After the Dutch government proposed an emission reduction plan to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers and reduce the number of livestock, Dutch farmers began to hold protests from July 4, local time, driving tractors to block roads, and protesters sprayed manure at the police.
According to reports, the Dutch government last month proposed a goal of halving nitrogen emissions by 2030, which requires reducing the number of farm animals and the use of ammonia-containing fertilizers. It is expected to reduce the number of livestock by 30%.
The move sparked protests from farmers.
