3:16 pm
. the orange juice is a several $1000000000.00 industry. brazil is the world's largest citrus producer. here on almost 600000 hector's of land oranges are grown. some of them becoming germany's favorite jews. thousands make their living picking oranges. but there is much to criticize about their working conditions. you're under extreme pressure, an accident happens because they're concentrating on harvest and getting caraway. scott scott was here on top of the ladder. we have to have you back on your shoulders on excuse me, should treat us like human beings. he's not like live stuff. sure. and we depend on them, but they also depend on us. you see who else is going to pick the oranges? is there any truth to the these accusations we embark on
3:17 pm
a journey to brazil to investigate? how is the orange juice produced there? the 4 30 am the many orange pickers in the state of south palo are already on their feet. among them is a phone, so like any other day, he has 8 hours of work ahead of him. to this i also think, i think we need this canister was 5 liters of walter. no, that's not enough for a day's work. your son is too strong for me. i need 2 of these kind of stairs to get through the day. are you drinking 10 leaders a day? yes, exactly. the sun is very homes and temperatures on the plantations can reach up to
3:18 pm
35 degrees celsius directly under the sun. it feels even hotter for 6 years. alfonso has been picking oranges for the juice industry from monday to saturday, and a good month t urns about 250 ers. that is more than the brazilian minimum wage yet he barely manages to make ends meet for himself, his wife and their daughter. last one, just as you know, i honestly, i like the word so many don't think of i on but everyone here need some need. they have to work by many, also have families glenview you can get by with what you are, where there's nothing that i'll save is tyrese remote, even though it's hard. i want my doctor to have what i didn't have, no matter how hard it su with up. i am nancy in doing that a phone. so his wife also used to work as an orange picker. now he is the sole
3:19 pm
bread winner because i phone so we'd like to spare her the work in the fields past. and so for a manual, can i have a feel for it? the main on this, this is now sol, which i don't want her to suffer like i advise you, work in the sun rains. hold extreme heat. that is physically exhausting. a fag weighs 27 q lose. that's too much crossing. i mean, i don't mean for women in general, the other, for my wife from you, i don't want her to have to endure what i go through in the field. you go, boss, my awesome. ok to come up on what exactly do off on so and his colleagues experience in the field that we want to accompany them. but filming the pictures that work is not so easy as we're about to find out the will be that china, the village, where our phone, so lives is rather remote,
3:20 pm
just around 5000 people normally live here. but between may and december, that number can grow to 6000. this is because the region around will be that shot out, which is in the state of south palo is home to most of brazil's orange plantations . many are seasonal workers who come to the village from northeastern brazil, some 2000 kilometers a way where people have fewer opportunities to earn money and sell palo. they work for a few months each year before returning home after the harvest is finished, the to reach the plantations. a phone so has to travel by bus for 45 minutes. the ride is organized by the company, but the workers aren't compensated for this time. the
3:21 pm
we would like to accompany a phone so, but his employer won't give us permission. we ask on other plantations to, but do not get permission to shoot most claim. it's due to cobit 19 security measures, but our team has attracted attention in the area. it seems we are being watched the 2nd the have to buy something we were hoping to visit a phone, so in his family again in the afternoon. but that's not possible anymore. the plantation owner has informed the phone so that he has violated his contract to the apartment. he rents is provided by his employer and according to the contract, he's not allowed to live outside or is and including us.
