Il nutria problem ad Alexandria has not yet been resolved and the local section of the Italian Farmers Confederation (CIA) he made it known in an official statement. The rodents are provoking very serious damage to the agricultural sector and to the provincial territory. In particular, the worst damage was recorded in the Casalese area, with numerous ruined crops and holes in the irrigation canals and in the embankments of the rice fields. Containment plans were not put into practice due to bureaucratic obstacles and other complications, but the control of this harmful species is expected to return to the levels of previous years.
The Piedmont Region specified with two notes a few days ago that the powers for the containment of the nutria are entrusted to the provinces, consequently the agricultural associations have turned to that of Alexandria for an urgent meeting. The CIA further recalled how in the province of Asti the culls were significant, as if to suggest a model to follow.
The alarm is as concrete as ever and the difficulties are ever greater. During the meeting, the Province will be asked how do you intend to proceed with the nutria, without neglecting other issues, including wild boars, roe deer, corvids, pigeons and other deer.
Luckily the CIA did not blame the Piedmontese hunters for being the authors of the disproportionate increase in Nutrie, Corvidi, Piccioni.
Why not make a common front to ask for permission to hunt these invasive species all year round ???
I strongly believe that the hunters agree.
A greeting
