Behind all the lights there is also a clear message. The parades aim to portray the agricultural sector in a positive way and bring farmers and citizens closer together. “These are challenging times for the sector. With this initiative we show agriculture in a beautiful and connecting way, and we bring light and atmosphere to these dark days,” it says.
Illuminated tractors will be driving at several locations in West Flanders until February 13. More information and a complete overview of the parades can be found on the website National Guilds.