3:22 pm
even though our visit was arranged with that phone, so a supervisor the day before a phone so is banned from working for 11 days, losing almost half of his monthly salary. at our phones, those requests, we do not contact his employer. but we ask the association of brazil's majors, citrus producers, citrus b, r. to clarify the situation it is not possible to obtain accurate information about the alleged incident. however, it is likely that depending on the company's code of conduct, the employee has signed a contract for bidding them to disclose internal company information which may be considered serious misconduct. the since we are still being watched, we call off the shoot without phone. so we don't want him to get into any more trouble the fact that our visit had such drastic consequences for our phone so
3:23 pm
raises more questions for us. how exactly does the orange industry work in brazil? around 75 percent of the worlds, the orange juice exports come from the country to make it workers pick between 65 and 110000000000 oranges a year by hand. the industry is dominated by 3 multi national companies. louis dreyfus, citrus circle, and controller. they are responsible for a large part of the juice. exports about half of the oranges for global jews production come from their own plantations. of the other half comes from independent farmers who supply the industry the days after we last saw a phone. so we finally get permission to shoot at an orange field in south palo. the visit is organized by the jews company's association on the plantation of one
3:24 pm
of their suppliers, the unlike in supermarkets back home, the oranges here are green and yellow. this has nothing to do with ripeness, but rather with temperature, the green chlorophyll in the appeal only breaks down below 12 degrees celsius. and this is what makes them orange. in this field, 30 workers pick oranges for consumption in brazil and the global juice industry the using a letter. the workers pick the fruit from the trees which are up to 5 meters tall. a field sack weighs about 2070 load. the document was beginning. i did everything wrong for me and now i used to work for
3:25 pm
tree from top to bottom and one go. when i started, man, i picked all the trees individually, just at the bottom. then i picked them all again, individually. just at the top. i think the box is ups like dining room or in the wrong place and and it was very complicated for the vehicle. we noticed a tremendous speed at which the workers pick with their bare hands. each of them harvest, it's about $1.00 tons of oranges a day. so on average, each one fails just under age 2070 low bags per hour. those who can't keep up this fast paced risk losing their job. at least according to the union. a we made a policy though baseball. he works for the agricultural union fed i asked,
3:26 pm
which also conducts independent studies documenting the working conditions on the plantations. i that got a deep vinyl dorski corner on the day me neither one of those companies only keep the workers who take a certain amount sample to be able to do the job next year to they have to harvest an average of 60 back. in addition to the boss known as the got to include constantly exerts pressure. the this is because of his salary also depends on how much the workers harvest to produce of mice. the $1000000000.00 jews companies pay the legal minimum wage of $1200.00 re eyes. the equivalent of around $200.00 euro is a month regardless of the amount harvested this wages barely enough to survive in brazil . that's why, according to the union, many workers try to collect even more, so they can top up their pay with bonuses that we need to be up hub on that. the director of the citrus b r,
3:27 pm
the association of the 3 jews giants. he is the voice of the brazilian orange juice industry. he explains that the productivity principle is there to reward those who work hardest. this increases an average salary to about 280 euros. although natural states that he does not know the specific quantities, workers are expected to harvest. he struggles to understand the criticism of the productivity principal. let me find a new one. every job you have to reach a certain goal in order to continue working on people. that doesn't seem strange to me, but if you have a certain goal and it has to be achieved with it, i don't see why it should be any different with an orange canada. just sit each page here on the plantation where the association has given us permission to film conditions appear ideal. e b papa metal assures us, but what we see here is common practice across the citrus industry. workers are wearing personal protective equipment, goggles and gloves against the sharp,
3:28 pm
thorns of the trees and leg protection against poisonous snake bites. these are required by labor law on all orange farms. the industry association assures us this is also written in the contracts with their suppliers and orange pickers. but the union tells us a different story. with the union's help, we find a small plantation and sell and how low, where we shoot unnoticed and without permission. here things look very different. some of the workers don't have snake protection or gloves as we cannot say with certainty whether these oranges are also intended for jews. but what we see here is no exception. say the trade unionists also and the jews industry. the above the head, the agrees,
3:29 pm
