Verskeie landbou-organisasies, waaronder Vrystaat Landbou (VL), die Suider-Afrika Agri-inisiatief (SAAI) en Sakeliga, het formele regsstappe teen die staat ge\u00efnisieer oor die verkryging en toediening van entstowwe teen bek-en-klouseer (BKS). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die organisasies eis dat die staat se monopolie oor BKS-entstowwe be\u00ebindig word om boere toe te laat om privaat entstowwe te verkry en toe te dien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die organisasies het vroe\u00ebr die week, deur hul regsverteenwoordiger, \u2019n eisbrief aan die Minister van Landbou John Steenhuisen en senior staatsamptenare gerig. In die brief word ge\u00ebis dat daar teen Vrydag 30 Januarie skriftelike bevestiging gegee word dat veeboere toegelaat sal word om, in samewerking met staats- en privaat veeartse, privaat entstowwe te verkry en toe te dien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens die president van Vrystaat Landbou, Francois Wilken, volg di\u00e9 stap n\u00e1 maande van onsekerheid, beperkte kommunikasie en toenemende BKS-uitbrekings onder \u2019n gesentraliseerde, staatsbeheerde stelsel. Hy waarsku dat die voortbestaan van Suid-Afrika se veeboerdery- en vleisbedryf in gevaar is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die organisasies voer aan dat hul lede se grondwetlike regte, waaronder die reg om \u2019n beroep vrylik te beoefen, die reg op eiendom en die reg op menswaardigheid, ernstig geskend word. Dit volg te midde van \u2019n BKS-uitbreking wat reeds oor verskeie provinsies versprei het en volgens die minister van landbou s\u00f3 ernstig is dat die afkondiging van \u2019n nasionale ramptoestand oorweeg word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tydens \u2019n nuuskonferensie op Woensdag 14 Januarie het die minister aangekondig dat die staat se strategie daarop gemik is om die hele nasionale veekudde teen BKS te ent. Landbou-organisasies s\u00ea egter boere wag steeds op \u2019n duidelike en uitvoerbare plan, asook \u2019n realistiese tydlyn vir die entstofuitrol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In die eisbrief word verskeie kernbekommernisse uitgelig, waaronder die staat se eksklusiewe beheer oor die verkryging en toediening van entstowwe tydens \u2019n ernstige dieregesondheidskrisis, die tekort aan beskikbare entstowwe, en die verbod op boere om hul kuddes self te beskerm deur privaat inenting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die organisasies voer aan dat daar geen wetlike of rasionele rede is om privaat inenting te verbied nie en dat dit die staat se las sal verlig en die uitrol van entstowwe kan versnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Wilken is daar betroubare entstofverskaffers wat gereed is om die privaat sektor te bedien, en hy beklemtoon dat privaat toegang tot entstowwe nie die staat se eie voorraad sal benadeel nie. Hy waarsku verder dat \u2019n beduidende deel van veeboere reeds die risiko van totale bedryfsineenstorting in die gesig staar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nog \u2019n bron van kommer is die vertraging met die uitreiking van permitte ingevolge Artikel 21 van die Wet op Medisyne en Verwante Stowwe, 1965, aan privaat maatskappye. Hoewel die minister aangedui het dat die privaat sektor by invoere betrek word, bestaan daar onsekerheid oor of boere entstowwe direk sal kan verkry en self toedien binne die bestaande veeartsenynetwerk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die organisasies waarsku ook dat huidige regulasies en protokolle boere onredelik beperk en nie vir die huidige omvang van die krisis ontwerp is nie, wat ernstige finansi\u00eble gevolge vir die bedryf kan inhou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Indien daar geen bevredigende reaksie teen die gestelde sperdatum ontvang word nie, sal verdere regsoptrede oorweeg word. Volgens die organisasies is die stappe daarop gemik om die belange van die landboubedryf, voedselsekerheid en die bre\u00ebr ekonomie te beskerm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
