Hon. Maria Cristina Caretta | “The excessive presence of wildlife endangers the safety of citizens and causes considerable economic damage to farmers. Minister Bellanova can no longer continue to ignore the cry of alarm from the world of agriculture and must act quickly. To date, farmers are left to their fate in defending themselves against attacks by wildlife. It is necessary to implement a serious preventive policy through an activity of control of the ungulate population, especially wild boars. Scientific studies in the sector explain that the main method of containment of wild boar populations, which in recent years has been exponential, is represented by wildlife management plans.
In this regard, I presented with colleague Hon. Monica Ciaburro a Bill and, as group leader in the Agriculture Commission in the Chamber of Deputies, I asked that Minister Bellanova come to the Commission to report and clarify unequivocally whether he intends to intervene in defense of our agricultural entrepreneurs. Since he is still the holder of the Agriculture Department, we expect from Minister Bellanova, who is so decisive on his priorities, the same attitude also on issues and problems concerning the world of agriculture ”.
This is what the Hon. Maria Cristina Caretta, group leader of the Brothers of Italy in the Agriculture Commission of the Chamber of Deputies.