the 70 year old has dedicated his life to fighting for the rights of brazilian orange pickers. he was the head of the fed. i asked for union until 2017 though he is now retired above the handle is still maintains close contact with the workers and they'll be that yada, which is how he learns firsthand about the conditions on the plantations. because let me see what else to do to advise you to buy the books to the workers rarely have any protective equipment, especially at the smaller suppliers where conditions are worse. they do not follow health and safety regulations by the companies have been allowed to outsource. work since 2017 this means that they can hand over work and responsibility for it to 3rd parties, including individuals. as the ministry of labor explains,
3:30 pm
it's especially the sub contractors who often lack the financial resources for protective gear or compliance with labor laws. the as outsourcing has grown since 2017, the problems for orange pickers have grown to the lowest opinion. the most s i think, but is laws and ultimately i always find violations when 3rd party companies are involved. me stop by and stop by the door to support the door man. are the working conditions of a smaller producers are often not the same as those of the big companies that purchase. the fruit prosecutor is jose madura and has been monitoring labor law violations for 25 years, including on orange plantations, on site inspections are part of his job time and again he encounters on registered
3:31 pm
pickers working off the books. he describes to us the violations he encounters when inspecting workers mode of ga well or their living conditions are precarious in each but they have no personal protective equipment being did you do all? this is what pictures of former inspection show in the last 7 years. the ministry of labor in south hollow has recorded over 1300 violations, mainly among the industry, smaller suppliers. as the prosecutor tells us, in the notes they look color, they plowed the positive sort of face. so there's often no place for workers to have a proper meal. or even toilet separated by we also see the mishandling of agro chemicals to the core money ears with level books, food on the end, his colleagues usually carry out inspections on the basis of specific complaints for a few years now, the number of inspections has been decreasing what is the reason for this, the inspections are not
3:32 pm
a priority for politicians. the prosecutor explains. since the country has been in a severe economic crisis, funds have been caught and there's a lack of personnel and on site inspections need just that time money and personnel also because they can only take place with police protection. no follow them was a federal site. i think the eyes of singled us for kids last, most of them was we'll get all of the name, was it that we don't conduct the inspections without security personnel is there because we never know the level of hostility will encounter on this. we often encounter supervisors who are prone to violence. i do anyway, numerous workers reporting to events. and with those we've, it's often drummed into the government inspection is there to take away their jobs instead of improving their conditions. so that's why we only go with security. go stick with us. we asked pub on it though. what does he know about the conditions on the plantations, especially with independent suppliers. so see, quaint, i'm ok,
3:33 pm
so let's keep it up. i don't on software that at the design, is it bank and this nonsense data does not support minus the 1000 people work in the field every year deal with and i guarantee use it in our fields. is she doing the fields of the industry? is more working conditions, lloyd, in our state of the art the do, do food and our suppliers are in colorado. move to the to provide training to do the masses. beef as if someone doesn't sleep by the rules she fail game that has to be addressed. who could use a hag a, b, i. e. so think so violations are the perception. i'm going to note in the rule that is gonna sell la says so no way i had whether that's true or not. we can't say, however, prosecutor is jose, my thought on our reports, that conditions did not improve during the pandemic, and he describes further problems. ultima is best, so not a mazda pick them. is the lucky room or the person, not that me to. during the last inspection of an orange plantation park,
3:34 pm
we discovered a group of about 32nd workers. it was the cold seasons, looked at. some of them were living in apartments without betting, without adequate mattresses sink without protection from the cold key for a subject. while the same process, so a goto for you. we also witnessed similar housing conditions, but can show them only in part to protect the workers. this is accommodation that companies rent to migrant workers. these images show footage from 2020 by swiss n g o. public di workers living in cramped quarters and broken mattresses. hardly any furniture. hardly without protection. from the often chilly evening temperatures between june and august and south palo, the, the unions to report poor housing conditions, the thing,
3:35 pm
what more does your room, there are no decent beds, no bathroom, no decent place to rest before going to work the next day. the conditions in many houses are terrible, and the next morning they have to get up without having properly recovered to go back to picking oranges in the field. centrist producers, citrus to go with riley and louis dreyfus. right to inform us that there housing conditions meet the required standards. no official figures or information on housing is available for the independent suppliers. the trade unionist policy, though baseball is in contact with many workers in the region. he says that despite for housing or working conditions, many are too afraid to complain or file a lawsuit. i think the scale,
