The protests by farmers and agricultural producers are into their second day.
Farmers from the region of Blagoevgrad brought a herd of goats out onto Struma motorway. Agricultural producers blocked off the roads leading to the border check points Kardam and Durankulak, the Dobrich-Silistra road, as well as the main road Sofia-Varna at Sheremetya village near Veliko Turnovo. The protesters from Plovdiv blocked off the roundabout at Trud village on the Plovdiv-Karlovo road. About 100 farmers from Kurdzhali region joined the protest of agricultural producers on the Haskovo-Dimitrovgrad road.
Agricultural producers attempted to block off Trakia motorway but were prevented from doing so by the law enforcement officers policing the protest and were restricted to the emergency lane.
The protesters do not agree with the government-proposed package of measures amounting to 150 million Leva (EUR 76.6 million), or with the requirement that they present their tax returns to show whether they were at a loss last year.
