Basilicata farmers announce indefinite strike in Vulture Alto Bradano

The Coordinamento Agricoltori Basilicata has joined an indefinite strike in the Vulture Alto Bradano region, alongside local farmers and transporters. The group is protesting against several unresolved economic and operational issues.

Key grievances include high fuel costs, a lack of compensation for weather-related damages, and crop destruction caused by wildlife. Additionally, farmers expressed frustration that they are still personally responsible for the costs of training courses and personal protective equipment (PPE).

The organization has called on regional leaders to move beyond verbal solidarity and take legislative action. They specifically criticized the silence of the President of the Regional Council, Marcello Pittella, demanding immediate concrete responses to the sector's financial difficulties.
