"Tractor Blockades: German Farmers Protest Agriculture Policies"
German farmers are protesting the government's plans to reduce or withdraw tax breaks for the agriculture sector, which they say would endanger their livelihood. The protests involve blocking roads with tractors, dumping hay and manure, and calling for new elections. The government has walked back some of its plans, but the farmers' association says it's not enough and has pushed ahead with protests. Lawmakers and the minister for economic affairs and climate action have also called for a reevaluation of the policy plans, acknowledging the economic pressures faced by farmers.
