Minister Òscar Ordeig announced the opening of the file this Thursday, confirming that the Capmany farm has become a new focus of the disease. This outbreak requires the culling of 106 cows to contain the spread.
The investigation seeks to determine whether sanctions will be applied for failing to comply with the mandatory vaccination requirement, a crucial preventive measure for the health of Catalan livestock.
“"The country has a lot at stake."
Ordeig detailed that the Department of Agriculture had previously sent “a written warning” to the farm when it was detected that not all livestock had been vaccinated, emphasizing the importance of prevention to avoid such episodes.
