Eleven of the 16 fur farms in Flanders and the region s only producer of foie gras have announced that they are to close down, Flemish minister of animal welfare Ben Weyts has announced.
As part of an agreement to assist in the gradual phasing out of activities, financial compensation will be granted. From April, this premium will decrease over time in order to convince the companies still active to close as quickly as possible. By the end of 2023, in line with a government order, all these companies must close their doors for good.
From April, financial compensation for fur farm owners will be reduced by 10%. In April 2022, the premium will be further reduced by an additional 10%, and by the same margin again in April 2023.
