The Council has called for a grant line for vaccination against salmonella in the egg-laying poultry farming sector with an allocation of 500,000 euros, an increase of 200,000 euros compared to the budget of the last published call.
These grants, integrated into the Strategic Grants Plan of the Department of Agriculture, Livestock, and Rural Development, aim to compensate for the cost of acquiring and applying vaccines that comply with the National Surveillance and Control Program for this disease and certain serotypes.
The beneficiaries of the grants, which will be distributed under a competitive basis and have a submission deadline ending on April 15, will be directly the poultry farmers who own laying hen farms of the species ‘Gallus gallus’ or the Poultry Livestock Health Defense Groups (ADS) to which they belong.
The eligible expenses are the purchase and application of vaccines destined for future reared laying hens in both Castilla y León farms and farms in another community, whose destination is egg production farms located in this Community, as well as the purchase and application of vaccines in the egg production farm itself. The maximum limit ranges from 0.04 euros to 0.08 euros per dose, depending on whether the vaccines are monovalent or bivalent, and the expense must be incurred directly by the poultry farmer or through their ADS.
