The main news:
“Animal health conference” at the start of next year, this is what the Minister of Agriculture Annie Genevard announced yesterday during a trip to the Tarn.
Expected by farmers in the south-west, Annie Genevard also specified that as part of the fight against epizootics, the vaccination strategy should, in her opinion, be modified at the European level. She also confirmed that the emergency fund of 75 million euros announced at the beginning of October would not in fact be enough, as the agricultural union organizations had indicated.
“We cannot continue like this” she admitted, while confirming for the first time that she was working on compensation for the two variants of bluetongue, therefore including FCO 8, responsible for the death of at least at least ten thousand sheep in Occitania since the start of summer.
Received in Castelnaudary yesterday evening, the Minister will still be in Aude today. It should announce measures to support cash flow and reduce the costs of Mutuelles Sociales Agricole.
VTC drivers renew their mobilization in Toulouse
Toulouse VTC drivers will once again carry out slow operations on the ring road and in the city center today. Two processions leaving Sesquières will head towards the airport and the station.
Yesterday, 110 cars took part in traffic slowing operations according to the police, which is twice as many as expected by the FO-INV union at the origin of this call for mobilization.
Remember that the demonstrators are calling on platforms like Uber and Bolt to increase their remuneration and block the registration of new drivers, who according to them are too numerous on the platforms. The movement could also be renewed tomorrow, while a meeting between the platforms and trade union organizations is planned for today in Paris.
