They had warned. Farmers are relaunching their mobilization to make their demands heard. They expressed their anger towards the executive by covering up the automatic radars.
The Departmental Federation of Farmers' Unions (FDSEA) of Oise and the Young Farmers (JA) of Oise began to cover the radars on the roadsides of the department on the evening of Thursday, November 14.
On their social networks, the agricultural unions of the departments are renewing their call to demonstrate on November 18. “Since January 2024, the government has been taking us for a ride,” it says in the clip. Income, cash flow aid, simplification, EU-Mercosur agreement… The birds hide to die, not the farmers… The fight continues! We don't give up ! Isarian farmers, get ready…”, they wrote in a post published on Facebook.
Already at the beginning of October, farmers began to remove town entrance signs. Farmers could submit them to the Departmental Directorate of Territories at Beauvais on November 18 on the occasion of their demonstration.
With this movement, farmers denounce the agreement with Mercosur (economic alliance of free trade with South American countries). “The agreement with Mercosur means 180,000 tonnes of poultry imported into Europe (or nearly 28% of European poultry meat imports), coming from breeding countries using growth-promoting antibiotics banned in France since 2006 ! To protect French poultry, let's defend the French poultry sector against unfair competition, not respecting our production standards!
