The Landes Department communicates:On the proposal of its president Xavier Fortinon, the Permanent Commission of the Department of Landes voted, Friday November 22, the principle of covering 100% of the costs of purchasing the third dose of vaccine against avian influenza. This decision comes as two foie gras waterfowl farms were infected in the Landes at the beginning of November and other outbreaks in France were detected. The measure, which concerns label and traditional farm production, was decided subject to validation by the Ministry of Agriculture of the application of this third dose and in the event of no coverage of costs by the state. “We want to provide the most effective and rapid response possible to the sector” underlines Xavier Fortinon. The possible reimbursement also concerns 60% of the costs of travel and veterinary samples based on the actual costs borne by the breeders.
