Editorial: Le Monde

• There's a growing protest among farmers in France and some neighboring countries; their hostility towards President Emmanuel Macron is marked.
• The French government has been primarily negotiating with the FNSEA and the Young Farmers, but the inclusion of the radical collective The Earth Uprisings led to the event's boycott by the FNSEA and JA.
• Farmers have won several concessions in less than a month, including the loosening of environmental norms and financial relief measures.
• These concessions are endangering the ecological transition commitments taken at national and European level.

Conclusion: This situation needs to be redirected through a collective rethink of how to carry out the ecological transition, clearly defining the objectives of French agriculture, and considering the responsibility of distributors and consumers in the demand for low prices. A national debate involving all parties is needed.
