Institutional meeting
“We welcome the change in strategy of the extraordinary commissioner Filippini and the Piedmont Region who have given the green light to the culling of wild boars in the buffer areas between the infected and free zones from the African swine fever. Without a doubt, this is a measure that has an important relevance in combating the spread of the virus, as our Organization has always strongly requested, since the beginning of the emergency". Thus the regional president of Cia-Agricoltori italiani Piemonte, Gabriele Carenini, at the end of the institutional meeting with the extraordinary commissioner for PSA Giovanni Filippini, this afternoon in the Palazzo della Regione in Turin.

Very delicate front
“We thank the President of the Region Cirio and the regional councilors for Health Riboldi and Agriculture Bongioanni - continues Carenini - for the work they are doing together with Commissioner Filippini on the very delicate front of the swine fever emergency in Piedmont”.
The protection of farmers
“Teamwork is more useful and necessary than ever, which is why it is very important that the containment of the disease is carried out not only on a health level, but also on that of the slaughter of wild boars, which remains an essential condition for dealing with the situation effectively, also and above all as a measure to protect farmers' income. Our Organization emphasizes that wild fauna out of control represents, on a par with Psa, one of the most serious problems in the Piedmontese agricultural world. We also appreciated that our proposal to organize a biannual update meeting with the extraordinary commissioner was accepted” (source: CIA).
