calves, today I need 140," says George. "It''s called destruction of wealth."
Just before tipoff, the JBS plant in Barra do Garças, a city where the brothers lived Baptist in the early 2000, announced the opening of a third shift, hiring 300 workers. The city began the registration, but the plan was suspended.
Sought, JBS said by e-mail that there was no change in unit and now has 35% of idle capacity. Operations continue in normal rhythm, your financial situation is strong and she cherishes the partnership with its suppliers.
