Agricultural workers in several European countries say that green policies and taxes are eating into their profits, with farmers calling for more government subsidies.
Farmer protests have sprung up in France, Germany and Romania ahead of the 2024 European Parliament election in June. The farmers' demands vary in general, but they are all suffering from environmental reforms and need more government subsidies to offset their losses.
Farmers in France forced government to address agricultural issues
Over the past few days, mass protests in Southern France have forced the government to address farmers' issues.
On Jan. 22, Prime Minister Gabriel Attal met with Arnaud Rousseau, the president of the National Federation of Agricultural Operators' Unions (FNSEA).
Earlier, farmers warned that they would continue to block some motorways until Attal listened to their demands. The FNSEA has since announced that it will decide later in January whether it will call for nationwide action.