3:36 pm
i won't think that you the keels side, the cancer conversely, so the companies keep a record of the workers who complain and they can forget about being hired against us on this, on this practice should be banned to put associated people shouldn't risk being punished or demanding their rights as broken or something, it much let us know prisoners could also substitute companies blacklisting workers. can it be true? the our team meets a local lawyer who wants to remain anonymous on all costs for fear of the companies . he knows several workers who are not satisfied but the fear of possible consequences from filing a complaint is great. he forwards us a voice message from one of his clients setup a follow up with the addition, sleep scape or get about my complaint about we need this work on my family and i
3:37 pm
can't afford to lose this job. please excuse me. we start get up. what can we do to get go 5, the boy, the industry association, citrus be our rights to us. the companies are regularly audited by both the ministry of labor and the unions. this shows that ways to launch complaints exist and are effective. it is important to highlight that brazilian legislation guarantees that any worker can claim their rights in a court of law. the during our research, we learned that it's especially workers on the suppliers, plantations. the smaller and independent companies who are not always well protected. we are on our way to meet former farmer here need b as all the we don't know what the working conditions were like for him in the
3:38 pm
field called. but he tells us that he too was under enormous pressure as a supplier. no, no, i mean if you don't need yes watching, making a lot of this, he's writing e b as a teacher who didn't did he? i worked as an orange farmer for 30 years. all of a sudden i have to give it to the bottom, leave everything behind there, so i'm left with sadness fuels. my memory is so dodgy, elaine, but on his 60 hector's of land he farmed oranges, which he sold to controlling and citrus to go to major of citrus exporters. he did not have fixed contracts for the regular purchase of his orange as he says, the big industry players only bought oranges when the harvest from their own fields was not enough. the purchase price often fluctuate. at times he says he had to sell his oranges at absurdly low prices. indian he could no longer cover the costs of
3:39 pm
production and harvesting, and it was costing him too much to maintain his plantation. we'll say that about $3000.00 so much if it's out there 2 years, i worked with the lower and dedication regarding until i was so indebted there will be to god that i have to give up everything you can, which is very sad with the cities the as auntie is $75.00, and it will take him at least 4 more years, he calculates to pay off his debts. he recently joined a class action lawsuit in london against the jews giant controller, represented by the law firm p g m b m. more than 1500 former farmers are suing for financial compensation. the allegation is that good trial a was part of a car towel that colluded to push down the purchase price of oranges, bankrupting small farmers control a denies the allegations. the company, however, has already admitted to price fixing once before in 2016. while filming,
3:40 pm
we need a woman who is also filed a lawsuit against one of the big companies to protect her identity. we will call her victoria. she's been working as a picker in the orange fields of south palo for 27 years, having come here from northeastern brazil as a child. her parents wanted to build a better life for themselves. and in the beginning they were doing just that. for me, orange picking was every thing i never wanted to stay at home. i always wanted to be on the field for today. i only go because i have to. i need the money. my son to the she earns between $180.28 euro is a month, but says her health is suffering the diseases. since 2018. i'm no longer the same, so humans back then i was healthy,
3:41 pm
but today i'm playing my headaches. my whole body hurts the rib, so the badly the knees. i'm in a lot of pain afraid she wanted to spare her children, but in order to have enough money to live, her husband also works in the fields and their 21 year old daughter recently started to lease its size. this is complicated. i didn't want this to the readers, but we don't have a choice. it's difficult or i do one of my children. they're picking oranges in the field with me, not knowing they might get bitten by a snake or fall off the ladder. they take the risk every day with this guy. they've got to do them, but i can, he's give me it's terrifying. i mean, the she worries that there help will be compromised to since 2018. victoria has had to take daily medication for shortness of breath and
3:42 pm
headaches. she believes it's the pesticides and the orange fields that have made her sick. never was most tangible supposed to just come by them. i. i remember it like it was yesterday. i felt sick on the plantation and in the afternoon i couldn't work anymore. i went home for my husband to continue to work the next day. i couldn't get out of bed or jesus, my whole body was hurting. i went to the doctor and was on the sick leave for a week to because i needed money please. when i asked the company if they would reimburse me, they asked why, please. and i said that i had suffered points and they need to be tardy. explains how pesticides are often sprayed near the workers. this happens in the fields all the time. she says, both her former employer and the industry association reject these accusations.
