As of March 1, the Ministry of Livestock, Agriculture and Fisheries will be headed by a leader who is directly trusted by José Mujica. He is the veterinarian Alfredo Fratti, who was confirmed this week by Yamandú Orsi. When we interviewed Mujica here, En Perspectiva, at the beginning of December, he said that Fratti's appointment had been the only one he had recommended to Orsi in the meeting they had the day after the runoff. "I have known him for years because he is a veterinarian, because he has worked with cattle, because he was vice president of the Rural Federation, because he knows all the rural unions, because he is a country man." In addition to his activity as a livestock producer, Fratti was a deputy for his department, Cerro Largo, between 2005 and 2010 and then president of INAC during the Mujica government (2010-2015). In this period that ends, he became a deputy again and in 2021 he presided over the Chamber of Representatives. And in the October elections he was elected senator of the republic. We received him here, En Perspectiva, to learn more about his career and his profile and, also, some of his priorities in the portfolio that he is in charge of.
