Rice and peas: the most backward

In Camagüey, the delivery of rice corresponding to the ration book is still experiencing significant delays. So far, only two pounds of free rice for the month of March have been distributed in areas such as Carretera Vertientes and Cabeza Vaca. The remaining distributions for March and April are still pending, with a cumulative undelivered amount of 2 pounds per person.

Regarding peas, a key ingredient in the regulated diet, the distribution corresponds to two cumulative months. Some areas such as Centro, América Latina, Esperanza, Jayamá, and Mella have already received their entire supply. Today, they are being distributed in the following neighborhoods: Lenin, Puerto Príncipe, Garrido Caridad, San Juan de Dios, Previsora, and Vista Hermosa.

Coffee and salt: uneven progress

The distribution of April's coffee has been completed in several neighborhoods: Belén, Modelo Imán, Previsora, Agramonte, Edén Juruquey, Vista Hermosa, Centro, Campana, América Latina, and Garrido Caridad. Today, distribution is taking place in Florat.

  1. one thing that worries mecupFor me, it's quite a lot because salt is priced too high here at the modern parceling winery in Arroyo Naranjo. They're charging it at $70 a pound. Am I mistaken, or is it a price change?
