"I am following the weather reports coming from the southern regions with great concern. I read of destroyed crops, of huge damages in the metapontino, of the Sassi and of the historical center of Matera literally invaded by the water and I am close to the populations, the enterprises, the local institutions, the Fire Brigade and the Civil Protection that in these hours find themselves facing the emergency.
I have already asked my offices to get in touch with the regional institutions and I renew to them our availability and collaboration in the estimation phase of the damage to the agricultural sector and of the activation of the necessary intervention tools.
Once again we verify the fragility of our territorial, urban, historical heritages, and how urgent it is to intervene forcefully, at all levels and calling for skills and knowledge, because the fight against hydrogeological instability is achieved only through active and sustainable management. of the territory, such as that - among others - that can be insured by the agricultural enterprise ".
