the FNSEA calls for new mobilizations “everywhere in France” on December 9 and 10

This new wave of actions will be “around income, around the relationship with the price of our products”, specified Arnaud Rousseau, the president of the majority agricultural union.

The FNSEA plans to mobilize farmers again, “everywhere in France”on December 9 and 10 around the theme of income. This was announced by the president of the first agricultural union, Arnaud Rousseau, on Friday November 29 on RMC. According to him, the objective is to “conclude the cycle” with a meeting with the Prime Minister. “We need concrete results to be achieved”he said.

After demonstrating against the agreement between the European Union and Mercosur and for the “simplification” standards, this new wave of actions will be “around income, around the relationship with the price of our products, particularly in the context of the start of commercial relations, of negotiation with distributors. And therefore we will be in action”explained Arnaud Rousseau.

On Thursday, around a hundred farmers erected a concrete block wall in front of the Paris headquarters of the National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and the Environment (INRAE), which they accuse of no longer “give means” to produce and impose on them ever more “constraints”.
