The farmers protests seen in Poland and Italy, come after strikes in the Netherlands have led to many supermarkets running out of food, as the anti-government movement continues.
The farmers are protesting due to their outrage over new government regulations that will force them to reduce their nitrogen fertiliser compounds, leading to a reduced number of their livestock, ultimately causing bankruptcy in family-owned businesses.
Video footage of the mass European farming protests is going viral on Twitter with one user posting:
“#Italy : The #farmers of #Bauern city came to the #streets and #blocked the roads in #protest of the #living #conditions and new #environmental #laws. #Bauernproteste #FarmerProtest #DutchFarmersProtest #GermanFarmers #Poland”
