The anger of French farmers spread to Belgium this Friday. Young Walloon farmers have turned over the signs at the entrance and exit of towns and villages in certain regions. In the province of Liège, a snail operation as well as filter dams will gradually be put in place during the morning, we followed farmers who were setting off for the convoy this Friday morning.
Jonathan is a dairy farmer and explains the two main issues farmers face. “The first big problem is that our expenses increased with our selling prices last year, but for a while now, our prices have decreased while our expenses have remained the same. The second problem is that we must meet all the standards of the Walloon Region imposed by Apaq-W, and these standards are increasingly restrictive.“.
