Farmers Decide on Actions Against Animal Culling
May 5, 2026
Farmers are determined to take action if the culling of animals due to foot-and-mouth disease is not stopped. Decisions on their next steps will be made during a meeting tonight. The Veterinary Association emphasized that the European legislation is uniform and allows no differentiation. It is highlighted that failure to apply these regulations could lead to a ban on halloumi exports. Farmers are waiting for specific information regarding compensation amounts.
