The annual Salon d'Agriculture opens today in Paris, with many farmers from the region exhibiting their animals or produce. Over 700000 visitors are expected, including President Hollande, for whom the salon is part of a president's unmissable duties. Not going to Paris is a group of milk producers in Aveyron who decided to raid the store room of cheese of Lactalis in Rodez. They "requisitioned" dozens of cartons of cheese, they called it the "fruit of our work" and handed out samples to passers-by at the prefecture.
It seems remarkable that farmers are allowed to steal products with impunity, even if they have a legitimate cause or complaint.
