Who will take part in the POA
As announced by Pio Chiaramoni, president ofTerritorial area of Macerata hunting 2, the Marche Region has just approved the POA, i.e. the Annual Operational Plan for wild boar control. All those who have attended the relevant course and have applied to ATC Macerata can therefore operate in its territory.
No to hunting
The Operational Plan itself is drawn up in accordance with the reference provisions and complete with what is required by them. Among other things, the ruling of the TAR Marche recently came into play (number 170 of 2024 published last February 26) which declared the illegitimacy of hunting as a method of selective control of wild boar.
The 2018 plan
Precisely this ruling inevitably quashed paragraph 3.2.4 "Control with the hunting technique" of the plan approved with DGR 645 of 17 May 2018. Therefore it is noted that this control method cannot be adopted when implementing the POA ( source: ATC MC2).
