Blood farms in Iceland: new regulations, but we want a definitive stop. Sign the petition

06/06/2022

Bad news from Iceland: the working group established by the Icelandic Agriculture Minister Svandís Svavarsdóttir published its report with recommendations. On the basis of this report, the Minister decided to issue a regulation on PMSG production, which will stipulate what conditions the activity must meet and that the activity is subject to a license. Under these conditions, blood farming is allowed to continue for another three years but will be under increased monitoring. After this period, the authorities will take a final decision about the future of the activity.

IHP is an independent association dedicated to the welfare of all equids. We combat abuse and ill-treatment and strive for a legislative and cultural change that can lead to the recognition of the rights of horses. We also run the first rescue centre in Italy for equines seized for mistreatment. We do not receive any public funding, nor are we reimbursed by the Public Prosecution Offices for the custody of the horses handed over to us. We can only count on donations and fundraising initiatives. You too can participate in our activities or support us with a donation of any amount.
