The Councilor for Agriculture Javea Town Hall, Tere Bisquert, Has echoed the complaints received through the Consell Agrari And has called on owners of rustic land to have them in good condition and prevent them, in addition to increasing the risk of fire and creating a bad image, become a source of problems for those who still cultivate in their own.
El Consell Agrari Has dealt with the extra problematic that it supposes for the people who make the effort to keep agriculture alive in the municipality, "Having neighboring lands full of weeds makes them the focus of snail and grass pests for all kinds of animals that later devour the crops"They say.
As indicated by the mayor, from the department of agriculture "Work is being done on an awareness campaign on this matter, which is regulated by the Municipal Ordinance, and the Local Police are carrying out informative tasks before instructing sanction files on those who have their dirty land.".
Bisquert explained that "In cases where owners do not take action, they will eventually have to be sanctioned." In some cases dry weeds and shrubs even invade surrounding fields, aggravating their risk of burning in case of fire and multiplying the work of farmers.
Tere Bisquert has emphasized that having the land in good condition, besides contributing to a good general image and giving value to the agricultural land can even be useful for people who do have interest in harvesting encourage you to rent it.
The hassle and work of a neighboring abandoned field are enormous. In April, I managed to remove 267 snails from a little tree of just over one meter. Within a week it was full again. It should be possible to report the plots that look like a jungle ANONYMOUSLY, since with the way we have to be the Spanish if your neighbor finds out that it was you who has denounced it and forced to spend money on cleaning of the plot, on top of all the inconvenience that he has caused you for years, you will already have him as an enemy for life and he will never want to sell or rent you his land ...
What you have to do is notify the owner and if you do not do it in a reasonable time, the City Council cleans it and passes the bill to the owner (thus creating jobs). Because the truth is as dangerous as the weeds and weathers but with this heat. Any day there is another fire and nobody is responsible
