Police Clash With Hundreds Of Protesting Farmers - Madrid

A tractor in front of the Ministry of Agriculture during the sixteenth day of protests by tractors on Spanish roads, February 21, 2024, in Madrid, Spain. Farmers and ranchers from all over Spain have taken their tractors out on the roads for the sixteenth consecutive day, to demand improvements in the sector, including 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.