3:43 pm
so while you're going to see a fall, this should not happen under any circumstance. so again bustling what i see here are extreme situations. obviously not absolutely a typical you cannot serve as a reference to a common practice. yeah. but i'm the brazilian citrus industry. we'll do that. but isn't it? the brazilian ministry of health calculates that on average one person dies every 2 days in brazil from pesticide poisoning to the amount of these debts that can be attributed to orange farming, though, cannot be estimated but victoria is certain that her symptoms are due to pesticide poisoning in 2019, she decided to take her case to court a step that has not been easy for her. and
3:44 pm
it looked like, let me, let me, let me give you a buzz is going to give you. these are big companies and for very powerful, i wouldn't recommend anyone to mess with them well enough. i didn't really want to do it to see this is a very small city, though, as news travels fast, you will see for a couple years lucy's going into skiing, was it can make it hard to find work rentals because the property in the 20 s case was dropped before evidence was even presented, but she received a small amount of compensation or, or waste for the future is that the workers on the plantations are treated with respect trade unionist about a seato knows other workers who have experienced similar problems. he would like to see the companies regularly check their employees for pesticide poisoning. the ball is also something that's a problem. i think they got somebody hit going official. jason,
3:45 pm
i would like the companies to address the problem without the need for outside parties to intervene comes how may i ask what the industry want is? so i think workers should definitely sue and defend themselves, please if it's not fair to go to work completely healthy by me and poisoned with pesticides in your blood. and you can tell me logical when she got the thoughts and according to the industry association, strict guidelines are followed on when and how pesticides or reply to the field. farming oranges is demanding and completely eliminating the use of chemicals is not currently possible, says giuliano i t as managing director of phone de citrus the research center was funded by orange farmers and the jews industry in 1977 to help make citrus farming more sustainable you're going to shines the claim on the assignment in sub tropical areas like sal, paula, florida, mexico, where it rains a lot. short of is perfect for citrus farming on some some weed and for great
3:46 pm
productivity and quality. but unfortunately, it also favors many pass assigned diseases, therefore, and it's in certain situation vicious pesticides are needed to bite them well done to cause either put them up or i will do is according to scientists, the huge mano cultures and orange farming, also lead to more past than plant diseases, which is why numerous agro chemicals are used according to phone days, interest. these do not pose any danger to workers, but the workers who handled the pesticides often lacking pardon expertise, explains the prosecutor who repeated the carries out. inspections for the brazilian ministry of labor. the almost, i'm just going to arm on the arm as it not male with us is must him, was fault to the god of sit the so glen bowman, the age of the most am, was probably the encounter of the following. probably sat. so can we, does this?
3:47 pm
pesticides are stored incorrectly for the department of there's often a lack of training in the handling of these poisons. they are improperly distributed and often without protective equipment. in addition, the clothing that has been in direct contact is not adequately clean. display to students. i mean, so thing is that some of the thoughts, the, our investigation takes us to brussels, where we meet loudy, somebody as boom by the jeep. she's been researching agro chemical use in brazil for 12 years. in 2017, she published her findings in her home country the the book stuff, sizes us developing according to the ministry of health, 56000 cases of pesticide, poisoning reported between 20102019. so the so that's an average of 10 code today. but the ministry calculates the every case for pulse of 50 go undetected. that means that we may have to leave you in sick and poisoned people. this is
3:48 pm
a tragedy. this, i'm going to get off. the brazilian industry says oranges for jews are grown under strict regulations. they say the pesticides used to pose no danger to the workers. but whether that is actually the case, it's hard to verify. according to them biology, pesticide poisoning is not always easy to prove. duplex and that's how would you know that they're accurate chemicals that you're trying to take to the black box. other types of testing need to be telling me they speak on the often the blood test is nursing off. health professionals are also not always trained to detect the best a site was to see many highly toxic pesticides used in brazil are supplied from countries in the you. although some of them are banned in the u itself. they're still sold to brazil for voltage safety. just say it's there are a 116 pesticides you proof that citrus cultivation in brazil and over sushi of them
3:49 pm
are back in the you get 10 percent of these brand chemicals assaulted for sale by companies in you're probably be those phoned se trust disagrees saying that only pesticides approved in the you are used in the orange fields and according to letter you sent me as well by the g. the band. the pesticides could cause parkinson's disease and b carcinogenic, among other things. but the use of the substance is also has consequences in the you, but also does not have the pesticides that your cells come back to the market in the fruit, the jews, the coffee, the main unit is one of the biggest consume is presenting products are produced this is a vicious cycle of poisoning in 2018, the european food safety authority examined the product. it's important from brazil to the you. about 7 percent had pesticide residues above the use approved limit. in 2019 lady, some of the eligible body decided to publish her studies in europe as a result,
3:50 pm
scanned the navy as largest organic product supermarket separate it's trade ties with brazil and boom, biology received threats. what's going to say was english not off up in gloss. after i launched the english version of the atlas and you are the intimidation in french style. so just let me as article this is threatening e mails, warnings from colleagues and a break and at home. the more time past, the more she feared for herself and her 2 sons. in early 2021. somebody left brazil and moved to belgium. me. but she's now continuing her research and brussels on her appeal to the e. u commission. as minimal may to al monkwood essex should come 1st and foremost above economic interest, which is what you consul, something to others that is forbidden in your country failed. the b e. u needs to
