The eighteenth edition of the International Forum of Agriculture and Food Coldiretti, also guest of the national president of the Hunting Federation Massimo Buconi. “I thank the President of Coldiretti Ettore Prandini and the Secretary General Vincenzo Gesmundo for the welcome invitation to attend the works. Many interventions heard in these two days of work, all of a high standard, from the institutional ones of the President of the Conte Council, the Minister of Agriculture Bellanova and the President of the European Parliament David Sassoli to the more technical and specific ones ”, declared President Buconi.
"There are many points for reflection on possible, indeed I would say necessary and largely no longer postponable, synergies between the hunting world and the agricultural world. Ours is a dialogue that we must continue and deepen. To unite us not only the common place where we carry out our respective activities, but the belonging and sharing of that set of social and human values, traditions and history which combine to form the concept of rurality.
But the agri-food industry that Coldiretti represents so well is also a primary economic value, the true wealth of our country. There, hunting is not and cannot be extraneous to this value and indeed, we believe very concretely that it represents perhaps a small but tangible contribution ”, concluded Buconi.
