Hunting: Lombardia, ANUU Migrationists and Federcaccia at the regional thematic table; among the topics under discussion the role played by hunting and hunters as a socio-economic resource at the service of the community.
At the end of March, the Lombardy Region, on the initiative of President Maroni, organized the “Tell Lombardy” event dedicated to verifying the objectives achieved and the next steps in the horizon of the Legislature. In this way, various thematic working tables were convened which brought together all the social and economic representatives interested in the various production sectors and the various problems of the Lombard community. Federcaccia and ANUU Migrationists were invited by the Councilor Gianni Fava to participate in the Agriculture Thematic Table where there was thus the opportunity to bring to the attention of the Region and all the other subjects present at the Table representing the agricultural, industrial, commercial, cooperative of Lombardy, the role played by hunting and by Lombard hunters as a socio-economic resource at the service of the community. For Federcaccia the regional President Mauro Cavallari and Mrs. Rossana Lucini were present, while the National President Marco Castellani and the Regional President Domenico Grandini participated for the ANUUMigratoristi.
FIdC and ANUUMigratorists emphasized in particular the irreplaceable economic and environmental function carried out by the hunting system in Lombardy, highlighting the commitment made in concrete terms on the territory for the management and improvement of habitats, for the monitoring of territorial and fauna resources, for the prevention of environmental crimes, for the control of invasive, problematic and alien species, for the enhancement of the supply chain connected to game meat, recalling the importance of a close operational relationship with the agricultural world to offer Lombard agriculture also new opportunities of protection and integration of traditional income.
FIdC and ANUU Migrators have therefore drawn the attention of the Region to the main problems that await a definitive solution such as the current institutional reform in progress which must guarantee an effective and efficient performance of the functions of wildlife-hunting planning, the enhancement and maintenance of forms of traditional hunting by activating all the administrative procedures necessary to ensure the correct application of the levy in derogation and the catching of live decoys in full compliance with the Community directives on the subject.
FIdC and ANUUMigratoristi thank Councilor Fava for the opportunity and for the attention shown to the topics covered, certain that the Region's commitment will continue to finally meet the legitimate expectations of Lombard hunters. But in particular FIdC and ANUU Migrators thank the Lombardy Region for having recognized the importance of the hunting system, finally fully involved in institutional and social relations at the regional level, recognizing in the Associations invited to the table the serious and concrete representation of a hunting world who is able to formulate serious and viable proposals, as well as to reaffirm hunting and its values in the society of which it is an integral and fundamental part.
