The average age of agricultural tractors circulating in Italy is still very high and this represents a risk not only for agricultural work but for road traffic. This was recalled by the general director of FederUnacoma, Simona Rapastella, participating in a meeting on road safety which was held on 22 March at the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport and which saw the participation of all the associations involved in various capacities in the thematic. On that occasion, the Minister of Infrastructure, Matteo Salvini, focused on the issue concerning the inspection of agricultural machines, recalling the long inoperative nature of the law passed in 2012 whilst promising at the same time a change of pace. "The Minister's commitment - said Rapastella - is really important because it presupposes because a more effective collaboration between the Ministry of Infrastructure and the Ministry of Agriculture which are both competent on this issue".
