Gastronomy on the menu for the last Sunday in Politics of 2023 in Limousin: as the end-of-year holidays approach, close-up on regional products which are found on many New Year’s Eve tables: poultry, truffles or foie gras, fairs fat promises to be decisive.

As the end-of-year holidays approach, Dimanche en Politique dedicates its last broadcast of 2023 to regional products which are found on many New Year’s Eve tables: poultry, truffles or foie gras.

The Brive fat fairs have resumed under usual conditions following several years marked by Covid or the drop in production due to avian flu. These gastronomic events are unmissable in Corrèze and this year return to normal production despite new measures to combat avian flu.

Poultry, truffles and holiday products: decisive fat fairs?

To talk regarding it, Annaïck Demars receives:

  • Jean-Luc Souquières, municipal councilor in Brive delegated to fairs and markets
  • Emmanuel Carbonnièrepoultry technician at the Corrèze Chamber of Agriculture
  • Jean-Luc Viginiatcook member of Tables Gaillardes and former president of the Corrèze restaurateurs union
  • Frédéric Serresecretary of the federation of truffle growers of Corrèze

Jean-Luc Souquières: “2023 is a very, very good return to normal, we have found our calendar with 6 fat fairs and the clientele is there, certainly a little deprived last year due to the lack of production due to the avian flu. This year the enthusiasm is huge, we come very early to get our livers, we have even reserved them for some and we can also see people arriving at 5am!

This year, the enthusiasm is enormous: we come very early to get our livers, we have even reserved them for some. You can see people arriving at 5am!

On the fed up of certain breeders because of the confinement of animals decided at national level following 2 cases of avian flu in the North at the beginning of December: “Why vaccinate and confine poultry? Because we are on a trial year at European levelexplains Emmanuel Carbonnière, poultry technician at the Corrèze Chamber of Agriculture. All agriculture ministers have agreed on a vaccination trial running from the beginning of October 2023 to the end of September 2024 with virological and serological controls. Once the experiment is done, we will see how the animals behave and followingwards, we will certainly be able to sectorize the shelters.“.
