Government, Giansanti: “I hope the executive of competent with a strategy for agriculture”

“I hope that the government will be born as soon as possible, whoever has time does not wait for time, and I hope that President Meloni will follow the jokes she made to the press and therefore that she will form a competent government”. Thus Massimiliano Giansanti, president of Confagricoltura, interviewed by Adnkronos on the sidelines of the presentation of the Merano Winefestival in Rome. “A government that has a strong characterization in the protection of Italy but – he adds – in a scenario in which Italy must be at the center of the future of Europe as a hub of the Mediterranean area and in the need to have a greater balance between the countries of the North and those of the Mediterranean “. “A government that, especially in the agri-food sector, – he adds – can continue to pursue the challenges that await us in Brussels but above all that can plan a strategy project for agriculture that will come in the coming years”. “It is clear that the government – emphasizes the number one of Confagricoltura – will have to be called immediately to take radical, strong measures to save Italian companies, because even today many companies, not only in agriculture but in the country system, are at risk of disappear “.” We immediately need to lower the energy cost for companies to continue to accompany them on the market and, as the cost of the shopping cart will tend to increase more and more, – he adds – the groups of single-income or low-income people will be those who will suffer more and we cannot afford this, otherwise there will be more and more people with a low willingness to buy food “. “Already today, with regard to the question of energy costs, there are completely different instruments of competition within Europe itself and it is evident that Italian companies suffer on the domestic and common market”. “Right now we have to stop inflation, stop the recession and I hope that the government does not know majorities and minorities on this. We need a single voice from Italy, in support of Italians and Italian companies. Right now, how Confagricoltura, the watchwords must be three: listen, decide, realize “. (By Cristina Armeni)
