The collection site
Work continues at full speed at the Meat Storage Center of theMadonie Park Authority which is located along the state road 120, in Petralia Sottana and which will soon become a collection site for ungulates captured as part of the culling plan wanted by the Authority to combat their excessive proliferation and the consequent damage to biodiversity and crops.
A promotional tool
In recent days, the refrigeration system was completed, as well as the electrical systems. The Centre, the only one in Sicily, will also constitute a tool for promoting Madonie meats. In fact, the list of subjects who, having responded to the specific call, will be able to proceed with the collection of the culled animals to enhance their use is constantly updated.
Transforming a problem into a resource
“The Park – states Commissioner Caltagirone – is starting to complete a project that will place Sicily at the forefront in the management of the ungulate emergency. We will transform a problem into a resource, with a view to closing the supply chain, strengthening the Madonie brand by distributing local meat on a national scale, also in collaboration with educational institutions to enhance our brand" (source: Madonie Park Authority).