3:51 pm
act ethically up to walk the way things are changing for germany in the future. the coalition government is planning to hold exports of pesticides that are not approved in the you on the basis of protection of human health. similar measures are also being discussed at the you level the in brazil phone to see to us as researching biological past controllers to reduce the use of pesticides. among other things, they are breeding a species of last that feeds on one of them has. busy the felice deepest, but we produce about $100200.00 a month and release them in the orange deals there in the citrus value looks up
3:52 pm
with its research funded citrus, as it has already managed to cut down pesticide use by 50 percent compared to 20 years ago, but doing without agro chemicals is still on thinkable a cell pile know who she is it possible to grow oranges organically here. know a plant that currently produces $200.00 kilos of oranges with then only heal 10 kilo s like i to, as most of the organic orange juice. bonnen germany comes from mexico, where orange plantations are smaller. after the us, germany is the biggest market for orange juice. in the world, and the demand for juices with feels of certification is increasing. in addition to the organic seal, which focuses on ecological sustainability feels such as deep, fair plus and the fair trademark guarantee high social standards. now have these tight c team. this in the posts of the industry show on the side load them. sustainability is a topic that the juice industry has been reckoning with for
3:53 pm
a long time at the institution today. i can see it is now often a requirement and the products are produced according to sustainable criteria, and it's like the clouds hybrid from the german fruit juice industry association represents the company's selling orange juice on the german market. he is aware of the accusations that minimum labor conditions are not observed everywhere. we discussed sales hoped not, let's see the document. he had been con, housing dealings introduction. in order for the whole thing to be documented in a traceable way, we didn't. plus we decided to certify the orange juice as it can cooperation with the brazilian suppliers. with this and as a result of the reinforced alliance certification has grown quite a bit is of 20192020 lions, said if it's equal to mixed up to be no point today. so i would say just the basic requirement for orange juice. so i knew bosses and for the fuel oceans of rain, forest, the lions and n g o operating in 70 countries. awards products deals to plantations that meet
3:54 pm
certain environmental and social criteria, such as fair working conditions. it now certifies around half of the juices in germany, according to industry estimates. in addition to seals, it is also behind initiatives promoting better standards. the new supply chain act, which will take effect starting in 2023, will also force the industry to comply with human rights along its supply chain. but this applies primarily to the direct suppliers of german companies. for the remaining suppliers, it only applies that there are actual indications of a violation. so at the lower end of the supply chain, such as on plantations where most violations occur, the supply chain act as it is now, will have very little effect. back to brazil and will be that china. this region is where the majority of oranges are
3:55 pm
picked for the jews industry. here we witness where the mechanisms fail. we need 3 women who speak openly about working for us supplier without registration. just like, according to the ministry of labor and estimated quarter of all orange picker, so it's much better not to be registered in the of assume if you're registered with the thing. it does have the advantage that you go to medical certificate. if you're saying it, or if you're not registered, the salary are much higher. you get paid double $0.20 a bag instead of only 10 social security health insurance and pension insurance, which can be important for the future don't matter to them. the main thing for now is to survive. it's the only thing we have here and there's no other work in this region. same vision, the majority here picks oranges because of the only job in town. the oranges are all we have left. and if you don't pick oranges, you dive hunger. they know that legal regulations are sometimes disregarded,
3:56 pm
such as mandatory breaks from work. but they put off with it fundable signals i. if you're not interested, you're free to decide whether you take a break or not. and don't know, isn't it better to take a break because the work is so hard. but now you're, you're less. and if you work less, you earn less going. according to the industry association sub contractors receive regular training and are required to adhere to a specific contract. clauses hiring workers were not legally registered, as strictly forbidden by member accompanies the any irregularity must be found against and brought in line with brazil. strict laws, the much has improved on the orange plantations in brazil, and recent years,
3:57 pm
seals now set standards. as a result and certified plantations are monitored more regularly. and yet as the prosecutor from the ministry of labor witnesses again and again, the strict rules are constantly broken in order to produce more cheaply if the owner of displays or that's a better size, is that softball. this year i have done 3 or 4 inspections in the state of sell paula. every time our department present, the workers were not registered in order for laws to be respected and the state must act more visible and present. it is one of the fewer violations there will be more, but still get all the scope. in other words, more state controls are needed. but these are not insight right now. on brazil's plantations, oranges are produced for the world market. a profitable business for the big
3:58 pm
companies. so the workers don't end up paying the highest price for the orange juice. everyone needs to keep a close eye on things. the the good. are you ready to talk about sex? asked and we need to get the same old are kind of things that you can do to ease the sexual tension. everyone works for their own holy guys. right? because the young people seem to be educated on the subject to the 77 percent in
