We live in a small village called Viella in the Gers (32400) A local agriculteur has been granted permission to build an intensive duck farm right next to our tourism business- www.frenchactivityholidays.com
L'agriculteur est propriétaire de 115 hectares dans notre village donc il a le choix, il peut construire ailleurs.
The farmer owns 115 hectares in our village so he has a choice, he can build elsewhere.
Fermes de canard odeur, sont bruyants et il ya des plumes partout.
Duck farms smell, are noisy and there are feathers everywhere.
Nous avons passé plus de 2 ans la rénovation de notre maison et de construire notre entreprise. La ferme de canard va nous faire perdre des clients et par conséquent, nous serons obligés de fermer.
We have spent over 2 yrs renovating our home and building our business. The duck farm will cause us to lose customers and therefore we will be forced to close down.

The feedback from local residents has reinforced the necessity of protecting our village atmosphere. We are currently preparing a formal inquiry to address the specific placement of the proposed structure.

Fabulous place to stay and it would be such a tragedy to lose something so beautiful to something so cruel.
This man is just being vindictive. Let him put the ducks on another part of his land
This duck farm should be built elsewhere not ruining peoples live's and destroying a wonderful tourism business which was bringing people to the area who would spend their money locally
We have been quite for a while but the fight continues. The date for the tribunal should be either the end of this year or early next year - but that is just for the buildings, we can also start a case against the ducks if / when they arrive. On their part, they are taking a MASSIVE risk by starting building work before the tribunal - who can know what decision a panel of judges will make? If they lose their case the buildings will have to come down, simple as that! We will not give up, despite their attempts at bullying us, our fight goes on stronger than ever!
C est vraiment n importe quoi de laisser construire une usine a canards juste a cote d un lieu de vacances aussi paisible. Viella a besoin de touristes pas de nuisances sonores et d odeurs nauséabondes.

People who work hard to build their businesses to enrich others enjoyment should not be penalised or have that business ruined when the farmer has alternatives.
