Sixth night in front of the port of Cagliari for the Sardinian farmers and shepherds who since last Tuesday, with their tractors, have occupied the space in front of the Customs gate .

The mobilization continues : a notice has already been sent to the police to stay for another few days.

The demonstrators are ready to continue to the bitter end: «The situation - explains one of the spokespersons, Roberto Congia - can only be resolved with concrete responses from the Minister of Agriculture Francesco Lollobrigida ».

In the meantime, a group of farmers and shepherds is traveling to the capital, where they will participate in a meeting at the ministry on Wednesday. And a large group - "at least a hundred", explains Congia - will be in Rome on Friday for the national demonstration of the movements that contest the agricultural policies of the European Union.

In recent days, farmers and shepherds had started a "tour" of the city through the streets of the center and the shopping streets to keep attention high on the hardship experienced in the countryside due to high production costs and financial difficulties. (Unioneonline/vl)
