The prefect of Nuoro is ready to mobilize the Army against the locusts that have devastated crops and pastures in central Sardinia in recent years, even reaching the houses of Ottana and its surroundings. For Wednesday the prefect Giancarlo Dionisi convenes a summit in Nuoro in which the regional councilor for agriculture, Valeria Satta, with the technicians of Laore and Forestas and the Province, will illustrate the plan developed to deal with the emergency. The prefect wanted to involve the Army which will be present at the table to evaluate the possibility of a contribution, starting as early as March, in the phase of monitoring the larvae. « We must produce the maximum possible effort to reverse the negative trend of recent years - explains the prefect Dionisi -: the estimated damages produced amounted to 20/25 million every summer, with too many families economically on their knees. To eradicate this scourge it is absolutely necessary to deploy all the human and technological resources that can be drawn upon in this province. In this direction, the contribution of the military and their means appears absolutely essential". Prefect Dionisi also invited the firefighters to the meeting on Wednesday.
