Tractor protest against EU agricultural policies held by Czech farmers
Czech farmers were driving their tractors and other vehicles to several border crossings on Thursday to meet colleagues from neighbouring countries and join forces in their protests against European Union (EU) agriculture policies.
Farmers complain that the 27-nation EU’s environmental policies, such as the Green Deal, which calls for limits on the use of chemicals and on greenhouse gas emissions, limit their business and make their products more expensive than non-EU imports.
