Farmers protest loudly at the groundbreaking ceremony with Scholz. 16,000 people will live in the planned Dietenbach district.
Farmers complain about the loss of agricultural land due to the construction of the district. Conservationists criticize that deforestation destroys the habitat of animal species worthy of protection. For security reasons, the area was cordoned off and aircraft were temporarily not allowed to fly over it. The protest signs that were attached to many tractors read: “If the farmer is ruined, your food will be imported!” and “It's not just about diesel. It’s about all of our futures”
