The general secretary of agrarian organization ASAJA Murcia, Alfonso Gálvez Caravaca, has not hesitated to describe as "untenable" situation that has been suffering in recent times the regional agricultural sector and has been greatly exacerbated by a "disproportionate tax burden" .

"

Modulation on the vegetables and tomatoes, in the view of Gálvez Caravaca, a clear example of the "tax burden with the central executive load a sector as battered as is agriculture."

In this sense, the leader of Murcia Asaja notes that the Ministry of Economy and Finance intends to publish, before 1 December, an order which will reflect the performance indices of production of objective assessment scheme for modular 2009, and some changes will also affect certain productions of 2008.

In the case of vegetables and tomato, this modulation will be in the 0.26, representing an increase of over 50% compared to that applied in 2000-2006.

Thus, compared to existing modulation of 0.17 between 2000 and 2006, in 2007 the Government increased to 0.37 and now poses place it in a final in 0.26, which is a "outrageous" that the sector can not cope, says Galvez Caravaca.
