Farmers block with their tractors the A15 highway near Argenteuil, north of Paris on January 30, 2024. Protesting farmers prepared to encircle Paris with traffic-snarling barricades for a second day Tuesday, using hundreds of lumbering tractors and mounds of hay bales to block highways leading to France's capital to pressure the government over the future of their industry, which has been shaken by repercussions of the Ukraine war. PM Attal's government was expected to announce new measures on Tuesday following talks with farmers' unions, after pro-agriculture measures unveiled last week fell short of their demands that producing food should be more lucrative, easier and fairer.
