Good results
According to the Neapolitan Smorfia the number 22 it corresponds to the madman: those who have exploited are certainly not mad the same caliber with the weapons used to contain the otters in province of Ferrara. More precisely, we are talking about the Mezzano Valley, in which the proliferation of rodents has been successfully kept under control thanks to caliber 22. It is therefore no coincidence that politics has also come forward in this sense.
The thought of the League
Fabio Bergamini, councilor of the Northern League Emilia Romagna region, explained how the business should continue using these weapons, given that the increase of the nutria it does nothing but ruin crops and put waterways at risk. It was an experiment, but it had a positive response, with 80% of farmers who immediately said he was in favor. It is not only Bergamini who agrees with the continuation.
What companies want
Even the companies of the Mezzano Valley, which includes four municipalities in the province of Ferrara (Argenta, Comacchio, Ostellato, Portomaggiore), he would like the experimentation with the caliber 22 to go ahead, although the Region has not yet taken a decision to this effect. Waiting any longer, however, is counterproductive because otters are certainly not waiting. The territory in question, like much of the Ferrara area, is among the most penalized in the region from this point of view and awaits certain answers to questions posed for some time.
