State lands recovered in Tucumán and this was the operation
The operation was led by Deputy Prosecutor Raúl Ferrazzano, with the participation of the director of the Environmental Protection Unit, Hugo Vitale, the communal commissioner Oscar Vega, officials from the Cultural Entity, the Cadastre Directorate, and officers from the Tucumán Police.
Ferrazzano highlighted that Governor Osvaldo Jaldo has promoted an active policy to put an end to land usurpation in the province, recovering hundreds of hectares and preserving both the state’s heritage and the environment.
Governor Jaldo stated that his administration seeks to restore order in Tucumán, “guaranteeing security, social peace, and respect for private property and provincial heritage.”
Furthermore, he emphasized that measures will be taken in all areas of the province to combat illegal occupations, indicating that only those with valid deeds will be able to prove property ownership.
Sugarcane and lemons were being cultivated illegally.
The importance of environmental preservation
The recovery of these lands not only represents progress in the protection of state heritage, but also contributes to environmental preservation.
It prevents unauthorized agricultural practices that can have negative impacts on local ecosystems.
This operation is part of a series of actions undertaken by the Tucumán Government to ensure the legal and sustainable use of the province’s natural and territorial resources.
