Farmers Protest in Achterhoek During Visit by Máxima, All Mayors, and Jetten: 'It Is Good That They Do This'
Farmers gathered along the route to Lichtenvoorde during the VNG congress to demand that Agriculture Minister Jaimi van Essen withdraw nitrogen plans, citing high investment costs and unprepared tracking systems. Prime Minister Rob Jetten acknowledged the protest positively, stating it is good that farmers voice their concerns as the cabinet prepares important decisions on the nitrogen package. While many municipalities sent letters supporting the farmers, others did not, reflecting divided local responses to the agricultural policy disputes.
