"The uncontrolled growth of the population of wildlife, in particular of ungulates (wild boars), has become a real emergency throughout the country that causes considerable damage to agriculture, an increase in road accidents with sometimes fatal outcomes and risks of a hygienic-sanitary nature linked to the spread of epizootic diseases, such as African swine fever (Psa), which can jeopardize the entire livestock sector ", this is the alarm cry launched by the representatives of the Conference of Regions during a hearing at the Agriculture Commission of the Chamber.

    "It is urgent to define adequate intervention tools - explains Cristiano Corazzari, councilor of the Veneto Region, representing the Agricultural Policy Commission of the Conference of Regions and Autonomous Provinces - because the national regulatory framework is outdated and deficient. We need to make the rules more effective. of Law No. 157/1992 and of the Delrio Law to allow an effective restoration of the environmental balance that the situation of uncontrolled development of wildlife in recent years - concludes Corazzari - has substantially compromised ". 

 Uncem, with the whole system of mountain local authorities, "fully shares the lines of action indicated by the Conference of Regions for the containment of wild boars. An emergency that Uncem has repeatedly represented, with all the Italian mountain municipalities. agricultural enterprises and for road safety. Action is needed immediately ". Uncem, with the national president Marco Bussone, recognizes the seven proposed lines of action as important and relaunches them, asking the Government, Parliament, all Regions to act effectively and quickly.
