The meeting of the technical table on European Union Agricultural Policy (CAP) convened for this afternoon by the president of the Productive Activities Commission of the Regional Council, Piero Maieli, is skipped and Sardinian farmers are furious .
The appointment, agreed with the owner of Agriculture Gabriella Murgia , which should have been attended by trade associations together with representatives of the dairy sector and a delegation of shepherds without a flag , was canceled "because the councilor convened at the same time for this afternoon the trade associations » announced President Maieli «with great disappointment».
«It's the umpteenth joke - thunders one of the spokesmen of the shepherds without a flag, Nenneddu Sanna -, we need seriousness, they (the institutional representatives, ed) are sitting in warm armchairs, we have things to do in the countryside, we are working and we had already organized the away match, it's an absolute lack of seriousness».
Gianuario Falchi , the other spokesman for the breeders, increases the dose: «We learned about it at the last moment, but we will still be in Cagliari in the afternoon, we are furious at the lack of respect ».
The president of the Maieli commission, for his part, is awaiting a new date for the meeting from the councilor Murgia .
The establishment of the table was decided at the end of October after the hearing in the commission of the head of the department of European and international policies and rural development of the Ministry of Agriculture, Giuseppe Blasi, who had taken stock of the missing resources in the CAP program .
Compared to the old 2014-2020 European programming, in fact, the agro-pastoral sector of the island will have about 23 million euros less , as explained on that occasion by Blasi.
