Sixty-four producers in Veroes, Yaracuy, have integrated their lands into the Plan Agroalimentario Comunal to prepare 100 hectares for sovereign seed sugar cane cultivation. Spearheaded by regional authorities and technical institutes like the INIA, the initiative utilizes rigorous soil analysis to optimize fertilization and mechanization ahead of a 2027 scaling phase.

Agronomic Mechanics and Phytosanitary Controls
The agricultural rollout across the Yaracuy state involves a coordinated deployment of thirty technical specialists, according to reporting from azucardigital.com. Diana Hernández, the Secretary of Economic Development of the state, detailed that the initiative operates through the Ministry of the Power People for Communes and local municipal structures. The operational framework relies on a multi-institutional coalition including the Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Agrícolas (INIA), the Instituto Nacional de Salud Agrícola Integral (INSAI), and the Venezuelan Sugar Corporation (Corporación Venezolana de Azúcar).
The geographical distribution of this initial phase breaks down across four specific administrative communes within the Veroes municipality. According to promar.tv, the plot allocation comprises 10 hectares in the Cañizo Palo Quemado Comuna, 20 hectares in the Ezequiel Zamora Comuna, 20 hectares in the Pueblo Unido Simón Bolívar Comuna, and 50 hectares in the José Joaquín Veroes Comuna. These initial 100 hectares are explicitly designated for cultivating sovereign seed material.
| Commune Name | Allocated Land Area | Primary Operational Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Cañizo Palo Quemado | 10 Hectares | Initial soil sampling and seed cultivation |
| Ezequiel Zamora | 20 Hectares | Phytosanitary evaluation and mechanization |
| Pueblo Unido Simón Bolívar | 20 Hectares | Edaphological mapping and fertilizer optimization |
| José Joaquín Veroes | 50 Hectares | Large-scale seed nursery development |
Scaling Projections and Regional Infrastructure
The strategic objective of these initial 100 hectares extends far beyond immediate planting cycles. Harvested seed material from this phase will serve as the biological foundation to scale production significantly. According to promar.tv, the project aims to expand to 1,000 hectares by April 2027, with the resulting harvest feeding directly into regional sugar processing mills (centrales azucareros).
Furthermore, technical inspection commissions have evaluated auxiliary seed nurseries within Veroes and the Palmasola municipality in the neighboring Falcón state. These nurseries hold official validation from the INIA for distribution in standardized packs of 30 seeds, aligned with the operational schedules of local Communal Assemblies. Funding and financial backing for this renaissance of regional cane cultivation were established during ministerial visits to the jurisdiction, integrating agrarian credit mechanisms with technical oversight.
