The farmers also showed up around half past three this afternoon. They protested at the Truckstar Festival in Assen, in close consultation with the organization, against the government’s nitrogen policy. About twenty tractors carrying flags, banners, signs and slogans against government policy made a round of the circuit.
The two branches (agriculture and transport) are closely involved, because what the farmers produce is transported by the transport sector. The farmers received a lot of support: they were applauded loudly and the drivers were shouting ‘farmers!’ scanned.
