However – asked about the opposition he faces from agribusiness – Lula said that the most conservative businesspeople in the sector oppose his candidacy because of environmental policy.

“Our fight against deforestation makes them against us.”

Renata Vasconcellos wanted to clarify whether Lula was saying that agribusiness opposes a sustainable environment and the candidate replied “fascist and right-wing agribusiness does”.

For Lula, it is the most reactionary segment of agribusiness that would be advancing on protected areas and destroying Brazilian biomes, but that serious businesspeople in the sector – who export part of their production – do not want to deforest.

The PT member stated that he was against the planting of soybeans and corn and the production of cattle in the Amazon and said that the region needs to be scientifically explored due to its biodiversity.

On the networks, the PT member's statement resonated and stirred emotions, which resulted in that everyday Fla-Flu.
