Fed up French farmers spray manure on government buildings in protest

Farmers in Dijon, France have staged a massive gathering of up to 80 tractors that saw them dumb and spray multiple Regional Council buildings with manure.

The farmers have been protesting increased diesel prices, higher taxes, climate policies and agricultural policies.

Those leading the protests are The National Federation of Agricultural Holders’ Unions (FNSEA) and Young Farmers, or Jeunes Agriculteurs (JA), headed by Arnaud Rousseau and Arnaud Gaillot.

Farmers have been protesting against the government since November.

Farmers in the southern Tarn departments in France began turning road signs upside down, this protest would then spread all over the country.

In Quimper, France protesters would also spray government buildings with manure.
