Inc.\u201d which is partner in our sharecropping program.<\/p>\n<p>A complaint by a group of citizens derivate into legal lawsuit which caused the closing of the farm named above for nine months. On January 9th, 2023 a judge at the Tribunal Colegiado en materias Penal y Administrativa del Decimocuarto circuito located in M\u00e9rida rejected this complaint, allowing the pig farm to resume operations with the full right of the law.<\/p>\n<p>After that veredict, a group of unsatisfied citizens from Sitilpech committed several illegal\u00a0acts, such as blocking access to the farm, placing employees in danger and limiting their\u00a0right to work, as well as blocking roadways that lead to surrounding towns and cities, thus\u00a0violating the right of way for the people of Yucat\u00e1n.<\/p>\n<p>This situation has been identified by a full of misunderstanding and lack of information about\u00a0the working conditions of a technologically-minded, well-organized, and sustainable Pig\u00a0Farm. These facts have created a negative campaign against the the company, involving our\u00a0brand as a result, into the radically-minded position toward the livestock industry.<\/p>\n<p>Repeated pleas for dialogue and the respect of peace and order made by the Kancabch\u00e9n II farm and the Asociaci\u00f3n Ganadera Local de Porcicultores de M\u00e9rida A.C. in printed media have been ignored by the activists. In addition this group didn\u2019t attend a Conciliation forums with different levels of government offices including the Comisi\u00f3n de Derechos Humanos del estado de Yucat\u00e1n (CODHEY), where industry representatives were also present.<\/p>\n<p>Kek\u00e9n will always honor freedom of speech, the plurality of thought, and peacefulness.
