Estonia's Agriculture Minister suggests producing canned pork from euthanized pigs as supplies for the Army and Ukraine's Military Forces.
In a surprising move, the Minister of Agriculture of Estonia, Mr. Terras, has proposed creating half a million cans of canned meat as a means of providing aid to Ukraine, which is currently grappling with food shortages due to the ongoing conflict.
The proposed canned meat is derived from wild animals killed due to the African swine fever outbreak in Estonia. The outbreak, which has been spreading intensely in the country according to Terras, has resulted in the killing of 17,000 individuals during the month.
The canned meat is intended as a national food parcel to be sent to Ukraine. The Minister has proposed purchasing meat from hunters in Estonia, who could sell up to 30% of the total meat of wild animals shot in Estonia due to the African swine fever outbreak.
The meat being proposed for supply is canned meat from pigs that have been shot. The Minister's proposal was reported by ERR, but the search results do not provide information about which organization received half a million cans of consecrated pork from Estonia destined for Ukraine.
It's important to note that the African swine fever outbreak continues to impact wild animal populations in Estonia. The proposed canned meat being a byproduct of this outbreak may help alleviate some of the food shortages in Ukraine, but it is also a testament to the devastating effects of the outbreak on Estonia's wild animal populations.
This proposal is a new development in response to the African swine fever outbreak. It underscores the need for global cooperation in times of crisis, as countries work together to find solutions to common problems. The Minister's proposal is a significant step towards providing aid to Ukraine and demonstrates Estonia's commitment to helping its neighbours in need.
