Two days after the blocking of the Intermarché logistics platform in Noyant-de-Touraine, at the initiative of Rural Coordination 37, the anger of farmers in Indre-et-Loire does not weaken. At the end of the week, several department radars were taken out of service. Difficult to know how much.
On the D910, in Sainte-Catherine-de-Fierbois, the radar located in the Loches-Tours direction was covered with agricultural packaging. Further away, in Sorigny, in the opposite direction, the autonomous radar installed in front of the airfield has been covered with plastic. In front, a pile of manure has been placed.
