Madness, they're really going after the food now. I think there are around 50,000 farms, so no doubt this is just the start.
They will probably keep the "essential" farms open.........
IMO this is just a scheme to jack prices up.
Serfs farm what, when, and if their Liege lord tells them to.
Wasn't this what the farmers were fighting..don't believe they just caved in
Long radio silence to this? We need more Dutch anons to give us the scoop of what has been going on
Insane.
Those poor farmers. No one farms because it's 'fun' in the traditional sense. They do it because it's what they love doing, and now the crappy governments want to put an end to that.
Nitrogen POLLUTION? Its a huge part of our atmosphere and literally plant food. Utterly stupid.
Pure insanity. Why are people going along with this shit?
So the farmers will just comply?
