The French Biodiversity Office (OFB) has been the target of farmers for two months. Around thirty departmental offices of this public establishment were the subject of tags, spreading of manure or dumping of tires by angry farmers.
In Dijon, the first names of two agents were even written on the public building, accompanied by the words ‘transfer’ “We feel stigmatized. We are humiliated, we don’t know how we are going to go back to carry out checks on the farms,” says OFB Board of Directors member Éric Gourdin.
