“ Seventeen thousand times ashamed . There are no other words to comment on the defeat of the public administration than the regional councilor for liquid agriculture with pats on the back and compliments for the time and work wasted, in disgrace to the farmers who risk closing the companies and the Sardinians who pay the public administration to reject 3 out of 4 questions.
It is a defeat of the regional public administration. "Coldiretti Sardegna does not mince words when commenting on the outcome of Tuesday's hearing of the Argea and Laore Agencies in the Productive Activities Commission of the Regional Council in which the report on the questions relating to the practices for the refreshments of the now famous and sad story "drought 2017" after the meeting with a thousand farmers of the Agricultural Organization on Monday in Cagliari.
A calamitous event that in 2017 had devastated crops and brought farms to their knees, but the promised aid arrived only in part: 5,349 applications accepted out of 22,603 submitted, those rejected are 17,254.
Coldiretti therefore replies to Gabriella Murgia and the top management of Laore and Agris: "Is it normal that 22,603 agricultural entrepreneurs submit for 75% of the wrong compensation claims, despite the assistance of Laore herself?", Ask Battista Cualbu and Luca Saba , president and director of Coldiretti Sardegna.
"It is not clear - they continue - how satisfaction can be expressed for the rejection of 17,254 cases out of 22,603, with an expenditure of just 14 million out of the 38 planned in 2017 - the president and director insist - when the same administration certified damage to companies throughout the regional territory, ranging from 70 per cent for dry crops to 40 per cent for irrigation ".
