Farmers call a major tractor protest in Santander and other cities
Published
The organisation UNASPI has called a major tractor protest in Santander and other cities. Farmers and livestock breeders want to show their discontent with the current situation of the agricultural sector.
In their demands, the organisation calls for fair prices for agricultural products. It also demands less bureaucracy, which they consider a daily obstacle to farmers' work. In addition, it calls for a Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) that guarantees the viability of farms.
The mobilisation is part of a series of protests by the agricultural sector to draw the attention of the administrations and society. The organisers hope that the gathering of tractors will be visible on the main streets of the cities where it has been called.
For the time being, the call confirms the farmers' unease with the economic and administrative conditions of their work. The coming days will be important in determining whether the authorities respond to these demands.
