[Intercitrus (Spanish Citrus Interprofessional Associations)]
1996
Martinez Ejarque, J.M.
In the vertical vertebration of an agricultural sector, the interprofessional associations are created as a suitable organization model and try to increase the global competition of the sector by means of tasks of common interest for their members. The interprofession has followed, in many European countries, a long and fruitful course that unfortunately contrasts with the existing lag in Spain. In the case of Spain, the interprofessionalization is a current issue that presents difficulties only in comparison with the advisability of reaching such a model. However, the citrus sector benefits from a wide and dynamic vertebrated course, that is attempting to find at present its definite paragon in Intercitrus. The "weight" of this course, as well as the logical conflict of interests among the four subsectors converging in Intercitrus (production, private trade, associate trade and industry) generates a host of vertebrate constraints that prevent interprofession from moving forward and even jeopardize their continuity. The present study shows these problems, as well as the views that the different organizations making up the interprofessional organization have on the most relevant aspects of the legislative framework that regulates their vertebrating activity: Law 38/94 (parity, representativity, rule scope), Law 19/82 (Agricultural contracts) as well as the adaptation of Intercitrus statutes to the Law 38/94 (financing, lobby function, etc.), interprofessional policies on agreed functions, etc. For that purpose, a series of open interviews have been held that show the opinion of experts and relevant people within all the Intercitrus organizations (Presidents, Directors or Secretary Generals). After showing the results of the survey, a critical and objective evaluation is presented by the author.
