The government has announced a tax exemption on non-road diesel (GNR) used by farmers, amid persistent pressure on energy prices. This measure aims to ease the burden on farms, which have been heavily impacted by rising fuel costs.
The government intends to support the agricultural sector by limiting the impact of price fluctuations, particularly in an unstable international context. Non-road diesel (GNR) is a key expense for many agricultural activities, especially mechanized work.
The unions deemed the aid insufficient.
The FNSEA, however, strongly criticized this announcement, arguing that the proposed measures fall far short of the sector's needs. The main agricultural union described them as "crumbs" in light of the scale of the difficulties faced by farmers.
Professional organizations are calling for broader and more sustainable measures to offset rising costs. This latest disagreement illustrates the ongoing tensions between the government and the agricultural sector regarding economic support.
