While field work continues (corn harvest and sowing of straw cereals), FDSEA + JA of Vendée
are fully part of the national action of opposition to Mercosur. At the same time as the G20 meeting in
Brazil, to denounce “sieve Europe” several actions are being organized in the department such as:
➤ Monday November 18 from 6 a.m. in front of the Fontenay-le-Comte sub-prefecture;
➤ Monday November 18 from 11 a.m. in front of the La Ferrière town entrance sign (coming from La Roche-surYon);
➤ Monday November 18 from 6 p.m. at the Europe roundabout in Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie.
Likewise, sporadically throughout the department from November 18, the entrance signs of
communities will see themselves covered up.
Beyond Mercosur, the FDSEA+JA demands of Vendée are:
1. Short-term and cash flow measures to support farmers;
2. Drastic administrative simplification through government-led measures;
3. Legislate to put entrepreneurial spirit back at the heart of agricultural policies;
4. Stop European and global inconsistencies: to restore ambition to food sovereignty
