An agreement that lasts over time
The Mugello parking facility for the hunted game. The project, also strongly supported by the Tuscany Region and the Hunter Associations, was carried out by the Mountain Union of the Mugello Municipalities on the basis of an agreement signed in 2015 with the Metropolitan City of Florence and ATC Florence-Prato. The new structure will allow hunters to deliver game here, essentially ungulates such as wild boar, fallow deer, roe deer, regardless of the opening hours of the meat center which is adjacent and communicating, having available a separate entrance from the main facility.
Meat slaughter
In the rest center the hunters will take care of the preliminary operations on the animals, then leaving them in a protected and refrigerated environment available to the veterinarian of the health company who will verify their suitability for processing by the Firenzuola agricultural cooperative that manages the Carni Mugello center, and to marketing according to the regulations in force. “This facility is a fundamental facility for offering guarantees on the slaughter of game meat and can give a strong boost to an important game meat chain such as the Mugello one - said the vice president and councilor for agri-food Stefania Saccardi.
Wild animal control
A strong control action must be exercised on ungulates to safeguard both agriculture and safety on our roads, but all this must be linked to a path of recovery, control and transparent circulation of meats that are absolutely controlled. Thanks to the Healthcare Company, to the ATC in the person of its president Piero Galeotti, to the Provincial Police that supports us in the control of wild animals, this structure will also be able to serve them and at the same time guarantee safe meat from a health point of view and traceable according to EU regulations, fueling a virtuous chain of marketing and use of meat from wild animals that are of great quality "(source: Tuscany Region).
