“We need to be able to assess the damage and then assess the part that will be taken by insurance (for those who are insured) and the part that will be taken by national solidarity
,” added the minister.
“
National solidarity must be expressed, it is binding on everyone.
We will deal with cases on a case-by-case basis.
Each farmer is a special case”
, underlined Marc Fesneau.
According to the minister,
“we will then have to ask ourselves questions: what arrangements are we putting in place to try to deal with these disasters?”
.
“Farmers don't want to ask themselves each year if it's covered by insurance or not.
The important thing for them is to produce
,” he recalled.
The Minister, appointed a month ago to Agriculture in the government of Elisabeth Borne, and re-elected Sunday deputy in the 1st constituency of Loir-et-Cher, also considered it necessary to understand
"the phenomena which are taking place in order to try to provide preventive measures when possible”
.
"For the drought, we will have to put in place retaining devices that allow us to recover water and use it in times of scarcity
," suggested Marc Fesneau in particular.
