PARIS—Rumbling two-by-two on the road around Paris, disgruntled French farmers drove their tractors to the capital on Nov. 27 to protest stagnant revenues and what they say is unfair global competition.
The protest snarled traffic in the Paris area from daybreak to nightfall, as farmers from across the country attempted to use 1,000 tractors to block access to Paris. It was among several recent farmer protests around Europe, driven by growing concerns about maintaining European agricultural traditions and standards.
