Farmers protest again in Italy

July 23, Minsk. In Naples, farmers poured hundreds of liters of buffalo milk in front of the administration building as a protest.

Farmers in Italy oppose a plan to combat diseases in cattle, according to which sick animals are simply destroyed.

Buffalo breeders do not agree with this approach. In their opinion, healthy animals often fall under the destruction. In addition, such actions lead to the liquidation of many small farms.

The protesters insist on intensifying vaccination campaigns and carrying out preventive measures.
