Greek farmers prepare for nationwide mobilisations over income

·

Farmers across Greece are gearing up for significant mobilisations to demand higher income, reduced production costs, and changes to compensation regulations.

Farmers in Northern Greece have already scheduled protests, with blockades set to begin in Palamas, Thessaly.

Meanwhile, coordination committees in Southern Greece, including Messinia, are finalising their plans, with major actions expected in early February.

A recent mobilisation in Crete also highlighted the growing discontent. In Messinia, the Federation of Farmers’ Associations has called for a large-scale protest, backed by widespread support from farmers and livestock producers, to escalate in the first half of February.
