French farmers could stage more protests and blockades in the coming weeks to push the government to deliver on its promises to help the sector, the head of France’s largest farming union FNSEA said on Sunday. Farmers across Europe have been protesting for weeks over what they say are excessively restrictive environmental rules, competition from cheap imports from outside the European Union, plus rising costs and low incomes. Union boss Arnaud Rousseau was speaking to BFM TV on the last day of the Paris agricultural fair and ahead of a meeting between President Emmanuel Macron, farmers’ union representatives and other stakeholders at the Elysee palace in mid-March. “To expect that in 15 days it will all be over is a mistake. Farmers need something concrete … There could be a number of actions to make sure things happen in coming days,” Rousseau said, without providing further details. “The embers are hot, this is not over … some regions are planning to keep up the protests,” he said. On Feb. 24, a group of French farmers stormed into the Paris agricultural show ahead a visit by Macron, disrupting the start of the fair.
