Despite the fact that farmers from 16 communities have maintained a truce with Pemex, for more than a month, company officials have been delaying setting a payment date and settling their compensation payments for the 2023 and 2024 agricultural cycles.
Porfirio Javier Jiménez, from the Aquiles Serdán ejido, explained that after the meeting held at the La Ceiba junction with Pemex Southern Region officials on July 29, staff from Agua Dulce, Veracruz, asked for time to review the claims of nearly two thousand affected ejidatarios.
MAJOR DAMAGE
Although no official figure has been released, according to some residents, damage to homes, crops, livestock pastures, schools, and roads due to pollution, runoff, and spills amounts to more than 20 million pesos.
They warned that if payments are not made, roads will be closed.
