A meager Christmas dinner threatens now that farmers are considering shutting down the food supply in the Netherlands. Minister Carola Schouten (Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality) is not yet concerned, but the supermarkets are.
Schouten says that he is in talks with the Agricultural Collective about the nitrogen approach. However, Farmers Defense Force (FDF) feels because of the minister , ignored and threatens to block distribution centers in the run-up to Christmas. Schouten tells the ANP not to worry.
The CBL, the branch organization of supermarkets, does take this threat seriously. According to the organization, blocking actions during the busiest time of the year are very inconvenient, with the consumer ultimately bearing the brunt. That is why the CBL calls on the cabinet to continue to talk to farmers and to look for solutions.
Monday night resolution
Incidentally, disrupting the food supply in the Netherlands is not the only weapon that FDF currently threatens with. The shutdown of the fuel supply and the blocking of border crossings are also mentioned. A combination of both is also possible. Monday evening the decision is made. Other action groups, including Grond in Verzet, may also join in.
By the way, farmers want to prevent the turkey from flying over Christmas. That is why FDF is in the process of drawing up a list of farm shops per province where consumers can buy their groceries.

Getting the government to resign is the stupidest thing you can aspire to. Then we will be in an impasse even longer!
Keep calm and discuss Agricultural collective! Don't be fooled by the FFD-ers!
Here, 13 hectares of grassland have just been sold to three farmers, all three of whom are very fond of the FFD. EUR 95.000 to 100.000 per hectare and oh oh but complain... and make consumers afraid that we will soon have a starvation winter because there are no farmers left. Speaking of framing... I'm distancing myself from this.
We must block the head offices of supermarket chains, Rabobank, VVD, CDA, LTO, Ministry of Economic Affairs, etc.: the real causes of the misery in the past and present. Then I join. Don't hit the civilians.
KJOL, a left-wing rascal at the time, is now a populist with blinders on all the presidents of Russia and the USA. ...Probably they put him like a horse behind the cart. So a sponsored tool without its own opinion.
