The National Hog Dealers Association,
Ancoporkhas issued a statement in which it expresses its “deep discomfort given the serious consequences” that “the disproportionate proposal of the European Comission to improve the
animal welfare in transportation” for this group.
The association points to “the reductions in time and capacities of animals during transport that would mean a disproportionate increase in costs which would make intra-Community trade totally impossible as a result of the impossibility of passing on increases in transport prices”.
“We observe in the drafting of said regulations a clear competition between the countries of northern and southern Europe, which means a clear commercial disadvantage, since the times, temperatures and densities seem to be reduced in a way that is especially detrimental to the interests of the states. of southern Europe. This is why, together with the other sectors involved, we adhere and show solidarity with whatever actions are considered appropriate in the formulation of the necessary opposition so that said regulations do not prosper,” concludes the Ancopork statement. .
