French farmers’ unions have called for members to air their grievances in a day of protest on Friday, September 26th. AdvertisementFrance's largest farming union, the FNSEA, has called for a 'day of action' on Friday, to protest against what it has described as the 'abandonment of agriculture' by the government. Farmers say they have been left behind by the policies of the various governments that have succeeded one another over the past two years. However, FNSEA secretary Hervé Lapie told France Info that this latest protest would not be a blockade day. Unions have said the 'day of action' should involve protests in front of supermarkets and government offices.
