Among others, the farms that are in group II will have three years to adapt their facilities to have adequate space for changing clothes for the personnel who work on the farm and visits or have a manure heap in which to store solid manure and a pond of slurry if generated. Group III farms (with more than 850 head of livestock) will have the same period to have fencing or perimeter isolation that isolates the farm from the outside, limiting the entry of vehicles and people and "minimizing the entry of other mammals that may act as disease vectors. Likewise, a period of three years is given for operating farms to have waiting rooms that guarantee the comfort of the animals, "ensuring sufficient space and adequate conditions of mobility, ventilation and temperature so as to minimize the stress and risk of injury during the process. Deadlines of one or two years are also established to adapt farms that are already in operation to other minimum requirements related to animal welfare and in matters of biosafety, hygiene, animal safety and the environment. Furthermore, within the transitional provisions it is specified that the files corresponding to the authorization of exploitations in the processing phase for which no final resolution has been issued will be resolved in accordance with the regulations in force at the time of submission of the application.
The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food kept the deadline open until November 10 to send observations with the objective that citizens and organizations that consider it would send the appropriate contributions. Greenpeace , which, like Ecologists in Action , maintains a campaign against macro-farms, has made allegations against this decree, demanding that it forces the Malta Phone Number reconversion of the large surfaces that currently exist and that it establishes a maximum of 180 copies. From the Union of Small Farmers (UPA), the majority in the sector, they point out that in our country, which mainly exports pork and beef, there is only a minority of farms with a few thousand cows. And they consider that they will no longer exist in the future, due to the strategy agreed upon by this organization and the Ministry of Agriculture. SMALL LIVESTOCK FARMERS Román Santalla, head of livestock farming at UPA and a livestock farmer himself, explains that “at UPA we defend small and medium-sized farms, and we have worked hard for this decree. In pigs there are no macro farms: a recent decree limits the number of heads to 750 mothers and 4,000 fattening places.” “And now we are working on beef.
We are breaking our hearts to move forward with this issue, because we defend the family model of livestock exploitation, we oppose a farm of 20,000 cows,” explains Santalla, before pointing out that 85% of the sector is made up of small and medium-sized family businesses. . MACROGRANJA DE NOVIERCAS (SORIA) One of the first to accuse Garzon of attacking the meat sector was the president of Castilla y León, Alfonso Fernández Mañueco, who is in the middle of the electoral pre-campaign. It is precisely in a town in that community, in Noviercas (Soria), where one of the main current industrial macrofarm projects is located, although planned for milk production. According to UPA, with this decree projects like Noviercas will not be possible. Greepeace, however, has indicated in its allegations to the Royal Decree that its wording must be changed since, as it stands, the Noviercas project will continue.
