Farmers in central, northern Greece beginning mobilisations on Monday

Farmers in the regions of Macedonia, Thrace and Thessaly will begin mobilisations on Monday following the “fruitless”, as they termed it, meeting with the Agricultural Development ministry’s leadership in which the issues concerning them were discussed.

Famers of the Independent Agricultural Societies of the Serres prefecture will take to the streets with their tractors at 11 on Monday morning. The farmers will have the Promahonas border checkpoint as their destination, while their intentions include the closure of the Greek-Bulgarian borders with their tractors.

In Larissa, the prefecture’s farmers’ committee has appealed to the region’s farmers to participate in the mobilisation that will begin after 12 noon with an initial gathering at the Gyrtoni intersection.
