The Minister of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (MPLS), Blairo Maggi, said on Tuesday (28), in São Paulo (SP), that the portfolio will await the decision of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) on the price list minimum for freight by road.
On Monday (27), the Minister of the STF, Luiz Fux, said after a public hearing that he will bring the matter to the Plenary of the Court, but without specifying a date.
According to Maggi, what the MPLS accepts is that there is a minimum price list for road freight, as it is for some agricultural products. However, in our assessment, the minister said, the problem is that the current table presents values that establish guaranteed profit for the freelancer, not a minimum price for the service.
