Sixteenth Day of 'Farmers Protest' Across Spain
A column of tractors arrives at the Government Delegation of the Canary Islands during the sixteenth day of protests of tractors on Spanish roads, February 21, 2024, in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Gran Canaria, Canary Islands (Spain). Farmers and ranchers from all over Spain have taken their tractors to the roads for the sixteenth consecutive day, to ask for improvements in the sector, including demanding aid to deal with the droughts suffered by the countryside. In addition, they are protesting against European policies and their lack of profitability. Hundreds of tractors began yesterday their slow march to Madrid where a large protest is planned today to give voice to the unease of the field. Farmers advance in five different columns that converge in the capital, trying to collapse traffic. This mobilization takes place five days after the meeting that the Minister of Agriculture had with agricultural associations in Madrid and ended without agreement despite the measures offered by Planas.
